Hello all -
I'm looking at a 2007 impreza 2.5 non turbo special edition with 109k. It's an automatic and while I'd prefer the 5 speed, this will ultimately be a daily driven in-town car with some occasional county driving on dirt roads. The car itself is very clean in and out and looks like it was well cared for. I believe it's a third gen impreza because it's not as boxy. Anyone have experience/s and opinions on these cars? I know the suby crowd know the motor. My gut says I really like the car and the feel of it but I need an opinion before jumping on it. The dude put the sti badge on the grill for cool points, Don't ask me why. Attached image(s)
