  1. I appreciate you guys humoring my question so much! I know in terms of pure objectivity, keeping the WRX is the more sound call but sometimes, we just want to be convinced to do a thing (or not do a thing!) All I know for sure right now is that it's a 2007 Spec B with 94kish (I was wrong in the OP don't crucify me) that appears to be stock. Bolts in the engine bay are semi-rusty looking, and if the Carfax is to be believed it spent some of its life up here in the Northeast, and a good portion of it in Georgia. I'm gonna see if I can get some more in-depth reporting from the dealership, but it's only like a 3 hour drive away, so I feasibly could just go kick tires and set up a test drive appointment...
  2. Hi, long time lurker, first time poster here. I have a 2015 WRX Limited in DGM, and I absolutely love the car. I drive 35 miles one way for work every day, and the fuel efficiency is fantastic, but I can't deny the main reason I bought it was its driving dynamics and handling. Turbo power is an addiction to me now, thanks to this car. I've given it a mild Stage 1 tune with the Accessport and MAPerformance's Stage 1 tune (which combined, cost me less than a brand new AP from Cobb!). What originally got me into Subaru however...was the Forester XT and the Legacy GT. I love sleepers, and I couldn't find one that I could afford that wouldn't also end up being a money pit in the short term. I do not however, like the amount of debt I currently have on it remaining; when I first bought it I was more likely to have a larger amount of disposable income, but my financial situation has changed a bit, and every so often I catch myself thinking about trading it in for something else fun. GTIs, Veloster N (Or the Elantra GT N-Line!), Civic Si...you know, all the cheap-ish, fun runabouts. I'm also looking at older WRX/STI hatches, and the premium on non-messed with ones seems to be in full effect even today. So...there's a dealership in the area nearby that's got a 2007 Spec B for sale. 95k~ miles, roughly $10k. I'm debating investigating this and trading in my WRX for it. I know that the Spec B is going to have the better transmission in the STI 6-speed versus mine, and boxer rumble that the FA20DIT doesn't have but...I am admittedly worried about jumping into an impending money pit. TL;DR: 2015 WRX owner tears his hair out thinking about chasing a Legacy Spec B in his area...but doesn't want to end up balls deep in debt.
