    I have a silver, 1999 2.5 RS and am considering getting a WRX. It has 115k on the odmometer. I found out after purchasing it that it slipped it's timing belt at 59k and got a new short block under warranty at that point (can be confirmed if you know someone at mtka subaru). It is in good shape. Tuned it up when I bought it, new plugs, wires, fuel filter, air filter, oil change with mobil one. One rust spot on driver rear wheel well. Ok tires, nothing special, OEM rims. Runs good, shifts good. Interior in great shape, non-smoker. Only thing it will need in not too long is rear diff shaft bearings, they are kind of noisy under load. I have heard it is common to be a little noisy. My plan was to swap it with an LSD from an auto wrx. There is an alpine head unit with polk speakers all around.

    Just looking to see what it might be worth and if there are interested parties. Please no low balling. Thinking around $6k.

    Here is one pic. I can get more once the rain is over.

    I was hoping to win an auction for cheap, but no love. I will be keeping the car for now. Anyone ever seen this car before? Went for $9160 in state auction.
