After living in a relitivly wealthy area where kids get BMWs, Vettes, and Mercedes to drive to high school, and never seeing a single WRX on the road, yet more than a dozen or so at Auto X .... my best bet would to say that that car has been served..

Pwned, Used WRX < Brand NEW civic Ex..

Like the previous poster said...you don't know the troubles that a used car can come with....my guess is though, owner probably humped the junk out of that vehicle

If the car is 2yrs old I'd bet its still under warranty.
Plus you can mechanically inspect it to make sure thats everything is sound.

Some people just need to sell cars double quick for fast cash for whatever they need it for (tuition, rent, alimony payments, crack, etc. etc.)

Heres my 5 cents... Once you start putiing money into a wrx you will start regretting having bought one...

My buddy owns one and it breaks down alot and parts cost alot of money for it.. I mean alot.... Exhasut problems etc etc..

Whatever I have an 05 Si(ex) Sedan I love my car man and I know its gonna last...

BTW in June im getting a 99or 00 SIR thats gonna be kool to mod
