hi everyone, I am new to the forum and hoping to get some info. I keep going back and forth with getting a used outback. Right now I have a toyota matrix xrs, which is fun to drive but worthless in the winters. I want an outback, but I am a little nervous about getting something with high miles (the one I am looking at is a 2007 XT with about 86k miles). Ideally I want a manual and turbo, which don't come around too often but this one has been on the dealers website for a couple weeks that I keep coming back to. My biggest concerns are maintenance and repairs. Are they pretty easy to work on? With a turbo, am I getting into more costly and more frequent repairs, or are they just as reliable as the non-turbos? What kind of things will I need to think about repairing on an outback with a lot of miles? I would like to have whatever I get for several years, and my wife is also a little nervous about getting something with so many miles, especially when I can get a 2012 manual trans, base impreza for a couple thousand more. Doesn't have the unnecessary things I want, but will probably last a lot longer at the cost of not being very fun to drive. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
