Whats cheap about it? 25k new, 7.5k 8 years down the line, for 1.5k more your getting an MY05 car, if anything its on the wrong side of 7k.

Only thing I like about that is the BBS wheels. Looks very 'used'.

i dont think thats cheap either i seen plenty 2003 blob stis cheaper, i have a 2002 sti prodrive and it's worth nothing these days, its just the way of it.

what your car is worth and what it will sell for are two diffrent prices the latter is correct

Out of curiosity, what price would you expect it to be listed for?

Mind you it is a jdm, 7.5 is probably about right tbh, though I don't like the fact it's had the clutch changed, that should last alot longer on an unabused car.
