If carfax is clean and don't look all beat up, I would take to a shop like Fine line Imports and have them check out and do compression test. That's what I would do! Good luck, PM me I live in Petaluma!

My friends girl went out and bought a wrx limited wagon without consulting me.

It runs horribly rich, refuses too tune it thinking it's just a luxury. I give it 15k.



Get an sti, beast 6 speed, big brakes,hid's,super baller diffs................just to do big brakes you narrow the gap of the 2 cars cost quite a bit. Or get the wrx, spend enough on it you could have gotten an sti for cheaper, and still have less of a car.

STI ftw

if it's running rich it'll probably run forever. You'll just get crappy gas mileage.

The bigger problem with our cars is running lean. Mine is lean as hell.

Tell her to get a diagnostic... that's not a luxury. Just do it with a tuner.

Buy my wrx then buddy. PM me if your serious. I just got a hit and run on my front end driver side, but the only thing really damaged is the fender and light is cracked which is all getting fixed along with the whole front end getting repainted since my other fam member is doing it for free
