I voted for the WRX before reading about how it had been trashed. It sounds like the previous owner really neglected it and who knows what else isn't going to show up on the Carfax. A Crown Vic really is a good car, they last forever and still run hard, think about how badly cops abuse them and then they still run. My girl's dad bought one with 250,000 miles and it's his good car, it's the only car he'll take out of town. Plus, you can take it anywhere and carry anything, it's so big and comfy.
