I race it everyday... to daycare, work, and the grocery store. And yes it haz BOV.... TWO OF THEM!!!! Maybe just one. A stock one.
I should do lots of things. None of them include parting out this car. If it doesn't sell, I just keep on driving it.
Would you take the change and lint from my pocket? just kidding, I have seen and ridden in this car, super clean and well taken care of. plans for something new?
I drive it everyday. Haven't had too many people ask about the car (probably will advertise it somewhere other than here too if I decide to sell). So I'm just keeping it for now.

If you don't have one, I might have a spare. After about 2014 I got an 01 Forester to daily drive. I hated sitting in traffic with a stick shift. Sold that a couple years ago when I got my wife a 2019 Forester sport and took over the 2009 Forester. I'm thinking about going down to 1 car since I work from home. I'd like it to be a turbo Forester because I still need to haul things and like a turbo. After covid hit, this thing pretty much sat. Also, the radiator went out and I replaced with a RockAuto one. That radiator leaked right away. I put on maybe 200 miles in the last year due to both those reasons. I just replaced it with one from Subaru. Battery is new for the same reason.
Accurate maintenance history is worth at least another $10. I did wiper blades that year. Probably air freshener too...
Getting closer to selling the WRX and the old 09 Forester to get down to one newer car that can still haul the trailer. Tempted to get the new Wilderness Crosstrek for the wife and take her Forester Sport.
