Subaru: Sales Success Through Motorsport
Fifteen years ago, chances are that no one in the UK would have heard of the Japanese car manufacturer, Subaru. Those that knew of of these far-eastern autos viewed them primarily as farming vehicles that farmering communities would use to ferry their crops and sheep dogs from A to B when the trusty Range Rover was to wide for the twisty country lanes, they were a less attractive option than van contract hire. Of course now the Subaru name is well know in Britain, and has even earned the affection moniker, 'Scooby', mainly for its iconic now Impreza model, a popular choice for customers looking into car leasing. What is intriguing is the way that Subaru gained popularity through a successful period in top level motorsport, and curiously, a computer game.
The young Scottish really driver Colin McRae won his first world championship in a Subaru in 1995, the plucky young scot was a man of little words that let his driving style do the talking, and what style he had! The legendary McRae's driving style could only be defined as mad, he danced his car over mud, sand, tarmac and snow with bravado and vigour, always rapid, sometimes to the point of endangering his life, only to continue as if nothing had happened.
As McRae became relatively famous, dragging the success of the World Rally Championship with him, the viedo games publisher Codemasters enlisted his help for a console rally game in which McRae and his iconic Impreza took the staring roles. The game was heralded amongst the press for its ultra-realistic handling and beautiful graphics and sold in it's hundreds of thousands. In a direct relation to the success of the video game, Subaru saw the buzz around the Impreza grow with sales of the devastatingly quick P1 version particularly impressive.
Throughout the 2000's the Subaru Impreza in its various guises became the boy racers ultimate dream. The 4WD beast became available to buy in metallic blue with gold rims, echoing the colour scheme of the famous rally car. Today Subaru faces stuff competition from the Mitsubishi Evo X which is widely thought of as the better car and sells well through contract hire firms. But through the World Rally Championship, Colin McRae himself and that hugely successful game, Subaru has been able to solidfiy a niche in the UK car market landscape with a big selection of models from small hatchbacks to SUVs. Subaru is living proof that a strong motorsport heritage can translate into healthy sales figures!
Should I sell a 2000 Accord and buy a Subaru Impreza WRX?
So I've been looking for a new car and thinking of selling my new car since graduating and a guy who works at a store next to me is selling his used 2007 Subaru impreza wrx. Has about about 20,000 miles on it and has a customized interior. He said the only problem was just the transmission, I forgot what exactly, but considering how these things are going for around 30,000, is this a good idea to buy? How much can the transmission take out of my wallet?

Are you kidding me ? have you ANY Idea how much does it take to fix that ? Why don't you take that car to a Reputed Mechanic of your own (Not his) and ask him how much it will cost to fix ? Is he willing to deduct that cost from the Sale price ? If not you decline.
Seriously, why on earth you want to sell a nice car like the accord for the Impreza ? Even if you do want to, make sure he does not Overprice you. Do your homework and find out Edmunds.com TMV price for that car.
