Finally decided to repost this again since I have been in between whether or not I want to sell it or keep it. I'm entertaining trades, but don't want any more subarus.

PLEASE do not ask me to part out my car UNLESS you are ready to trade me all the parts I need to go back to stock. Which are as follows:

1. STi TMIC with hoses
2. Stock VF turbo with inlet
3. Stock recirculating valve
4. Stock STi Axle back exhaust
5. Stock side feed injectors 2005 STi

If I do go back to stock, which I doubt, my car will go back up for sale in mostly stock form and ALL my leftover parts will go up for sale.

The car is a 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STI in the color World Rally Blue with approximately 110k miles on the chassis and 4k miles on the brand new motor (and adding as this is my daily driver). The car has a CLEAN title and I am the second owner of the vehicle. When I purchased this vehicle it had 52k miles on it and this car has never been raced or tracked. I am an auto-enthusiast that loves to build and modify vehicles but I'm definitely lacking the skills and/or the desire to drive in a competitive/race environment.

THE GOOD

Car is a turnkey daily driver. It has no major mechanical issues and drives straight. It made 387 awhp @ EQ tuning (would have made more with a bigger turbo but I opted for a smaller turbo to maintain a solid midrange powerband instead of going all top end). The new motor in it started as 100% brand new with all brand new forged internals as well as a brand new timing component kit from Gates. The next owner of this vehicle won't have to do any major maintenance to this vehicle for a very long time. Passed smog this March 2013 and is good for another 2 years.

THE BAD

The car does have damage to the rear quarter panel. You have to see it in person and get up close or at the proper angle to see where the car was hit, but the damage is there. I didn't have the car repaired after the damage because I was in a tough financial spot and having the extra cash on hand from the insurance payout was more important to me than having my car look pretty again.

REASON FOR SELLING

I am an auto-enthusiast that loves to build and modify cars. Once I feel I have reached a point in which I am happy with my current build/project, I move on to something else. I'm ready to move on from this project and thats it. I bought this car because I was interested in building/working on a boxer style motor and I've done that so I want to try something new.

DISCLAIMER

I'm only looking for serious buyers with the necessary funds on hand. If you want to request more pictures of specific areas please feel free to contact me. If you want to schedule a time to come view the vehicle feel free to contact me as well. If you plan on coming to view the vehicle and take it for a test drive you will need to have proof of funds available to purchase the vehicle.


If you are unable to provide the funds please don't bother contacting me to inquire about the vehicle.

Asking $18,500 obo

I am entertaining trades of other vehicles of LESSER value than my car. I'm looking for cars that are at least year 2000+ and no more than 120k miles on the vehicle and is in RUNNING. If you have something for trade that you think might be worth while feel free to offer it up bc the worst thing I can say is no. Cars im looking for are E39 M5, E46 M3, Mazda FD3S RX7, IS300 but also open to non performance vehicles as well.

Once again thanks for viewing my ad and if you have any misc questions about the vehicle or requests for pictures feel free to contact me via email and I will answer all your questions as soon as I can. On to the modification list.
