I found a 2013 BRZ Limited with 1790 miles (yes 1790) for $20,000 at a Chicago Subaru dealer - which is the budget I have available.
I feel like this is a good price and an opportunity to basically get a new car for 50% off. First question - is this price in line\fair for the car?
I've heard lots of horror stories about the 2013 cars. The car still has 18 months of power train warranty left. I asked the dealer to check that any recall fixes have been completed. I'm also scared enough I'm planning to pay for a 5 year 60K full warranty as well. Questions 2+ - is this a good plan? Am I nuts to buy a 2013? Any other suggestions?
Thanks for any feedback you can provide. I greatly appreciate it.

Not to throw a wrench into this but, my '15 FR-s was $24k out the door. You could get a truly brand new, 0 mileage / 0 age car with full warranty for not much more than they are asking. Seems very steep. Plus, why does it have that kind of mileage? Has it been a dealer demo car, did someone lease it and beat on it for a few days then give it back?
Keep in mind, you're also going to have to pay for the extended warranty because the original factory one is just about expired. You need to factor that into the overall cost.
