Default New guy here, hoping for some guidance...

Hey everyone, I currently own a 2000 mustang GT and belong to (Mustang Forums - Enthusiast Forum for the Ford Mustang) and have the same user name there as I do here.

Do to living in the northeast (PA to be exact) I am looking to switch over sometime in the future to an 04/05 STi. Basically my ?'s are as follows:

-What is a good price on an 04?
-What is the single biggest thing I should look out for when buying one? (I did check out some of the threads on this where it gave a list of things but I was wondering what I should be most concerned with)
-What are the best mods to begin with?
-And finally anything else a new guy should know before buying one?

Thanks guys, I look forward to learning more about these great cars and hopefully owning one in the near future.

-Tyler

Look at the Used STi Buying guide (link in my signature).

Price depends on the shape the car is in. An unmodded, low mileage car will be closer to 20k than 15k. Use good judgment. Biggest issue: previous modification or abuse.

Worry about the mods once you have the car.
