From us:

We freaking love this build. Can’t hide it. The Forrester body is arguably the best of this era for DD duties and having a full WRX Swap with JDM goodness and a sleeper look is just so cool. We Can’t believe you can buy this for $4k. We’d want to know who did all the work and definitely a full PPI before you buy. Make sure you look at the Carfax to make sure the Forrester has a clean title but if it is this car is worth the asking price in parts alone!
