I'm about to purchase a 2003 Forester 2.5 X from ibyautohouse.com. (Apparently I can't post the url directly.) I took it for a test drive and it seems to run fine. Price is $7995. A friend of mine suggested I post here to see if there's anything I should be aware of if I buy this car.
Only thing I've noticed so far is the latch on the trunk is a bit sticky (you have to push the handle back into position before you can close it), and there's some noise coming from the wheels/bearings that the seller claims is from the breaks being rusty due to having not been drivin in a while. It has a 30 day warrantee, so in theory if there's really something wrong it would be fixed at dealer expense.
Anything that I should be aware of? Stuff to look for?
Thanks!
