Default Possibly FS: 2005 WRB/Gold STi in West Michigan

16,200 miles... subaru extended warranty, bone stock minus tinted windows and never otherwise modified, i'm 2nd owner and carfax is 100% clean with no paint work, no dings/dents... just purchased a week ago, but the 08 vette I was looking for became available tonight.



$24,000 not going to find a nicer example for this price, so no lowball offers, thanks.

Just to be clear, this is an 04 or 05? The thread title says one thing and your user profile says another.

Picky mod - the trim around the rear wheel tells the whole story!

I don't deal much with those ancient cars. And you, of course, did not answer my question.

More creative than I was expecting...

Here's a picture of my '04 STi. Compare the mine vs. his (hint: THERE'S A PIECE OF TRIM ABOVE THE REAR WHEEL THAT MIND DOESN'T HAVE!).


(If your ancient eyes can't make it out, click for a larger pic... )

You could add this detail to your STi buying guide, if you want it more complete...

This is an 05, I owned a 04 I sold about a year ago... I was going to buy that 06 from your friend boondock, but she wanted way too much and ended up trading it in (wouldn't even fix the bumper at that price!), so I got this one out of farmington last week from the original owner

Anyways, regarding the 05's, front diff is helical instead of suretrac in the 04s, wheels are 8" wide rather than 7.5", trim flare above the rear wheel wells, updated interior, stronger front hubs, different badging on the front doors, headlamps have black interior housings rather than chrome, rear sti badge has a black background vs. chrome.... many significant and not significant differences between 04 and 05

I am aware of the mechnical differences between the years. I can't tell them apart from the side. I was confused by the profile info and the post info.

I am very interested in your STi. I will be in the market for an '05 STi by the end of the week (Spring Break). Has this car every been raced, tracked, abused? Do you know the previous owner or how the car was driven? Any additional info would be great. Thx
