Edge_sar Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 So I'm definitely getting either a lgt or a wrx. But anyways, I brought the price down to 9,800. Is this worth it? https://anchorage.craigslist.org/cto/5169838318.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blcnghtsky Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I'll chime in before others, as with any vehicle (especially one with 100k+ miles on it) what the service records are like? how does it drive? Can you take it to a trusted mechanic or dealership and have them give it a once over? It sounds like a decent deal, slightly higher than average miles... But there are a lot of questions we have that you should have too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if that's a decent price of it is in excellent condition. It's well maintained I went to see it the other day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOYURLAZY Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Good deal if car was maintained with no leaks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatSlowLegacy Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 All subaru's are good cars but the legacy is more professional than the wrx but with that being said the wrx is more sporty than the legacy it all depends on what you want sport or class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want the attention of a wrx or the sleeper LGT. I like being ignored at red lights and by cops, but still be able to take on just about any car in a sprint to 60ish.

Kylar Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Buying any turbo Subaru with over 80k miles(sometimes even less) is a crap shoot. Make sure you have a cusion of at least $5k in the bank to rebuild the engine when it spins a bearing, turbo fails and takes out the motor, or breaks a ringland....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Certainly do a compression and leak down test before buying the car to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEE-OTTO Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yeah that sad part about the EJ255 Subarus is you are buying into the unknown. You may get a solid car no problems outside routine maintenance or you get a grenade with the pin pulled. $9800 aint bad for that year and mileage but you may want to buy a warranty to go along with it or have it checked out by a knowledgeable mechanic.
