From what I hear, the swap is a nightmare any way you cut it - but the wrx is a little nicer than the RS. Plus, I want to keep it stock as long as possible, and do the swap only when shit starts to break.
I’m looking at the low teens, not mid to high. If I had $19k, then I would buy a beat STi. And just because GM was giving a discount, that doesn’t mean that they are going for less than book value. Don’t get me wrong, I would love a Saabaru, but I am looking at the $12-14k range.
