Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
I was first looking for a 05 WRX WRB at Capitol Subaru and found out that they sold it that morning. I was really bummed because I had my eye on that for a while and it had some nice performance upgrades to save me money. I was offered a 08 WRX PRM. Package for 23k out the door but we looked elsewhere. A day later on sunday we check out this 07' WRX TR and it was great but way overpriced for what it was worth. They were asking for at least 23k out the door. with 25k mi. on it so haha might as well get a new one. We offered about 17k out the door which I still thought was a very generous offer. But shockingly enough it got rejected but we were offered a 2008 WRX WRB Sedan for the same price brand new. Everytime I drive it I am glad I got it I find it to be a calm everyday car or even a beast on the dirt road.
