1998 2.5rs for sale

[HiImBrian]

I guess I'll go ahead and create a for sale thread just to see what kinda interest there is.

I've got a 1998 Impreza 2.5rs for sale. The motor locked up on me a couple months back on my way to Devils Lake...So the motor is shot but the tranny is still good. I had the HG's and timing belt replaced when I first bought the car about a year ago and I'm guessing that the guy who did the work never machined the heads which eventually caused coolant to mix in with the oil and cause the motor to lock up. The motor is shot, but the timing belt looks brand new and could definitely be used on a diff motor. The overall interior is in great shape with brand new floor mats as well as a crappy set for winter.

160,xxx miles
5 speed tranny shifts great
wrx hubs/roters/calipers/control arms with new lifetime warranty brake pads
Exedy oem replacement clutch with under 3000 miles
Magnaflow exhaust
Hella fogs
Optional alarm/security system

Asking $2500 obo. I'm not really in much of a hurry to sell it at this point, but if anybody is interested or has any questions feel free to post up or pm me. I'm on here way too often, so I'll most likely respond pretty quickly. :)

Non turbo? Junk 2.5 engine? Add some quarter panel rust to the mix...

I was just wondering I don't know much about suby crap, but I know that is somewhat a sort after car and I know some people that might be interested, its just seems like a high price for a rusty car with a blown motor.

The 2.5rs never came turboed to begin with, so the fact that it's non turbo is what's expected when buying these cars. Otherwise, yes the motor is toast, and there is a little rust on the quarter panels.

You're right, it's not priced to sell in a week. I like to plan ahead when I buy/sell cars so I don't end up just giving cars away. Everything has a certain value to different people. For instance, some people may find it exciting to own an arcadia green impreza because there were only about 150ish or so that were ever brought into the country. Other people maybe like the fact that I've already taken care of a wrx brake conversion. Others might appreciate the cleanliness of the interior.

In the future the price may change, but probably not too drastically, and not in the next week either. It can't hurt to shoot somebody an offer.
