So after a couple of bad leads, I have found a 2010 impreza outback sport and a 2010 impreza hatch premium with 98k miles on it each going for 9500. I'm gonna give it a lookover with a mechanic friend and i hope it goes well.

now could be i've been going about it all wrong- but wouldnt it be beneficial to avoid getting a post 100k mile car for someone who doesnt know much about them or- the maintenance costs involved with a car of that type? I know i'd have to look at the carfax/autocheck to see if anything bad happened but i look at like an average of like 80-100 listings a day.

Yes in retrospect that post could have been put together better- but hopefully its enough to start some sort of dialogue on a newbie subaru owner. I just started getting into subarus and cars in general- this will be my first vehicle. If there was some things I value most would be for instance how people felt about their cars in terms of maintenance costs? A more "long game' question would be could I sell the car if it wasn't for me like 3 years down the road even if i get like an older 06-07 model. Most of the people i am around are jeep enthusiasts but its not really the type of car that i'm into. As far as the car goes- it looks like with a 10k hard ceiling my options might be limited. low miles and expecting anything past an 07 is miraculous. I wanted to get an impreza hatch or a legacy to share between myself and the gf for work and other purposes.

HI everyone- Just joined the forums, I have been looking around for buying a subaru for the past month got to drive a legacy 06, 09 an 09 impreza and a 09 outback. and have been really pleased overall so i'm probably going to get one! but i have zero experience with them. so in part this is meet and greet and part what would some current/previous owners recommend sort of thing. I'll hear anyone out but heres what i have for information so far- if this is not the place to post i will retract or otherwise. I really dont have anyone to talk about this type of material. I am looking pretty much everywhere for a subaru legacy or impreza between the years that i have happened to actually try out- so 06 - 09 on the subaru legacy or the subaru impreza (hatchback). Although getting a wrx would be awesome its more pipedream atm i am willing to put 10k right now towards the car any more isn't gonna work. Any input from the sages is appreciated.
