Why a history check matters on a Subaru WRX

WRX is the most-modified car on the AU market by aftermarket-spend. Verify the ECU hasn't been flashed (Cobb / EcuTek tunes void warranty and can mask overrev events the next owner inherits). Engine rebuilds are common at 80,000-120,000 km on tuned cars — ask for rebuild receipts and verify the engine number against PPSR records.

Common issues to verify on a used Subaru WRX

Model-specific reliability concerns based on owner reports and manufacturer service bulletins. Use these as a checklist when inspecting a WRX privately, and check the dealer service history for evidence each item has been addressed.
