It's a 2005 9-2X Aero 5MT in Satin Gray with ~67K miles. The car has every option available except automatic transmission. I love the car, and planned on keeping it for another couple of years, but I got a new job where I work out of the house and simply don't drive the thing anymore. I don't need to sell the car, but I may for the right buyer.

CONDITION:

The car has never been in an accident. There are a few paint chips on the bumpers, a minor door ding on the driver's side rear wheel arch, and probably a few other very minor blemishes here and there, but it's in very good shape. When I say minor, I mean minor - I mention such details as I'm anal retentive about cars in general (I've had multiple classics and have a more discriminating eye than most). One of the wheels has bad curb rash while the others may have a tad - I'll check and send detailed pictures.

I've used German Castrol exclusively and run a used oil analysis after every other oil change. I've been anal about changing things like the cabin air filter, intake filter, belts, etc. I have many records (but probably not all) during my time as the owner and prior owners. The 60K maintenance was done without issue.

I'm nearly 34 and the prior owner was in his late 40s. The owner before that had a baby seat in the car. The car has been adult owned and driven for as far back as I can tell. This is part of the reason it's in as good a shape as it is. The car also hasn't seen a real winter in 4 years: it is exceptionally clean underneath.

I've done some modifications to the car which make it a blast to drive but still 100% streetable:

POWER:

Blouch TD04L 19T turbo (under 7K on a rebuilt turbo)
Deatschwerks 565cc injectors (under 7K on new injectors)
Walbro 255lph fuel pump (new 7K ago)
NGK Iridium plugs (one step colder) (changed when I had the turbo installed)
GrimmSpeed manifolds (PnPed & coated)
GrimmSpeed cross-pipe (PnPed & coated)
GrimmSpeed up-pipe (PnPed & coated)
GrimmSpeed EBCS
GrimmSpeed gaskets
SPT intake & heatshield
STi intercooler
STi splitter
Stylin Motors silicone intercooler hoses
Cobb catted downpipe (wrapped)
STi cat-back
Open Source tune by AWD Tuning

SUSPENSION:

Epic springs (alignment done right afterwards)
Epic rear sway bar

BRAKES:

Cyro-Stop rotos
Hawk HPS pads
Goodridge SS brake lines
ATE brake fluid

I did the suspension, brakes and turbo-back install work myself. The turbo and injector install and tuning was done professionally by AWD Tuning's man in Austin, TX.
