Thoroughly inspect for rust on the body, subframe, and brake lines, especially if the car spent time in harsh climates.
If considering a 2.5L EJ25D engine, inquire about head gasket replacement history. If not done, factor in potential repair costs.
Check the condition of the suspension components for excessive play or leaks, as these are common wear items.
Test the AWD system on a slippery surface if possible to ensure proper engagement and function.
Look for comprehensive service records, especially for timing belt replacement (critical on these interference engines).
Be prepared for potentially higher fuel consumption compared to modern FWD vehicles.
Consider a pre-purchase inspection by a Subaru specialist to identify any hidden issues.
