Default New 06 2.5 anbody got one?

Thinking of getting another Scooby on an 06 2.5wrx and am a little bit undecided as to whether they are any good..fuel..resale.etc.I am drawn towards the 15k imports that seem to be everywhere and would appreciate a bit of feedback as to the pro's and cons of the import as well.

No problems with EU imports as long as you get one from reputable supplier e.g. Alliance you just need locking wheel nuts and cat 1 alarm fitted. Plenty of posts on here.

Had mine for 3 months now and loving every minute of it, got mine from Motorpoint, service/price was very good and i even got a great part exchange price. Insurance was exactly the same as a uk model. I would go for a import every time

Yes but every situation is different, obviously a civic type r is a more sought after car or i got a newbie sales person because i got just under the book price for mine , it just wasnt worth trying to sell it privately.
