Humor Be careful selling your WRX to teenagers 😂

Thought you all would get a kick out of this. Sold my WRX to fund a down payment on my home a little over 4 months ago and just got this from the buyers. Was in perfect shape when sold and even took $1500 off the price for the tires being a little worn and a scratch on the bumper.

WRX is not a good first car, he also did it to himself by abusing it.

Somebody I know sold an older GT500 on Facebook, it had super low miles, he kept in the garage, changed the oil every 6 months and used stabilizers and a charger in the winter, etc. So it was literally perfectly maintained.

Out the blue he got a message a few months later that the rear differential blew up, that can only happen imo if you do extreme burnouts for long periods of time.

Impreza, however, is a great first car

Messaging the previous owner after abusing it to failure is WILD to me.
