--->How many miles does your Suby Have?***
Nope and it's still in good condition. Actually Ed & the guys up at EQ Tuning were fairly shocked by my car as to just how good of condition it is actually in when I took it up to get tuned.

awesome to see so many high mileage wrx's out there. So much for the bad rep on reliability.
Mine is an 04 with almost 187,000 on it. Original motor and tranny. I bought it with 10 miles on it.

Bottom line for me is that these cars are meant to be driven, not turned into time capsules. In that spirit, I wonder too - why does your almost-5-year-old car only have ~800 miles/year on it?
It's a long story that I probably won't share here. However, my 95k mile motor is in fantastic shape and still has great compression/leakdown numbers so it was a no brainer for me. It got the full cadre of 105k maintenance items done on it before installation at 94,xxx miles and it goes like an SOB. I am 100% confident in it.

I agree with buzz 100%, my 05 I got with 8 miles, took it to 45k before my friend ended its life via a tree. My current car only has such low miles because I kept loosing my job and needing a tune, etc. So it just sat. I can say with my 05 part of the time i was commuting 100 miles a day, and I still enjoyed driving an sti everyday so much more than letting one sit. I'm going to drive my car as much as possible now that I just got it ready again.
