I could not justify ever buying a new car unless I was drowning in cash and even then would only buy new if I HAD to have the latest model with very specific options that I would be unable to buy used.

AHHHHH But SOMEBODY has to buy new for there to be used ones now don't they!
Personally I would be very, VERY cautious of buying one of these cars used with more then a couple of thousand miles in it. Even then I would look extremely close at the service history (if not owned by one of the "I don't trust anybody so do all my own work" crowd) and would examine every possible prior mod location for signs of change.
How many times do we see on this forum alone "had enough of this piece of crap and am pulling all my mods (which sometimes were the cause of the problem in the first place) and trading for the newer shinier (insert car here, usually a 15 WRX lately though)?
Even pure stock ones can get pretty beat up and still look fine.
Not to say there are not good deals on used just need to be wary.
