    I came back to the MNSubaru community because I know how enthusiasts treat their cars. After a two year break from subarus I want back in. I am looking for a WRX wagon to suit my daily driving needs. Here's the scoop......

    I want to spend around 10k. Less is better, but more can be done for a clean car.

    Any year will do.

    Required:
    1) Wagon, required for the dog and the occasional canoe.
    2) Manual transmission. I do not like slushboxes, I will not drive one daily.
    3) No rust and a decent body
    4) Clean title. I do not want a rebuilt roach

    Preferred:
    1) 100k or less miles. I can deal with higher mileage if the car was pampered.
    2) Black, White, SR Red, Silver, Blue, Sed Red in that order(which ones did I miss?). Of course this is extremely flexible.
    3) Stock is good! Light mods are a bonus. I can deal with suspension/wheels/int/exh/intercooler, even turbo and injectors with a light tune. What I don't want is a car that needs race gas/ethanol, new wideband 02s every month, and constant tinkering. I already have a car that fits all those requirements.
    4) I just want a car that was taken care of.

    Let me know what you can dig up! Thanks.

    Great looking car with the sedan front end. Hail/bumper damage concern me. I would have to see it I guess.

    Let's keep looking.

    Hail damage is minor. Barely noticeable. I lusted over this car, even having my 07. Go take a look at it, seriously. I work with a guy that does amazing PDR that would make it look new for a very very reasonable price.

    my car has some hail damage on the roof, and unless you are looking for the damage you don't notice it. But again mines a 95 so i could care less about it. but its still worth a look since in the pictures i didn't notice anything (unless they were taken before the damage)

    I sent a PM to possibly check out the car. I am still not sure that it's the car for me. I am going to keep looking while I wait to hear back.

    Matt's car is not going to work out. I was going to look at it but something came up on his end.

    The search will continue..........
