One owner — purchased brand new (not used or demo).
Full disclosure — She has an ongoing oil consumption issue, but it’s been tracked and documented with Subaru since new.
Oil Consumption Details:
Subaru’s official spec says burning more than 1L per 6,000 km is considered excessive oil consumption.
Smokey’s oil consumption was first noted at 6368 km, Subaru eventually started the consumption test, and the short block was replaced at 84848 km burning oil at the rate of 1.3L / 6,000 km.
Since the short block replacement documented oil changes and top-ups have continued:
• At 87928 km → Burned 1.36L / 6,000 km
• At 89746 km → Burned 2.31L / 6,000 km
• At 91456 km → Burned .7 L / 6,000 km

PLAN A has always been to have this fixed under SUBARU WARRANTY.
Despite years of careful monitoring and following Subaru’s procedures, the warranty claim has recently been denied by a Subaru Canada saying there's nothing more they can do.
Don’t let the oil consumption discourage you — should buff right out. Other than that and a developing squeaky wheel, she shows her age surprisingly well.
