my STi had a middle built in booster seat. It pretty convenient when i had my little cousins in the car. Plus he was happy when i hit boost and he would say "Vroooooooom!"
Get an 08 STi...those things had loads of backseat space. Plus you get lots of trunk apace for all kinds of stuff. I LOVED mine, but it's no longer with us.
Just cause a dealership inspects it doesn't mean it's certified to have a rebuilt title right? I'd think the bureau would need to do the inspection to get it back on the road.
you will never know if it didnt go through insurance. So yeah, your resale is screwed. i bought a truck with one from texas and it was nothing but a headache.
