No, there are no real issues with the transmission. No, there's no magical low-mileage cheap used STi store either.

The price difference between a used '04 and a new '06 will be roughly $15000 out the door next spring dude.

is the 06 going up in price?
if not, why a $15,000 drop in 04 value?
these aren't fords...their resale value should stay up there.
hhmmm...?

Not quite. I have seen 04 STi's going for sub 20K already.

A friend in SoCal bought one for 22K that had 17,000 miles on it...
