Sold. Please lock the thread. Thank you


Up for sale is a clear title, 1 owner 2013 World Rally Blue Subaru BRZ Limited 6 speed with less than 5000 miles. The car was purchased on 3/2013 from John Kennedy Subaru. This car has never been driven in the winter, tracked, auto crossed, drifted, launched, or otherwise abused. The car has never carried an animal, been smoked or had food eaten in. The car is in excellent condition inside and out.

The car is currently financed with Beneficial Bank so the final transaction must take place at one of their branches. I can easily make payments on the car and continue to do so because I am trying to reach an 850 credit score.

Please do not offer any trades. I am not interested.

All of the parts were bought new from authorized dealers with the exception of the Racerx kit, which was purchased new from a private seller.

Inspections to be done at a neutral site. Car is located outside the King of Prussia area in Pennsylvania.

Installation work done by:

• Epic Tuning Allentown, PA. Supercharger kit (and everything associated with it) and suspension install. These good folks build AWD Civics and twin Turbo S2000's and have been featured in Honda Tuning, Super Street Magazine and other publications.
• World Wide Stereo Montgomeryville, PA. Stereo install and subwoofer box fabrication

Engine/Drivetrain:

• Jackson Racing CARB tuned supercharger (version 1 intake pipe) . Installed at 3200 miles
• Jackson Racing Oil Cooler kit

• Motul 300 Transmission and Differential fluid.

Suspension:

• Racerx full suspension kit with spherical bearings. Rear lower control arms anodized red. Front lower control arms are the chromoly steel variety. Please note that the stock rear trailing arms are currently installed because one of the bearings on the Racerx trailing arm (driver side) was making a click noise, probably because it was faulty.
• If you are looking for a more compliant, street friendly ride, urethane bushing replacements cost $70 for the rear lower control arms and $140 for the front lower control arms direct from Racerx. The rear upper control arm bearings are not interchangeable with urethane bushings.
• The suspension kit had dust boots on them but they all deteriorated somehow. The car was only driven in fair weather above 50° F. The car has not been driven hard at any point in its life. Nor I or Racerx knows why this happened. Because Racerx is awesome, they sent me a set of new boots and trailing arm bearings on their dime.

• Whiteline sub-frame bushings
• Original factory suspension components will be included should the buyer want to revert to stock later on. The factory suspension components have Whiteline bushings installed as well.

FAQ's

• Why are you selling the car?

I am bored of the car and it's not worth making full car payments for something I drive 2000 miles a year. I'm just cutting my losses.

• Are there any mechanical issues with the car?

No. Everything on the car operates as it should. There is a loose wire in the rear that is swinging around and bumping into metal but that will be found and addressed before the car is sold.

• Has the car undergone any warranty work?

Yes, the rear view mirror fell off and the mount was replaced under warranty. The mirror was not damaged when it fell off.

• Will you part out anything?

No.

• Is your price negotiable?

No. If you feel you can find a better deal elsewhere, by all means, please do so.

• Can I test drive the car?

Only if you have cash in hand or proof you have the funds to show you are a serious buyer. I already get a lot of requests to drive the car from people who are curious about the supercharger.

• Do you have the original N/A components?

I believe I still have most of the original N/A parts, but I cannot guarantee that I do.

• Will you take trades?

No, I have absolutely no interest in trades.

• Will you ship the car?

No. This deal will be done in person at a Beneficial Bank branch. My sincere apologies to anyone this inconveniences.

• Why did you buy bottom of the line ST coilovers when you have an upgraded suspension kit/spherical bearings?

They were placeholders until I got something better.

• Do the spherical bearings make a lot of noise?

There is some increased NVH with spherical bearings and that is to be expected. There is nothing you can do to avoid it. It never bothered me personally and with the stereo on at normal volume, you would be hard pressed to tell the difference. If you are expecting a silky smooth and dead quiet ride, you are really looking at the wrong car.

• Do you have the factory head unit?

No, it was sold long ago.

• Why did you get the CARB tune when you are emissions exempt in PA for driving less than 5000 miles per year?

Two reasons. First, I don't feel the need to extract more power from the kit than it already has. The tune is proven to be rock solid and the kit is fine for my needs. Second, I did not want to have a 5000 miles per year restriction on this car.

Racerx sent me another set of dust boots and trailing arm bearings for no charge after explaining what happened to original ones. That's beyond great customer service.

I know you already sold your car but did you have any issues with your transmission. I hear they are like glass and with a recent purchase of basically same supercharger kit (kraftwerks) did you have any issues. I'm almost waiting to put the KW kit on because of the transmission issue that could arrise
