So my cousin has finally graduated college and decided he wants a subaru. I'm trying to find him the best deal. He needs and RS but he WANTS the turbo... So I guess a deal on either?:RockOn - not mine:

He's interested in the Impreza and the Legacy. Please help!

 

what's the budget?

a 2002 wrx wagon can be had for under 10k.

 

if your going to make a car payment, might as well get a new one. He should wait for the 08 to come out so they will have the 2000-3000 off from the 07's. That way he can get into a TR for around 21-22K depending on the package. that is my best idea.

With the APR around 4.9 and with taxes and everything he will be around 24-25K and a payment of just over 500 a month.

 

I believe you can score a TR for that now, and that is without the 08's out already...

 

TR = stupid IMO

you save what, 1-2g? thats nothing on your car payment and you get nicer ****. i got my lgt "new" with 900 miles on it for 7g off of list iirc.

 

if you plan on swapping interior and getting aftermarket radio i dont see whats so stupid about the tr. just my .02

 

why swap the interior when you can buy a car with one already in it?



silly russians

 

Interior is the same, except for the seats. The TR seats are just as comfortable for me, I don't really lean my head back all that much anyhow, and the active head rest in the case of a crash is nice, but not sure how effective really...

I prefer the standard AC, as the auto ones (in my limited experience) are not all that consistent. Its good enough for me just to have AC.

Stereo will most definitely be tossed for something aftermarket within the the first 200 miles of owning the car for me...


So, in conclusion, the TR isn't such a bad deal for some folks.

 

LGTs are nice and all, but I am talking WRXs...

just curious as to where you scored yours that cheap? I have considered a Legacy GT B spec. rather than another WRX...

 

if your talking WRXs dont mention legacys in your main post. i got mine at Maita.

 

if you like the sti interior more and really want to swap that in? or if you just plain dont care about your car's interior and are on a budget? or if you get a good deal on a tr thats so good that you dont mind the cheap interior?
all those are pretty good reasons imo.....

oh and ill just ignore that racist comment...i wont stoop to that level....
btw: im not russian, kthnx

 

exactly my point...

 

no one on this forum can take a ****in joke anymore

 

if you were joking i appologize for getting offended.......i just woke up when i read that and didnt have my coffee yet
oh well, bygones...

 

so you bought a "used" car. stupid IMO. and if you plan on modding the car anyways the TR is the way to go. that 2k can buy some good parts.
