Arrow 06/07 STi - what to look for...

I will begin my search for an 06-07 STi within the next couple of weeks...

I'm looking for an STi that hasn't been modified, or lightly modified. As far as color goes, I'll be happy with what ever I can get

So - My questions..
1. What mileage range should I be looking for? I want to mod the STi but nothing more than maybe 350+/- whp.

2. How much should I be expecting to pay for the said car above? 06? 07?

3. Any bugs specific to the 06/07 that I should look out for? (Ive read the forums but with so much info its hard to catch it all)

Thanks for any help

Nick

If you're going to mod it heavily, you just want the engine and drive train in good condition. You're going to void the warranty anyway, so just go for the lowest mileage you can find. Pay more attention to service history than mileage (within reason, of course).

Depends way too much on the region to say anything intelligent here. Use national searches. Generally speaking, the farther south the car, the less it will be selling for.
