Full Story:
$11,000 obo for a relatively stock 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STI for sale at 168,800 Miles. Clean Title and No Liens. Owned for 6 years. I’ve put on 80k miles since my ownership. Never had any serious problem. This car has been well cared for hence the high miles. Every recommended maintenance has been made. The body is in okay condition. Some rust here and there with one small dent in fender. It was a daily driver, 365 days and not stored in winter.

I like to think myself as an active member of the MNSubaru Community and used all the resources available. To give back, I will not hide any information or be the shady seller we all despise. The engine runs healthy and idles consistently at 500 rpm. The car does not smoke from the oil filler cap when opened so I don’t believe there are any ringland issues. Engine does not knock or make any unusual sounds. I am not hesitant to do a compression or leak down test.

As you can tell, I’ve been slowly restoring the car to its original glory in hopes that the next owner will enjoy it as much as I did. My main reason to sell is to make space and allowance for a family SUV. Feel free to entertain me with any 7+ Passenger SUV of equal value. No mini-vans please.

Forgot phone today so will post pictures when I get home. For the meantime, here's an old thread with pics: http://mnsubaru.com/threads/02-07-roof-rack-500-and-lightbar-100.44290/#post-726356
Car hasn't changed much minus the rack. You can see the fender dent in the first picture right above the wheel well.

 

Hi, is the STI still for sale?

 

Sorry to all PM. Haven't been the most motivated seller. Have been reluctant to sell due to recent problems. Smoking turbo and low boost. Replaced fuel pump and filter with new subaru filter and walbro 255. New camshaft position sensor. Cleaned PCV and deleted purge valve. Car now has 172k miles. $10k or best offer wanted!

 

FYI: Passenger side foglight fell off. Car has rust in usual subaru spots. Not so bad though.

 

Still interested if the price is right, did you replace the turbo yet or selling as is? Have you done a compression test?

 

no sorry. i still havent replaced the turbo and done a compression test. will likely get to it this weekend.

 

was also told the cat is clogged with oil deposit from. dont know this for sure as i have not looked into it.

 

sold for $9500
