February 9, 200818 yr Hi, I'm new here and also new to subarus. Been looking at various years of WRXs and wondering if there are any preferably years; i.e. are there any years of WRXs that had problems or that I might want to avoid? For instance, i was once told that the 02 models had transmission problems. Thanks for any help!!!
February 9, 200818 yr Might want to give http://www.nasioc.com a good searching as that is the Impreza hotspot.
February 9, 200818 yr 03 and 04 are prefered for that body style 06 and 07 are the next body prefered 02 and 05 both have MINOR issues not really worth avoiding but if buying a wrx you should drive it and make shore it shifts right, and doesnt do anything funny
February 9, 200818 yr I'd say that folks that buy the WRX tend to drive it hard, possibly even abusively. Be aware that the engine/drivetrain likely will have been put under a lot of stress, and may not even have been broken in carefully (i.e., driven with a hot foot early on:rolleyes:). Be VERY selective in the WRX that you choose and do have it checked out METICULOUSLY by a technician that you trust, before buying.
