Default Hey Aaron... Ima need some stickers...

...of the wagon mafia variety.











2009 Outback 2.5XT Limited. New daily driver... a little bit more practical than the old SVX was. Not to mention, it's 15 years and more than 200,000 miles newer. Turbo 5MT. And it's still under warranty... which is a weird feeling.

Anyone want to buy an SVX that's in fantastic shape? I don't really have the room to park 4 Subarus and a truck at my house.

Yeah, but this ones in great shape, with the newer body revision and a vf46 turbo. I do wonder how long that '05 will sit on their lot. It's not a bad car if you can get it under $12k and are willing to do some work. I ended up paying quite a bit more for the '09, but i stilll got a pretty good price... Plus there's no tax on a private party purchase, so that saved me a bunch right there.

Mike's right though, I've already got a list of parts to put on it. But it's nothing crazy... I just want some very streetable coilovers and sways, and a downpipe and reflash. Those BC coilovers come in custom rates and extended outback length, so I think I'll do that unless someone has a better suggestion. I want to run around oem sti spring rates and lower the car to around LGT height, with the ability to go back up to stock height for the winter. And hopefully I can get to 300 ftlbs at the wheels on the stock turbo/injectors. Though I do have some 675 top feeds already that would be great on the car with a fuel pump and vf52 turbo if i can't get what I want out of the vf46. But I'd rather touch as little as possible.
