are you looking at auto or manual? i test drive the 5 door auto before, quite under power... but is very stable... Depend on what you looking for... :)

frankly speaking i wouldn't want to buy pre-owned subaru (my personal opinion)... cause majority or shall i say most 2nd hand Subaru are modded then de-mod... so there might be warranty issues or fautly parts... Well no offense to any bro here but we subbies are notorious when come to "poisons" or modding!!! :p
To play safe, either buy a brand new car or purchase the pre-owned directly from M.I for peace of mind.
Again the above views meant to be personal views and valuation of pre-owed cars. So no offence. PEACE! :o

err... i'm lost by this sentence. what do you meant by "below 1.6"?
get auto if you don't mind the lack of power during moving off.
as for 55k if you meant the amount, it depends on how many yr(s) has the car been registered.
just a suggestion... if you really intend to get a pre-owed car, try to get 1 that has been registered for not than 3yrs. Most idea would be 1 to 2yrs.
here is a link for your reference on what to look out for when buying a used car... http://www.samarins.com/check/index.html

Hi Yanling, i just bought a 2nd hand Impreza which is a year old..
Depending on wat you want in a car. For starter, Fc is quite bad comparing to my old ride and yes, pick up a bit slow unless you switch to manual mode( then can drag a lil bit ).
But despite all that, i can't wait to get up early to drive my baby to work:icon91: Cornering and handling superb and feel very stable.
Like someone told me before " Once you ride a Subaru, you'll never want to change to other".
