unfortunately the ones that do blow up are the ones that have been tinkered with usually or neglected.
These early 90's, late 80's cars are crazy reliable.

Now on a early 2000s legacy with the notorious ej25 engine and it's almost at 300k. Just the one fatal flaw being the head gasket. Get er done and it'll likely go forever.

STi V3 and up tend to blow up.
Besides the inevitable headgasket issues, the more mods on the motor, the more likely it'll blow.
pretty sure the stock EJ's run for a long time if they get regularly looked at and serviced in stock form.

i always wanted a subaru for a daily driver but people told me to stay away and stick to toyotas for reliability. Do WRX's make decent daily drivers if not modified or abused? do you need turbo timers to protect it?

Price drop on that CRX 4500 with repaired tach (new cluster?) or 3600 obo non working tach.
It was for sale months ago as well and the ad was removed.

I think my fav is the 2nd Gen forester, specifically 06-08, after facelift. But impossible to find haha
