What do you guys think? My 01 has the mods as listed with 74K miles. The wrx is white with an exhaust and 84K miles. Just trying to get some feedback. Thanks

 

straight across?

 

Not sure its a private sale for $13000 locally. So im not too sure.

 

Well... your tranny warranty goes bye-bye in 26K miles, but that could mean another 2 years depending on how much you drive.

With that said, I think WRX's are (much) uglier than a CL-S, not to mention you're gonna be really dissapointed by 3rd and 4th gear performance.

These cars have high drivetrain losses due to the AWD. 1st gear feels fast, 2nd gear feels good and then 3rd gear feels... well it doesn't actully feel like anything.

It's just my opinion, but I would hate owning a WRX, even an STi. I don't care if the STi has 300hp, in 3rd and 4th gear, it's still slow!

 

STi is slow in 3rd and 4th gear?

 

Not compared to most cars on the road, but in contrast to how VIOLENT their acceleration is in 1st and 2nd...

 

Ive never really like the WRX but here lately ive really really liked them..Ive also had a little trouble with the law lately and i think that it would put my parents at ease with the less horse power. Although it is turbo'd it would be dad and my little secret

 

are we sure he is talking about an STi?

 

02 = bugeye =

 

I wouldnt trade it for a sube......

 

keep it

 

wrx insurance rates are much higher than those of the cls, i say if you could afford it, go for it.

 

Straight up? I'd do it.

 

I wouldnt trade it if was just a WRX maby if it was the STI though.

 

Make sure it isn't beat up, and especially since you're buying a Subaru in its first model year with over 80k miles on it it had to be raced or something of that sort. I'm going to say don't do it and look for something a little better. Hell, throw in a couple of thousand and get something with lower miles on it. You still have time with your warranty on the CL-S, don't worry.

 

I love the bug eyes; I would say do it because of the impending doom when your car hits 100,000 miles; I heard the transmissions on the Rex's weren't all that they're cracked up to be either...

If me though I don't think I would; I like the class/sportiness mixture that the CL offers; something that the WRX does not offer (but does return tenfold in fun factor)

Final verdict: On the fence; but would do it to avoid impending transmission jouklhaups

 

WRX is a very good practical car. Fun in the sun, great in the snow and safe in the rain. It'll be a good choice

 

Actually, if you are going to do a WRX, the earlier models are better-looking (IMHO) than the new ones. Just imagine... they are now sharing the same face-mask *shudder* more or less with the Tribeca!

 

Hell No! Definitely not the bug eyed wrxs. If anything get the wrx 04+ exterior.

 

You gonna sell the neuspeeds if you do?

 

Hells no!
