This 2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS was purchased new at Donaldsons Subaru in Sayville, New York in February 2001 by the seller’s mother, who moved the car to North Carolina in 2005. She added approximately 29,250 miles before selling this unmodified first-generation example to her son on March 30, 2016. He has since driven the car about 3k miles, and service during that period included fresh transmission and differential fluids. A 2.5-liter flat-four sends power to all four wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission, and the car was originally equipped with dealer-installed black leather upholstery and a factory sunroof visor. Service records document maintenance from new, and this Impreza is now being offered with the original window sticker and purchase order, owner’s manuals, brochures, a clean Carfax, and a clean North Carolina title in the seller’s name.

Finished in Silverthorn Metallic (792), the car is reported to have been consistently garaged when not in use. There is no history of any accidents, though a few chips and door dings are present along with some small areas that have been touched up with factory paint.

The 2.5RS features an updated front bumper with fog lights that were borrowed from the Japanese market Impreza WRX STI, as well as hood vents, a hood scoop, and a rally-inspired rear spoiler. Stock 16″ alloys wear Goodyear Eagle RSA tires with a DOT code from 2010.

Inside, dealer-installed black leather upholstery is accented with red stitching, and floor mats with 2.5RS logos have preserved the carpets underneath. The original sunroof visor is not currently installed but is included, and it has left a faint mark on the roof’s finish.

This car came equipped with carbon fiber interior trim and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The power accessories, cruise control, and air conditioning system are reported to be working as they should, and the white-faced gauges functioning properly. 32,322 miles are shown on the odometer.

The 2.5-liter EJ251 flat-four engine is paired to a 4EAT four-speed automatic transmission and produced 165 hp when new. The all wheel drive system utilizes a viscous limited-slip differential. Records show mostly basic maintenance with several oil/filter changes, tire rotations, new tires, and a new battery. The transmission and differential fluids were changed on December 19, 2017.

Photographs of the undercarriage can be seen in the image gallery below.

Included is an accident-free Carfax that confirms New York and North Carolina ownership, and verifies mileage with 21 odometer readings from February 2001 to December 2017.

A complete service history file is said to include every record and receipt since purchase. The original window sticker, owner’s manuals, purchase order, 2001 Impreza brochure, 2001 Subaru Line-Up brochure, spare and jack, and two sets of keys with remotes also come with the car.
