Figured I’d let the Oppo world know...just put an ad up for the Subaru.
Of course let me know if anyone on here might be curious.

Subarus are amazing... they do not understand depreciation

So I guess a stick shift BRZ from the right coast wouldn’t work for you...

There is much scoffing at such pedestrian concerns...

it blows my mind they made this car. it would keep up with an s4 avant of the era and walk a v70R not to mention being slightly faster than a wrx and tunable to sti spec.

i know its not explicitly stated in the rule book, and no one seems to abuse it, but are there any regs on posting for sale ads on oppo?
[sorry to single you out... and this isn’t directed at you specifically. and your post is completely reasonable. good luck with the sale!]

Hence the reason we’re pretty set on replacing this with a newer Subaru :) I wish I could get an STi - but wife doesn’t drive stick, and it’s impossible to find an STi from ANY year for less than $25k.
As far as the Legacy GT goes - more car and much better looks and materials than a WRX of the same vintage, at a comparable or often lower price!

A car that’s on the list but unfortunately not for us right now. I’m lucky I’m getting to keep the E30 - street parking 3 cars in San Francisco is no fun (especially when you don’t drive to work!).

I’m a sucker for the styling of the V70R but I’ll take the reliability and AWD of the Subaru over that any day. A friend who drives a B7 S4 Avant drove my car once and was very surprised - sad to see it go, but it is time (and it was either this or the E30 :P )

Yeah, honestly I don’t know. I’ll happily take it down if any of the mods take issue with it.
The only reason I shared it was because whenever I mention or post a picture of the car there is invariably someone who replies saying how much they lust after these things - figured I might as well let the Oppo world know mine is available before selling it to a random person off CL, or worse trade it in to a dealership.

here too when recently selling my car. i guess none of the regulars would have enough cars to make for sale ads a nuissance. and anyone who did abuse it would just have the posting priveledges revoked.
did you decide on what’s going to replace it?

Yeah, exactly - regular members won’t have enough cars for sale to make it an issue, and it’d be a pretty damn obscure place for a random seller to come start advertising.
We’re leaning towards a newer Forester or an XV Crosstrek (which will be replacing this and my wife’s Jeep Liberty). I don’t drive to work anymore and rarely drive this or the old E30 I have (and all 3 cars are being street parked right now being in the middle of the city. I’m getting to keep the E30 and we’re consolidating the other two into a newer car we can share - I’m fine with it being more of an appliance given how infrequently I even have the opportunity to drive.

E30S2k — this car is rad, do you mind if I feature it on DailyTurismo.com?

We [mods] discussed this recently and while I don’t think we decided anything conclusively, one idea that stuck was that once in a while is totally cool, and that as long as a person doesn’t get spammy about it and Oppo doesn’t get too crowded by it we’re content to leave them be.
