OK, am I missing something? Those prices are way high for a used WRX. I spent a good deal of time on Cars.com, and Autotrader helping Sue find hers, and that just seams high. Sue's "new" 02 with 47K had an asking price of $15,999, and she paid less than that for it.

Hmm, strange. One of those looks like Scott@S-Squared's and the other looks like doublerx's. How odd?

And yeah, that is a bit high. I personally wouldn't pay that much for a used WRX.

Dealers generally have higher prices than private party sales.

Especially ones in the Automall. If a non-retarded person buys either of those, they'll pay ~$4500 less than asking price.

Good luck with that! My car is an 04 with similar miles and the best offer I could get from a dealer was 17k. Maybe private sale might get u closer.

I agree those prices seem a bit high. I didn't pay much more for my new 04, but I'm pretty good at talking those dealers down hehehe... anyone need help buying a car just ask, but the dealers might run when they see me coming.

How come all the cars on the lot have licence plates? I thought when you sold a car you had to keep the plates. Or is this a california thing?

I California the plates stay with the car, unless you want to keep them for another vehicle.

Obviously the two cars are mine and Scotts.

Let's put it this way: I bought my car brand new in March of '03 for $23,250. I never thought you could put 18,000 miles on a car and appreciate in value.

That of course is the dealer's prive. Kevin is correct, I'm sure you could get mine out the door for $19,000 or so.

Hey now ricey means no function only form. In tahoe, enyone with a wrx through one season has broken fog lights.

Now Scott's on the other hand, well just look at his new floor mats.

Have fun at Sema!

You can only keep personal plates, not serial issued ones.
