A friend of mine (who works for a BMW dealership) recently ended up with an 2002 WRX wagon as a trade in, on a new 03 BMW M3. The WRX is in mint condition and has 15,800 miles on it. Purchased in March of 02, 1 owner. I had been shopping for a new 03 WRX until this popped up. What should I be looking out for, in relation to the used WRX? Should I take it to Subaru for them to look over. I guess my view on it, is that it is a sports car, and people buy them want to drive them fast. The person that traded it in also traded in a S2000, so I know he likes his sports cars. I am a little scared to buy a used turbo, as I dont know much about them. The used 02 is exactly what I was looking for in the 03 models that I have priced. I feel I can get it for $18,500 + taxes. Do you think the 03 models are going to come down, now that the 04's are almost in? Any suggestions or opinions would be great. Thanks for your help in advance.

Cant wait to get my WRX.
