Car description

I've got a 1985 Subaru GL for sale that would be the perfect Christmas gift for a Subaru enthusiast or someone who just loves quirky cars! Seriously, this car constantly turns heads. People regularly take pictures of it and I've even been pulled over by the police just so they could take a look at it!


You're probably wondering to yourself, "How the heck does this car only have 72,000 miles on it?" I'll tell ya! This Subaru was originally owned by an old man in Salt Lake City, Utah who used it to putter around town. The man eventually traded it in and my dad picked it up with only 25,000 miles and used it for the next 10 years as his weekly commuter car to/from the airport.


After my dad retired, the car sat in the garage collecting dust for a couple years until I decided to write him a check and drive it out to my new home in Chicago.


I've been using this car as my daily driver for almost two years and it runs perfectly fine! It has its quirks, but what can you expect from a 32 year old car?


Here are the specifics:

1985 Subaru GL

Just under 72,000 miles

2 door hatchback

Front-wheel drive

4 cylinder, 1.8 L

5 speed manual transmission

Clean title

A/C (needs a recharge)

AM/FM radio

Rad 80s styling


Let me know if you have any interest in the car! It's been a hoot to drive around everyday, but I've realized that owning two cars in Chicago just doesn't make any sense. I'd love to see it go to a good home!
