okay, i just got back from first trip to subaru dealership to check out WRXs, and overall i was really impressed...didn't get to test drive, but i'm coming back next monday, so something to look forward to....my question is, how much do you guys think is a reasonable price for a used '02 sedan with pretty much all the options on it, and less than 30,000 miles. the one i saw had 19,000 miles, and pretty much all the optional stuff, except no spolier . They said retail was about 21,000, and set a sort of starting point for bargaining at about 20,700. So how much did you guys used WRXs for, and with how many miles? Thanks

 

I don't know where you are, but there is a used 2002 Silver w/ spoiler at my local dealership.. (fort wayne, indiana)

It has just over 20K miles, and they are asking 20K... I know the guys there, and can prolly get them down a bit... especially since i should be bringing my father in next week to order a New Forester XT.

 

i live in austin, tx, so there are at least a decently good amount of subarus flowing around here for sale, even used...i dunno, i guess i'm just a little stingy, but i was sorta hoping to get one for around 18,500. Actually i just called another dealership, and they had just sold one with ~40,000 miles on it for $17,400 out the door. Unfortunately for me these cars hold value pretty well generally.

 

in cali they're going for 20,000 or lower (similar cars in your description). are there any new 03's still left near you? they're going for 21,500 generally now. i hear in northern cali they're going for 20,500 or lower.

 

i just got a used 02 with ~21000 miles for 17500. but this was private party.

 

you're lucky they're hard to find here private party.

 

yeah, i"ve noticed mine getting better with mileage too (bought it last november, and now at 17,4xx)..

I'd trade my Blue for a Maroon..

I could use the wagon, but not ready to compromise just yet..

 

I'm disappointed with my '03 sedan, just got 3300 miles, barely past the fist oil change, actually thinking about selling. It groans going over speed bump and lately on turns, dealer can't figure and subaru is "working on it". pay off is 19700. Dropped 5k on down. anybody intererested

 

i felt the same way the first week or so I had mine... I was going to hold off and buy an RX-8, but decided to get the WRX.

Now there is no going back.

IF you are having issues like you mentioned, it is prolly just your car, Because mine doesn't do that..

When throwing the car into a hard corner at speeds over 40 i used to hear a noise, but that was my old aftermarket wheels rubbing due to an incorrect offset...
