Smart, Simple Subie: $5,500 2006 Impreza Wagon Looks Like a Practical Pick

A clean 2006 Subaru Impreza wagon with about 92k miles is listed for $5,500 in Massachusetts. The one-owner car has been dealer-maintained, with head gaskets addressed, a new catalytic converter, brakes replaced, and tires under 10k miles. It’s a basic AWD manual with solid cosmetics for its age. The article calls it a sensible, low-cost option — just be sure to check the undercarriage for salt exposure and compare with higher-end editions before deciding.
