Hum, hard choice
The Type R will probably be better value,
but your often unsure as to its history,
the new car comes with a warranty,
The type R is probably faster
You will loose more money on a new car
You get to drive a new car
The Type R as an import may have been driven through the last 4/5 winters with inadequate underbody protection against salt.
You get your choice of colours with a new car
The type R is probably quicker
I bought a brand new STi after my EVO V money pit, not sure if it was the right choice, its already had new front struts under warranty and now theirs somthing wrong at the back end. On the other hand, my credit card no longer carries a continual balance of £1000.

Really depends on your usage and needs
both are Top cars but chalk and cheese. Your average road miliage may be the deciding factor
Tony
