I was in the same position as you back in 2011, new WRX, or older one and mod it.

And who knows what the previous owner did to the car before you got your hands on it if you get the 2006. Stuff breaks sometimes or doesn’t work out quite as expected. Even if you find a mod-friendly dealer (yes, some dealers will work with you to get things fixed if you have an issue), you still run a big risk as Subaru won’t accept every claim. If your desire is to modify the car regardless of what you buy then don’t get the new car - because you will void the warranty. You might be able to find one that has stuff already done you were planning on doing. If you can find a clean 2006 that hasn’t already been modded (good luck) then that might be a good way to go. If the answer is “no” then it really depends on what you want to do. If the answer is “yes” and you absolutely must have a reliable car, then without a doubt buy the new WRX and don’t modify it until the warranty runs out. Based on that answer, this could go different ways.

The very first thing you should ask yourself is whether this will be your daily driver or not. Is it more worth buying a used 2006 Subaru WRX (and build it up) or a brand new 2019 WRX? All I had to do was pull the HID lights (computer hates them) and get some rims and snow tires. Either way I (my wife) got a sweet car for much less than it was worth. More than likely it was repo and bought at auction.

I also have decided that there was no way someone bought a 30k$ plus car dropped at least ten grand on it and then traded it in after 18 months on a Subaru at such a low price that I got it for 18k. Now I understand why that car is so damn fun to drive. Other than the rims it had been lowered with performance suspension (hence bottoming it out), aftermarket bumper and headlight assemblies, new performance headers and exhaust, new engine mounts, retuned engine, short shifter and what he assumed was an aftermarket racing clutch (he could tell the clutch had been opened and assumed that’s why).

The tech at the dealership informed me that the car was extremely modified and done well. The car drove well and still does now a few years later but I took it to a VW dealership to get a small repair on something I broke (oil pan sensor from driving down a very rutted dirt road). From an initial glance I knew it had upgraded rims but that was all that really stuck out. They claimed it had been traded in on a new Subaru. I bought my wife a slightly used 2015 VW GTI for what was a very good price from a local Subaru dealership. Have you ever bought a car, to find it had a part fitted that has made the car significantly more valuable than you first thought? At least that's what I've gathered so far in my research into manifolds when I wanted to fabricate one but so far the Subaru engines have been the best example of this besides engine timing playing a factor as well. Now you'd imagine with the WRX having the turbo there to join all the exhaust pulses together it would sound even, however because the manifold at the start allows such an unevenness to begin with you get stuck with that noise until you change the manifold to conjoin the correctly opposed cylinders together to produce a smooth harmonic balance. You'll notice with the BRZ you get a nice even tone when it's revved even with an aftermarket exhaust versus a WRX which when the exhaust is changed it develops that choppy sound due to the pulses being unevenly pushing out.

It's mainly going to be on how the exhaust runners are made, a good example of this is the engines used in the Subaru BRZ/FRS/86 versus their older ej series predecessors which joined opposing banks first rather then bring the cylinders into a merge. What makes a flat-4 engine sound different from an inline-4, since they're both 4 cylinders and have two power-strokes per revolution?
