Marketplace Link. I'm selling this for a friend who moved across the country, it's in remarkably good shape. GRM trades considered, especially if you've got a blown up BRZ or something cool.

That thing is just a baby! I've got 225,000 miles on my 07 5 speed Legacy wagon.

If anyone wants a tune for this thing let me know and I can send it over. Brought back the power "under the curve" when I upgraded from an 04 Legacy. Won't make it fast but definitely helps.

Have your FB listing inquiries been brisk?  I suspect they have been.  

Im not trying to up the price on a potential GRM-buyer but I feel like you have the car priced $2k under the typical FB market.  My initial reaction is to ask $7k and settle for $6k.  

Of course, I don't know full details like the age of tires or if there is rust, but from the ad description and photos the car presents well.

I predict the car to be sold via FB before the end of the weekend.  And, that may just be your goal.

The used market seems to be dropping and I didn't want to overprice it and have it sit all winter- I'm hoping this is the sweet spot, although I did originally want to list it at $6k.

To answer the implied questions, there's no rust, but if I were keeping it I'd put a fresh set of snow tires on it instead of the bargain all seasons it has now.

But isn't this traditionally a tough time of year to sell? Lots of people tight on money due to Christmas spending along with the end of year layoffs that seem to always occur.  My experiences trying to sell between Thanksgiving and March have always been slow unless it was a bargain for less than $1k.

I suppose but...  someone out there "has to" buy a car because theirs took a deer strike this time of year.  Or, some dad hopes to be a Christmas hero and buy their teen a car.  

If it is a low demand time it can also mean there is few genuinely good cars to choose from.  I still predict a quick sale.

If you guys would like to place bets I can document the sale time down to the minute for you cheeky

I'll predict it is bought by the first person who comes to test drive it.  

Do you have any appointments yet?

Sent it to my dad, he needs a run-around car and always liked these.  Will let you know what he says.
