Hey, I own a 2000 2.5RS and I've owned a lot of cars and so far I like this one best. It is more than reliable, it's extremely safe and with a good set of tires, driving in rain is the same as a sunny day. Gas mileage is acceptable 25/30 as long as you don't get on the car. I've been modding it, cai, short shifter, strut bars, sway bars, clutch and light weight fly wheel, sti motor, pitch and tranny mounts, engine internals, headers, free flow cat, axle back STI muffler, synthetic fluids all around etc. and the car is more than quick, having no trouble with WRX's and the Suby still can be driven daily and remains reliable. Good choice.

 

thanks for the reply.
i found a local car dealer selling a 2000 subaru impreza 2.5 rs coupe for just under $9k. i checked kbb & the price w/ the options that were listed came out over $11k. so $9k seems like a reasonable price for it (plus the dealer lowered the price from $14k).
so im gonna see if i can either sell or trade my car in for it. im not looking for a track/road car but the awd sounds pretty fun. its a pretty nice looking car too. also looking for something that can split daily driver duties w/ another car.

 

Sounds like a good buy, you won't be sorry.
