Price: $2300. Mileage : 130,xxx

I bought and modded this car with the intentions of it kicking maximum butt on the few days that it snowed and whenever I did the occasional RallyX. At the Team O'Neil winter safety school an instructor actually asked if I had any power mods because it felt much faster :lol:

Mods:
KYB AGX's
RS Springs
20mm rear sway bar
SS lines up front
Winterforce tires
RS Headlights
Clear corners/sidemarkers

Background:
I bought it with 108k miles from a local dealer. A carfax showed that there was only one woman owner that had it serviced at the same dealer the entire life of the car (Wakefield Subaru), where I later went to get the timing belt replaced. Most of the miles put on the car were from trips to Northern VT and back (I go average once a month).

Issues:
-The rust on the right rear is getting pretty bad.
-The front rotors are warped due to abusing them a bit too much getting off of the highway
-The car has a history of shutting of for 30-60 minutes, once every 2-5 months. It's annoying, but I've dealt with it for almost two years and haven't done a whole lot of troubleshooting.
-Few bumps and scrapes from Boston street parking. Bad ones pictured.
-Standard P0420 code comes every so often, but I hardly consider it an issue.

If you can work around those issues, this car is an absolute steal. On with the pics...
