Thanks for the replies, all. I'm taking notes!
Its not the actual sub frame which would need to be cut out but a bolt on rear cradle. If the car has been dealer maintained like he says then it should be okay (one would hope they would see that).
If its okay just wire brush it and use a good rustproofing on it if it doesn't have any.
No kidding! I have a pal with a lift, I might consider that. I don't get to see the car until I get it, this is a unique acquisition. Long story, doesn't matter. I'm getting this car. I thought about getting a car fax, but who knows if every transaction gets recorded? I tend to believe the dealer, he has no reason to lie to me on this.
Also wondering about headlights, the lenses, I hate them when they yellow. Also wonder if the OBD is 1 or 2. I have a scanner. In any case, you folks definitely jacked up my comfort factor on all this. I can tell yall a LOT about Hyundai but little about Subarus. There seems to be quite an enthusiast population out there, but for nuts and bolts, y'alls the balls. Thanks for the answers..
