With that mileage I'd be wanting at least a FSH with receipts for proof of oil changes etc done at correct intervals.

Also know what your looking for in terms of common problems and check it over fully before parting with any cash.

Mines is a 2003 with 92K and drives like new.

Mostly depends on where car been serviced,if you can go with your car to subaru specialist for AFR test,Compression check and Det test for peace of mind.

I bought mine with 88k miles and we're started modding our WRX.
