Wife just bought a year old Crosstrek, it has high miles but only was driven for 13 months, and had 4 or 5 scheduled maintenance visits in that time.
She got a good price, it had sat on various lots for several months because it has ONE THING that would scare away all of the "active life style marathon runners, off road cyclists, canoeists, wanna be weekend warrior campers, patchouli wearing hacky sack specialists donning the knit cap over the dreads"...
It has a 5 speed
So, 30k miles in 13 months, we got a good price and a platinum type extended warranty for 5 more years, I figure that's about the time that something finally breaks on this thing.
I did remind her that she bought a flat 4, AWD, wagon, manual Subaru and it *isn't* a WRX.
