we have one. i dont feel like i am riding high. at all. it is actually just like a regular sedan, looking out the windshield.
I just (this week) sold a 2004 Subaru Forester X 2.5 AWD that we built a new motor for (remachined crank/rods, new pistons, rebuilt heads, new bearings, new head bolts, new timing belt, water pump, hyd tensioner, idlers/rollers, etc), four new tires, new battery, and new front brakes/rotors.

It had 159K miles and I sold it for $4800

With under 100K miles, you'd be looking at a 1999-2001, and likely not with all the wear-item "clocks reset".

I buy a lot of these broken: Escape/Tributes with blown transmissions (some engines), Honda CRVs with blown transmissions, Toyota RAV4s with blown engines, Forester/Legacy-Outbacks with blown head gaskets or engines. The repairs are expensive, so I can buy them cheap. They sell like popcorn here in the snow belt.
