    This is my 3rd WRX and by far the most fun one I've owned. I bought it earlier this winter to get through the worst MN winter in recent history. I believe I am the third owner.

    Clean/clear title in hand.

    Interior: 8.5/10 (some wear on driver's seat but everything else is actually in great shape)
    Exterior: 8/10 (some dings and minor surface rust. Front bumper also came detached on left side after nudging a fresh snow bank)
    Mechanical: 8/10 (it's been at stage 2+ for the last 110,000 miles (mostly highway) and has not had any issues. It runs a little rich but I've never detected knock and zero transmission issues)

    2.0 turbo
    5 speed manual
    Winter tires on OEM wheels (some tread left - got me through this winter with zero issues)
    All-season tires on aftermarket Rota 6-spoke wheels (some tread left)

    VF39 turbo
    Silicone turbo inlet
    Modded stock injectors
    Front mount intercooler
    TGV delete
    Aftermarket up/down pipe
    Borla cat-back exhaust
    Tien lowering springs
    Short ram intake with K&N filter
    Tuned at MAP Performance making ~270 awhp

    HID headlight conversion
    EGT and boost gauges
    Tint all around

    Timing belt at 185k
    All driveline fluids with Amsoil at 185k
    Mobile 1 ever 3k miles
    KYB struts at 150k
    Brakes at 150k

    Brand new set of WRX floor mats

    You have listed that timing belt was done at 185k and driveline fluids but no where do you list how many miles are on the car.

    Good luck with the sale!

    Here are some more pics. If anyone has any specific area they want a picture of let me know. Looks like I'm actually the 4th owner.

    I've got a 2015 WRX on order so if this doesn't sell by the time that arrives I'll post a little comparison of the first USDM WRX vs latest.

    Well, I'll throw my hat in here on the ridiculous. I'll trade a rifle, two shotguns, four wheels with tires (rimz) and one 1997 Legacy GT Wagon white limited special 38th year anniversary edition with less than 230k miles. Way less. Includes brand new just installed MNsubaru swooshie sticker. White swooshie even. Maybe even anniversary sticker. Don't know. Has hood scoop! Sort of dusty?

    j/k bump.

    Well, I got stood up three times by CL people yesterday (twice by the same person…). I just took the ad down. I'm tired of idiots.

    If anyone sends me a referral, I will pay them $200 if the car sells.

    Well, I can honestly say I'm glad the car hasn't sold yet.

    On my way home tonight second gear started making a not so friendly noise about half a mile from my house. I'm not sure exactly what it is yet, but I would have felt pretty ****ty had someone bought it and within a few hundred miles something catastrophic happened. I'm going to get it checked out obviously and will report back, but new new owner may get to enjoy a freshly rebuilt (or swapped) transmission!

    If anyone wants the car as-is for $4,300, I would sell it so I don't have to spend my time getting everything tracked down and sorted out. While it is drivable right now, I probably wouldn't recommend it and risk getting stranded somewhere. Swapping out the trans including labor and parts looks to be about $1,500.

    Still sitting in my garage. With work being so busy I am finding it hard to take on this project. I would let everything go as is for:

    $3,800
    .

    Clean and clear title in hand. You bring a car trailer and cash and take it away.

    FYI, it does start and run fine, so you would be able to hear/see that.

    Car is still for sale, although there has been a fair amount of interest with the lowered price.

    If anyone doesn't want the spare wheels, I'll take another $200 off the price.

    Thanks again for letting me swing by to look at it and bug ya for a while Alex!

    For those interested, the Borla sounded great, already has painted sideskirts, interior is in good shape, and it has some pretty decent upgrades with the turbo and FMIC! The Rotas are also in good shape and i'd roll on the tires for at least another summer, if not two. :)

    It was nice meeting you Josh, thanks for stopping by. Good luck with your search for a pristine Alpine White shell for your swap!

    p.s. My 2011 was a Satin White Pearl and the 2015 on order is a Crystal White Pearl. So I support your decision…

    Sold.

    Max was able to drive it home 20 miles away. Hopefully it is just something small and with some time and a few parts he'll be totally up and running for a great deal!
