I'm a proud second owner of a 1998 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS. I was wondering what was the value of it. It was sitting for 2 years because the battery died and the lady that owned it had another car. I bought it changed the battery, put in new gas, put in engine treatment in the motor, drove it for 200 miles before I changed the oil. Now I just tuned it up and changed the brakes and rotors... The thing drives great!!! 124k miles, even better she changed the timing belt and water pump at 112k, I just found the service receipt. I paid $1000, so I know I practically stole it, but I want to know what it is worth before I give it to my boy as his first car... The paint is faded, so I come to my second question... A good friend of mine is giving me the hook up and is gonna do a professional paint job on it for $1500. Is it worth it???

Your probably looking at a car with a value of roughley $2800-$3000, after the paint you'd have paid for and put into it the value of the car but you will also have raised the value as well, It'll be a good first car for your son, I had a Subaru for my first car and drove it for 6 years before buying an 02 VW GTI and now that It's snowing I really miss my Subaru.

depends on your location but up here in the NW those things go for 5-7k easy especially since its a 2 owner low mile(at least for the year) my 05 rs has almost 120k...
