I always had a soft spot for Subaru’s, and I now found a well maintained, bone stock 2002 WRX prodrive for a good price.

It’s very tempting. I only had my 2.0 Scirocco for 7 months now and I really like it. But that Subaru…

      But not as likely on a stock 2.0 right? Do they really all implode before 200k?

        The headgasket thing is largely a myth for turbo 2.0 EJs of that age. They had different headgasket design than the infamous 2.5s.

        This is what I have read in NASIOC forums and as the owner of a reliable 2002 WRX I tend to believe it.
