mark.crowson Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I bought an excellent 2006 Baja Sport from Kendall Subaru in Eugene in July 2015. I'm in Kansas now, but relocating to WA in Sep 2015. I hope to keep this car forever, so simple repairs and especially preventative maintenance stuff i can do myself will be my main interests.

scole665 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I love the color. I think it was only available on the 06, as I recall. Welcome and enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazomatic Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) Looks identical to mine! You have good taste! Do you know its maintenance history? How many miles on the clock? Edited August 15, 2015 by spazomatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowmastered87GL Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I think you could get that color in 05 too. I had the option for it, but went with the darker blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasta Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the forum! Lots of really smart and helpful people here. Most of my questions are answered by lurking in the search bar. I've owned 4 other makes of cars and the Soob is easiest to work on. Safe travels back to WA!

mark.crowson Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 Thanks, guys. The Baja had <59k when i bought it in Eugene a few weeks ago. The drive home was close to 2k. Came w great maint records -- already had timing belt and head gasket replaced. The interior is pristine. I paid top dollar, but it has to be one of the best Bajas on the road. The goal is to keep it that way. The color was available in '05. I'm sure because there is an '05 for sale at my local Subaru dealership here in Kansas City and its the same color... pretty weird coincidence.

waxgelman Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Looking at getting a Baja, any recommendations on year or model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.crowson Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 Waxgelman, I haven't had mine long, so others might provide more expertise. I went with the Sport model instead of Turbo because everyonevis in agreement it seems the turbos have oiling issues. I didn't care as much about year as about mileage. So far love my LO-mileage sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
