who cares about the AC issue or that its old? It's an awesome jdm wrx! Just get it inspected and make sure the motor is healthy and that it has all the correct papers to legally posses it here in the US

I'd get it...but I just sold my damn RS swap for a reason

Because you need DOT approval. Typically they need to conduct a crash test on that model. Looking at it more, yea this car shouldn't be on CA roads.
Plus smog. I wonder how he pulled the smog problem? Friend maybe?
