I've bought 2 used sti's and was never really happy with either one. BUT...if you get a screamin' deal on it, I'd say it would be hard to pass up. Just make sure nothing serious is wrong with it. I've seen sti's go as low as $16k. Also, I would try to find one within a days drive, so if you get there and it's not what you expected you can leave and not be out a fistfull of cash for airfare. Or worse yet, have it shipped to you and find out you were lied to (had this happen to me from a suby dealer in texas) Good luck with the purchase. I think buying a used racecar is always going to be a crapshoot.
