I am scheduled to finalize a deal on a used 2017 GT350 that was traded into to Subaru of Macon, GA. I'm hoping to see if I can track down the prior owner (or owners...hard to tell) or history on the car but so far the VIN and serial has not yielded any results in my web searching.

It seems the car was originally sold in Bessemer, AL by Town and Country Ford and at some point relocated to GA.

According to the dealer, the owner reluctantly traded it in on an STi due to an incoming baby.

Anyone know this car/story by chance?

Took quite a bit of sleuthing and chance but I found both of the original owners. Got the history from the most recent one and ended up buying the car.

The word "BOTH" surprised me as this is a 2017. Hope all works out well for you but two owners would have me concerned.

If the price is right the car is worth it. A great experience playing in the power band of the Voodoo; especially on the track.

As it turns out, the first guy traded it in on a new Raptor within 3k miles. I'm guessing he got lucky on the allocation and decided to go for it. Second guy says they had a baby surprise and needed a 4 door as a result. Who really knows but I got it on a lift and it hadn't seen a track. Everything looked and felt fine. The price was low enough and the trade was right otherwise 2 owners already would've bothered me.

Was the dealer not willing to contact them on your behalf and give them your number or get permission to give their number to you? I'm pretty sure that's a common thing.

I asked actually but they straight up ignored that question among some others. :doh:

I've been contacted by the dealership before with questions on behalf of a buyer from my previous car. I didn't think it was a big deal.

I would totally be OK with this myself. When I sell or trade I am completely transparent, so I would welcome it.

Actually, yes. I posted on the GT350 Facebook group and someone was kind enough to send me the report (without me asking or even being aware of such a thing) along with some other internal system screenshots. It had the recall done and no other warranty work was needed.
