How about this? Lots of life left one would think...

https://vancouver.craigslist.org/van...912202005.html

2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5TS - leather interior/low mileage - $4000 (Kitsilano)

This has been a truly reliable car, with fun to drive manual transmission and some nice after market additions: leather interior, sun roof, and alarm system. It has had only two owners, no accidents and clocks in at just 111,000 kilometers. I'm sorry to see it go, but we are switching to electric. It has always been extremely low maintenance and is running well. Discerning buyers can review my service records.

Is that Nicks car? I agree, he built the car well. Going to take a specific buyer, but someone will get a really fun car.

Low KM c63 with pp. $27k for a 481hp car, but do run a VIN check for the head bolt issue on the older cars. Other than that it should be a very solid drivetrain

Same car, sold by a body shop so be careful of its history. Guess you shouldn't put your Instagram handle on the car you're trying to sell.

How do you know it's the same car? I'm legitimately asking how you can tell (not trying to argue that it might not be) I have a mild case of being a geezer and can't really tell how the social media connection through the Insta handle was made to that particular car?

That and I'm currently in the market for a sensible car (as in one with 4 seats). I've been looking for a 2012+ E550 coupe (the M278 engine puts out 400hp stock, 530hp with an ECU tune). I can point to the 4 seats and tell Mrs. Snowfarmer how grown up and responsible I am!. I'd also consider a C63 though.

Just a guess. The ad has the instagram acct name on it, go to their Instagram and you'll find a car that looks exactly the same. There is a youtube video of the car as well.

The account has like 20 posts, and has one C63 in white, same wheels, same model, same black lip spoiler. Chances are pretty good if you ask me.

Oh yes, I see what you were looking at, the @IP Auto Services sticker on the passenger side rear window...

Thank you

In Chrome web browser I spotted it by right-clicking on the passenger side pic and selecting "open image in new tab" then zoomed in on the image (by repeatedly saying "enhance" to my computer screen). When I increased the image in a new tab, I could read the IG handle on the passenger side rear window.

the aftermarket titanium exhaust tips match up too.
The rear ender photo and compare the photos on CL. Not many ppl put aftermarket exhaust on c63's because its already loud af. They usually just do cat deletes
