If you are buying this car because you are rich and have a track membership, then cool. But if you are buying it as a daily driver or even a weekend car, I don't recommend it.
First of all, you cannot see shit out of the back half of the car. The windows in the rear are even smaller in the 6th gen I was just at the dealership yesterday. You will have a miserable time backing out or merging across the median into traffic as you can't see shit behind you. I actually got into a car wreck like this in a parking lot because there is zero visibility until you're half way out of the parking spot and some jackass came flying through the parking lot going 30mph.
Second, the car is stupid cramped. Getting into the backseat to grab anything is a pain in the ass. If you drop something between the seats your hand cannot fit. It's also impossible to clean under there unless you remove the seats that are secured with red loctite. Maneuvering around inside this car is a real bitch. Great for tracks, not so great if you need to grab groceries or a backpack or an item inside your car.
Third, this car is a straight line car. If you are looking for something fun to zip in and out of traffic with, this car is not it. That's why I say it's a good track driver but if you are using it to run errands it's not very fun because it handles like a boat. It also has god awful grip in the rain.
Lastly there is nothing overly aesthetic about this car. It looks cool but it's really just a cheap America muscle and after 7th gen comes out your car will look like cheap junk.
Lastly, Ford dealerships do not give a fuck about helping you with fixing your car. Anytime you have a warranty claim they will say it's wear and tear or outright deny there is an issue.
Overall I really don't recommend for a daily driver. Get something that's zippy with good interior room and good visibility.
>Inb4 triggered Ford shills
yeah fuck ford
>>16421773
idk was thinking of buying a cheap 2005 specifically for a daily, gonna get dinged up anyway but its got a frame...way more durable than any modern car suspension.
You're saying "Mustang" as if there hasn't been 6 generations of them over 50 years with each generation having a shit-ton of updates and trim packages.
Care to be a little bit more specific? It seems weird that you would write that much and not mention what you actually have.
Subaru is the pinnacle of utility and style. Prove me wrong.

It begins.

>>16421583
That one has been for sale for a long time. A normal R34 will be cheaper when they're actually legal for import (but still way overpriced I'm sure).
Buy an R32, they're $25k off the boat.

That Silvia for sale is mine, John. Don't you dare.
Looking to buy my first car for under 4k and I found this: https://bakersfield.craigslist.org/cto/5901409859.html.
What do you guys think? Would you recommend something better or do you think this is a good price the car it is.

Hello there /o/
I'm looking to buy a, new to me, Subaru. I've narrowed it down to 2. The first is an 08 Impreza WRX STI, it has 56k and some odd miles to it. They are asking 26,669 but before I left I had him down to 24k. Blue like the one pictured.
The next car I'm looking at is a 11 Impreza WRX Limited with 65k and a pinch. They are asking for 20,978 For it and i haven't talked numbers with them yet. Black.
I'm going through my bank which had a pretty stellar loan rate, I'll be taking my loan out to 84 months at 2.99%, I don't want to pay any lower than 20k and no more than 25k, so both cars are within my range. They both seemed in excellent condition but i haven't taken as close of an inspection like adviced in the sticky. I don't think either of them have had any after the market modifications but again I didn't inspect that close.
The reason I've taken such interest in these cars is because they are manual and they are Subarus so I know they are reliable and hold their value... plus they are fast.
Help me out here /o/!
Is the sti really worth it for 4k more at an older year? Does whatever stock upgrade make the car worth it?
>>16421494
that is to much. you could buy a brand new wrx for 25k
are you actually planning on making a 600hp monster? you could also get a brand new STI for like 33k.
What are your plans for the car OP?
>>16421494
I would get the sti
Why?
>6 speed
>adjustable differential
>bigger turbo
>more horsepower
The wrx will be a 5 speed and just a detailed version of the sti I have driven both cars of those years and obviously I favor the sti better.
Unfortunately for both cars they both have timing belts. So that's something to think about later on.
Check for the head gasket meme and any other leaks.
Wrx of these years are prone to steering rack leak/failure
So check those boots.
>>16421494
>I'll be taking my loan out to 84 months at 2.99%
>84 months
You can't afford either of those cars if you have to finance them for 84 months.

As far as winter driving, what's more important drive type or tires? Would a fwd with true winter tires be better than awd with all terrain? Generally speaking
No, FWD is still FWD. Sure it would give the car better grip, but FWD = FWD.
>>16421329
Tires are the most important. Awd or fwd just makes it easier to get moving, but you'll still ram sideways into a tree when you turn and skid three blocks when you brake unless you buy good winter tires.

Sup guys. Going with a friend tomorrow up to SF (from LA) because he's picking up one of these bad boys & needs me to drive his new manuel nipbox home.
>Anything I need to know about these?
>how should I adjust my driving style (my ep3 is ff) for rwd?
>>16421181
Why doesn't he drive it home himself?
>>16421181
you should adjust it so you down wreck your friends new toy before he learns how to drive it.
I say hit it the twists at like 50% of how you normally do and slowly work you way up on the drive home.
>>16421181
I dont really have anything to add but good on you and your bud.
I drove from San Bernadino to Irvine in my buddies S2000 because he was way too fucking drunk.
