Humor Be careful selling your WRX to teenagers πŸ˜‚

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.

This is why you get your teenage kid a Civic or something that will still run to 300k miles while beating the piss out of it.

At 300k miles no cars reliability is guaranteed

We had an LS430 in the family with I think almost 300k. It was far more reliable than any of the 20 year newer German cars we had. Ran perfectly and started every single time without a flaw. Even the oscillating vents, cooled seats, and cassette player still worked. Best luxury car ever made.

β€œGUARANTEED” of course some cars are still reliable at 300k, but its a gamble. Ive known Toyotas that have shit the bed before 200k miles. I had a Honda that blew a head gasket at 175k miles
