Min just reached the 60 mile mark and everything is going good.
Anyone reached 200 miles yet? What issues have you faced and at what points.
Hey folks, my friend's car was stolen yesterday from the downtown Fred Meyer's parking garage around 3:30-4:15pm. Unfortunately, the Portland police have been less than helpful so I'm looking to social media to help my friend during this rough time. Here are the details: Body color: Silver License plate: XMM988 Case number: 22-9768 I've also included a link to a photo of the car. Thanks for your time and please reach out if you see it. https://imgur.com/a/u6bZnxh > > Edit! Thanks to you fine people, my friend's car was found!!! It's not in perfect condition, but the car was reportedly found a few blocks from the place it was stolen. Thank you so much to whomever reached out! You really helped us out more than you know and we're so very very thankful for the information that led us to find it! You're a saint!!!
It has 93k miles on it and is $4000 USD but it has ugly raptor liner paint all over. Is this a good deal?

Found a clean condition wrx automatic with 156k miles what do you guys think worth buying ?
Background
I am moving for a residency and will require a vehicle during a short stay.
Also, apologies in advance if I'm using the incorrect terminology anywhere. I'm not a car enthusiast and it'll likely show at points. Please flag so I can learn going forward.
(Also apologies about whether or not any of these numbers sound out of reality. I'm also a "first time leaser".)
Uses for Vehicle
- "Point A to point B" driving in a small city (<100k) for 1-2 people. Not necessarily for commuting (public transit should get me to work and back effectively...plus, the distance is close to walkable), but weekends, grocery runs, light travel, and a decent amount of night driving if given late shifts. Expect about ~10,000 km (~5,000 miles)/yr with no major roadways that get to highway speeds (the major streets are 60 km/hr with some 70-80 mph sections around the outskirts)
- Driving to a large city. My residency will spend 4 or 5 of the 24 months in a larger city (~45 minute drive), so there will be small stints on highways to get there. Additional drives to the city may occur if I choose to take weekend trips out
- Moving small furniture (e.g. disassembled chairs/tables)
Budget
- Hard limit: $800 Canadian [630 USD]/month for lease. Soft "Do I really need to?" limit at $750 [590]/month.
- No limit for residual for the price of these vehicles
Preferences
In order from most to least important:
- All-wheel drive. I will be living in an area with relatively frequent wet snow and rain.
- A lower lease rate as it would be questionable if I keep buy it at the end.
- Cargo space for the aforementioned disassembled furniture.
- Reliability. I've detailed my experience with my first vehicle below. While 2 years isn't much time to see real issue come out, I wouldn't mind having to not think about wear and tear too much in case I buy at the end.
- Fuel efficiency. I doubt a difference in 2-3 mpg in-city will be felt in my wallet given the distances I drive and the duration of the lease, but it's another "nice to have" in case I buy.
- Additional utility or tech beyond the above is not necessary but nice to have. Top priority on this would be mostly effective heating options (on top of the frequent snow, cold winters will be the expectation...and my parking spot is fully exposed).
- High residual. Greater flexibility after 2 years seems like my favourite option right now as I have no clue where I'm ending up after this.
