Worth it??

Has it been taken care of? If yes then yes. Do they have paperwork to prove it?

Ask BostonGuru as he specializes in the OB.

Paperwork means nothing! Take the beast to a SUBARU wrench and pay to get it thoroughly assessed. Nothing a paperwork trail of frequent oil, brake and tire changes and lo and behold the tranny's dirty and the heads are leaking....

I know you're up north.. something you said the other day about that gen being rusty and trying to get into the 08-10ish? But 3500 is pretty good imo if everything checks out. Still seeing a lot of 03-05 foresters in my area between 4500-6500. Very rarely between 2-3k. And OB's have more room, yeah?

Leg gens are 00-04, 05-09, 10-14, 15+.

I can answer that in one word: NO! Keep looking.

Ten, try again. Don't respond if you aren't going to give some real perspective.

Without photos and a mechanical inspection the answer is "maybe".

80% probability the heads are a'weepin'.
