So I have a late 2005 wrx that sits in my garage and gets taken out for runs on the weekend, yet I have had to replace the rear shocks and now the paint work is starting to craze..

This is a 2005 car!

I sold my classic Porsche which had the original paint and shocks and was in a lot better condition.

I love the usability of the wrx but with the 2.5l version getting such a bad write up, i am not sure I would buy one again or in fact recommend a new one.

Am I wrong?

Love my 2005 wrx as I have the wagon it ticks all the boxes... But as they no longer produce the wagon and no longer producing StI's I am not sure what Subaru I would get if I were every to replace it.

The idea of buying a new toy then having to take the engine apart bec its not strong enought sounds like a nice idea... But surly that's a lot of cash that could be better spent?


( p.s I have not had it from new and the shocks did not bother me, just odd how a fairly new car can have such a major proble)
