at that price range you'd be hard pressed to find a 07

most likely 05, lucky if you get 06

rest...well do your search...

Unless if you live in Texas. I found my 05 for $6500 and one locally recently sold for $7500 I think.

We were over the 100,000 mark though.

Only real difference from the 05-06 to the 07 that I remember reading (I have been looking for a while for a second car) was that the 07 has folding rest seats and the 05-06 doesn't.n
I just like that BL body style with those head/tail lights and grille

Thanks guys.
Just started looking, mostly 05's at any price is what im finding. A few fairly local around 10-12k
A clean looking white 05 130k mi. For $9k ...500 miles a way

Also, my laptop got killed in the wreck so im doing all this on my phone. So sorry for
Spelling and stuff. Haha

Also, when you're looking at one, check the oil. Sometimes that can be a telling sign regarding how well the car has been maintained. If it's low or black, walk away.

Buy my wagon. 05 5EAT with 70xxx miles. Well maintained with records, stage 2 with cobb downpipe and sti up pipe, transmission cooler / thermostat, custom e-tune from Cryo.

I'm only half serious about selling it and you'd have to fly to VA and drive back or have it shipped, but if I had a buyer I would consider selling it off to go on the hunt for a 5MT wagon.
