    1998 Subaru Forester
    Miles: 241,000
    5 speed manual
    Price: $1,250**MnSubaru price**

    Contact: Eric / (952)738-2550

    I bought this car from a good friend for something that would get me around during winter. He's a mechanic, so this car was well taken care of and won't leave you stranded. Cosmetically, it's seen better days. There's rust, and body panels are dented. However, it does drive straight, the brakes are good, and there's no shaking or unusual noises, it's a solid car the for price.

    Pros:
    - It has Subaru AWD
    - Nearly new General Altimax Arctic's
    - Currently has WRX springs on it
    - Heat / heated front seats both work well
    - Aftermarket Alpine deck w/ Bluetooth
    - Timing belt/water pump done within the last 5,000 miles
    - Head gaskets were done by PO, not sure when
    - Alignment done within the last 2,000 miles
    - Tabs are good until Dec 2016

    Cons:
    - Exterior is in fairly rough shape
    - E-brake doesn't work
    - Airbag light is on
    - ABS doesn't work, which actually makes it stop better in slippery conditions (go figure)
    - Shifter is a little wobbly, probably the bushings. No problems going into gears whatsoever
    - Key fob locks intermittently

    Haha, yes it was once a Mercaru. I figured having an OEM grill would help the sale a little bit.

    Thank you! I'm thinking this is the best market to sell it to, at least a hell of a lot better than the nonstop tire kickers on CL.

    Welp i had a friend from kindergarten stop by and in the next day or 2 i will be a 2 subaru man. One black and one white. The addiction is real now i might save a hare more for the 04 and do it for a bit more power. Time for me to get a legacy wagon and have a trio. You all are bad influences now i have to quit vaping to support subaru habit. Lol. Im gonna have to throw a BBQ bonfire for yall this summer because you all are awsome. I got tons of grass parking it would be some jockeying but we could fit 30 and the rest at the park and ride lol.
