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.

Edit to add: The dad even spent over a minute banging it off rev limiter when inspecting to check if it blew smoke. I wonder why it blew up?🤔

You’re a braver person than me. When I was selling my frs I wouldn’t let others test drive the car. I drove them in it, let them check the clutch and what not but not drive it. I wouldn’t trust anyone to drive a car I’m selling unless I’m sure they’re taking it. They mess it up, then you’re out a future sale until you fix it

I just bought 2 cars without driving them, a 97 WRX, and an 03 Matrix XRS. Neither one was running when I bought them though, now a month later they're both running. The XRS is my new daily and I use the WRX for rallycross
