I've been in the wrx game for going on 6 years. Been in dozens of different wrxes. Trust the people who know- those are terrible years if you're looking for a newer rex
I say 11+ because widebody went on everything at that point, but yes I generally agree - I'm aware of their quality issues for 11-12. So I guess 13+ would be best. And while the pre-widebody isn't all that different (read: any) - They just look so... tame in comparison. I'm all for sleepers and stuff, but Subaru knows how to do wide body, and it's damn gorgeous.

Also, for those saying Focus ST - Why? I'm not going to jump in and be all "FWD IS CRAP BOOO" about the car, because it's really quite a good car, BUT: The transmissions and turbo's on the 12-13 models had tons of issues, and Ford's had to post so, so many TSB's for the car. I'd avoid the whole Fiesta\Focus ST line until that's all resolved, or only go in for a brand new one with a full warranty.
