This wagon has been my daily driver for the last couple of months. The turbo charged five-cylinder is very fast in sport mode and still gets about 20-26 mpg. It has a clean carfax and has been well maintained (see list below). It has heated front seats, power windows, power locks, AM/FM/CD/Cassette, cruise control, power moonroof, and the AC works! I also have the cross bars for the luggage rack and the luggage guard which hangs from the ceiling behind the back seat.
The following maintenance has already been done: alternator (2007), timing belt (2009), front & rear brakes (2010), cam seal (2011), engine mounts (2004), ignition wires (2010), intake manifold gasket (2011), mass air flow sensor (2010), oxygen sensors (2008), rack & pinion (2009), radiator (2010), spark plugs (2010), stabilizer link (2009), transmission flush (2010), wastegate hose (2011), water pump (2009), replace coolant line (2011), replace front hub bearing (2011), replace front CV axle (2011), oil change (2011).
If you look close enough, there are small scratches here and there on the body, it will eventually need rear shocks, the driver’s side door speaker sometimes doesn’t work, and the passenger door doesn’t unlock with the remote (reach across and open it from inside).
What is this zippy AWD wagon worth? KBB.com says it is worth $3,185 (fair), $3,885 (good), or $4,285 (excellent). There is no rust on the car and it performs well. So, let me know what you think. I will consider trades and/or cash. For a trade, I am most interested in Jaguars and SAABs from the 1990’s, but let me know what you have to offer. Your best bet is to send me an email with your contact information. Use me (at) andyrupert (dot) com.
