The Backup Plan
“My husband was a ring bearer in his cousin’s wedding. He wasn’t the couple’s first choice, but when the original ring bearer dropped out at the last minute, they quickly had to find another kid around the same age. As you can tell he wasn’t thrilled about being the backup ring bearer.”

The Ultimate Soft-Sell
“He really didn’t want to sell his beloved Subaru.”
Full disclosure, I always promised my wife that when we were ‘with child’ I would part with my beloved 2003 Subaru WRX so we could buy some minivan/SUV monstrosity with a rear window big enough to put those infuriating family stickers on. So this ad is a good faith effort. For sale: the last vestige of my youth.
Mileage: 85,000 miles. Almost all city miles. I’m everything that is bad about a WRX owner, so rest-assured that most of those 85k miles were spent at full throttle, rapidly accelerating in and out of 7-11 parking lots.
Maintenance: the car has had a few issues over the years. Oil changes ever 4-5k miles or every 6 months. Exclusively worked on by establishments that employ a spinning sign guy out front. The car rattles a bit and pulls hard to the left, just like a real NASCAR!
Other issues: cup holders are small (Japanese engineers in 2003 had no idea how far we would come.) Water pump was purchased from an Indian burial ground, so the car is slightly haunted.
See attached pictures. I’ve had multiple people email me and ask me for a better picture of the car. My response: no, but I will send you more pictures of the dents.
If you want to come by and see the car, great. It has to be a time when my wife is home so she can see that I actually put the car up. Any attempts to negotiate will result in price increases.

Shell Shock
“This was in October, 1999. I thought it would be cute. My husband about killed me. I hired a professional photographer. We were in costume for over an hour. Husband drank beer to get through it. I can’t believe now that I did this. Also my daughter had just given herself a nice bang trim.”

Resistance Movement
“This is what happens when I try to capture a family picture! Nobody cooperates and my mother and my husband annoy each other! My mom just wanted a kiss from her favorite son-in-law and as usual he was very resistant!”
