I'm located in the Pacific Northwest and looking to sell my 2001 Subaru Outback Wagon base model. It has 145,000 miles and I am the second owner. Clean title and does not have any major issues. I have followed the Subaru maintenance schedule and fixed any issues that have come up sooner than later. The car runs great without any issues. The timing belt needs to be done at 150k miles and head gaskets have not been done. However, there have not been any evidence of any head gasket issues.
I have looked on Craigslist and I see some sold by a dealership around the $4,000 - $4,500 range. The KBB value for my car is $2,000. How much can I expect to get for my car? I feel that Subaru's are in high demand in the Pacific Northwest so I may be able to get more than the KBB value but I also have not done the HG's so I do not know where I stand.
I consider it a positive that the headgaskets have never been replaced. No worries about prior overheats, what brand headgasket was done, if the heads were resurfaced, who did the work, etc. I'd prefer original headgaskets with no extant signs of leakage.

For reference, I've bought like 50, sold a few dozen Subarus, and looked at thousands, the numbers given are not guesses. I know very close to what I'd get for it. ship it here and I'll get top dollar for that rust free beauty.
