Huh? Headers and a cat and this car will most likely pass. Wouldn't be that complicated or expensive IMO, but the price might be a bit high for asking the buyer to smog it themselves. Does appear to be pretty clean.

Not saying that car isn't clean. But seems high for what you can get for a few grand more.

Your car is indeed lovely, but while it seems like it would be hard to find a coupe as nice as this one, it seems like it would be even harder to find one that was swapped, and swapped well - including being BAR'd and smogged and all that. Or are these easy to find and for that price these days?

I'll be honest and say that I would love to sell my WRX - but I can't even imagine what a pain in the *** that would be haha.. On so many levels.

I keep seeing '02/'03 WRXs advertised with "low miles" with like 120k or 130k miles. So what does that make my 2002 with 67k miles then??? Prices seem all over the place.

Reason for selling. I looking for a more family car. I was thinking of getting a cx5
I always get annoyed how people do not consider a 4 door hatchback a "family" car and immediately default to SUVs. Is it that they have too much (unnessary) stuff or non-existent space management skills or just need that 'Murican status?

Lol, likewise! I would assume it's the latter

I always get annoyed by comments like this, but, before kids, I said the same exact thing. We use a small 4 door hatchback as our family car, and we have gone quite a few places as a family in my 1991 Justy, so it's definitely possible. We did have a large V8 SUV for a short time, when my son was born, and it was more or less a life saver many times, to have the space, the large/tall doors, and the tinted windows.

My boss has 3 kids, all under 7. It would not be possible or legal for him to use that STi hatch as a family car. So there's a reason I guess? There are a million more, and it is perfectly logical that non of them have occurred to you. That being said, there are also a lot of people that want to drive around a big flashy car.

I completely agree. There are points where hatchbacks or wagons are no longer adequate. However, I still don't see why it is not a viable option for a single kid household (may be even 2). Yes, I don't have kids, but I have chauffeured my share of family/friends/volunteer ones to not be completely oblivious At the end of the day, people can drive whatever their please as long as their finances support it. Probably should have elaborated a little more from the start
