Selling what was my project car turned daily driver. Would probably give a crazy good Oppo discount if somebody is interested as I’m not loving dealing with the Craigslist bros.

Dang that’s a nice subie! If it was 7,900 (and if my parents let me) I’d give it a go bc I have next to no money

I really want to see some screen caps of emails and texts from Subaru bros.

Man, you are 4 years to early for me. If I was out of school and financially stable...

I love STi resale values. 10 years old. 146,000 miles. Nearly 18 grand.

Also, prepare for your inbox to be filled with “will u take 2 stacks n my [beat to shit] 350z for trade?”

I’d love to own it!

But I am a broke boy.

*It’s ALWAYS a 350Z*

Yeah...it’s crazy. NADA for that mileage was 18,800. It does only have 3k miles on most of the powertrain, but the resale is crazy.

Do you even bro, bro? Of course the car is comes with vapes, flat brimmed hats, and neon sunglasses. Thought that was self explanatory so I didn’t mention it in the ad!

Out of my budget and not a hatch, but I am really considering a WRX in that generation (or the couple before it) to use as a daily. Although I have been leaning towards a Mazdaspeed3 just because they are a little nicer for my budget (under $10k). I REALLY like the mods you have for it though, its not a bunch of stupid crap bolted on.

Hopefully someone else can appreciate that and you dont have to sell it too low.

And don’t get me started on the 350Zs haha. I’ve had a lot of beat to hell and back trade offers for a 2-3k car w/ “cash on top”

10/10 would recommend a WRX if you can find a stock one, and don’t beat on the 5-speed. I’ve had a few Mazdaspeed3 trade offers, but that doesn’t really help my excess of vehicles problem.

Go read the FP article on the new Crosstrek. This is a Subaru, so it drinks all the oil and has all the transmission issues. Ever.

But this one is so pretty...

Engine failure like you faced is what has me so worried about Subarus in general though. I mean I have heard firsthand stories of MS3 blowing engines too but that was after being heavily tuned. Either way, I plan to keep the car stock so I guess I wouldnt face issues with either choice.

Although having a ridiculously fast STI as a daily driver would be fun. I think my girlfriend would get pissed off though if it was always broken and I end up just driving my Miata with 6 pt harnesses all the time lol.

What went wrong with the original powertrain?

BKosher84 > Needmoargarage

I’ll give you $3.50 and a package of skittles.

Oops sorry didn’t read your ad. Feel free to ignore my stupid question.

Financially stable? In that case he’s 40 years early for you.

Needmoargarage > Wrong Wheel Drive (41%)
07/17/2017 at 11:59

Yeah. I think it’s less about being stock and more about knowing the weak points of these engines and correcting it. That and being OCD about maintenance.

I like it but don’t have anywhere near the money. Good luck with selling it! What is the I/C Water Spray Button?

Needmoargarage > Captain of the Enterprise
07/17/2017 at 12:10

Thanks! It’s a bit silly, but from the factory STI’s have an intercooler sprayer. It’s very similar to a windshield washer system, but has nozzles on the underside of the hood aimed at the intercooler.

I’m a fan of the car but not of that particular nose treatment.

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > Dusty Ventures
07/17/2017 at 12:15

True. I’m holding out hope that someday I might be able to buy myself something nice. Or not.

It’s grown on me, but the center grill still looks a bit off to me.

You are making way too much sense to be selling on Craigslist. What about BaT? Your car is definitely clean enough.

AddictedToM3s - Drives a GC > Needmoargarage
07/17/2017 at 13:26

I would trade my BRZ for it. (Am serious)

Edit: nevermind. I read the ad and saw no trades. Good luck with your sale! Very clean example.

Captain of the Enterprise > Needmoargarage
07/17/2017 at 13:28

I think that’s cool. Do you have to refill the sprayer then like you do with washer fluid?

Needmoargarage > Wrong Wheel Drive (41%)
07/17/2017 at 13:35

Hmm. Didn’t think about that. In my opinion the car is a bit too pieced together to make it on BaT. Not that it was done poorly, but I would expect a <20k mile pristine unmodified STI to show up on there...not this.

Needmoargarage > Captain of the Enterprise
07/17/2017 at 13:36

Yup. Otherwise you get a little annoying warning light on the dash. To be honest though, I’ve never used it. Can’t imagine it’s particularly effective for normal daily driving.

Needmoargarage > AddictedToM3s - Drives a GC
07/17/2017 at 13:37

Haha oh no. That’s one of the few cars I could be tempted by, but I don’t really need more cars. At the risk of becoming seriously interested, give me some basic info on the BRZ.

TahoeSTi > Needmoargarage
07/17/2017 at 13:37

That’s and 07 (stock tune sucks will blow motors), Unless the rims have been swapped, I already have an 06.....I’ll take the rear diff if they decide to part it out.

Edit: just saw the link to the ad.

MonkeePuzzle > Needmoargarage
07/17/2017 at 16:28

oh thank goodness it’s not near me! dont tempt me like that!

hey... before it goes, snag the dash clock and send it my way. The new owner will never know !

Kbb puts it at about 10 grand. wonder why there is such a huge difference between nada and kbb

Needmoargarage > Aaron James
07/18/2017 at 11:37

Yeah, I’ve never really refer to kbb any more as it has been so far off the market value in many cases, especially with enthusiast vehicles. I think my current asking price is too high, but I’ve had quite a bit of interest already.

Aaron James > Needmoargarage
07/18/2017 at 11:45

They are way off on BMWs also. There was a 330 I think that sold on BAT for 12500 and kbb had it listed at like 3800.

E92M3 > Highlander-Datsuns are Forever

I think that nose/bodystyle is the best looking STI to date.
