Best manual turbo 4 seaters that can be found with under 100k miles for $5k

They're hard to come by, especially in manual, because normies don't know 'bout the Forester STI.

2005+ Saab 9-5 2.3T make sure is has the b235R.

One could argue that buying any car other than a base hyundai accent is a waste of money because of the extra money spent. I understand the costs that correspond with these types of cars and will be able to make shit work. Also subarus and evos get way too much rice tax, im looking for more shit like that adults probably owned before.

yea one could argue some dumb shit
doesnt make it a good arguement

dont buy a turbo vehicle if you cant afford one

Saab 9-3 is probably more in OPs price range, and it shared a platform with GM and Opel so parts would be slightly cheaper.

A good turbo car under $5k is a tall order OP.

Did the 235R have sludge problems like the others?

Stop caring about mileage faggot. How it was maintained is more important just get a civic for 3k

How reliable is a Impreza WRX Turbo Wagon or an older Impreza 2.5RS Coupe ?

Really depends on the owner. A stock EJ engine has a relatively long lifespan. Avoid heavily modified WRXs like the plague, especially if they haven't been tuned by a professional.

If they haven't been modified is there a good chance its will be decent enough to be a daily driver for me?
