Question Used car buying issues

Im just a 19 y/o who doesnt know a whole lot (but trying to learn) about cars, and looking for an outback at the moment, and I've been on this website for quite some time, and I am hoping some of you can help me out.

I've recetly found a 98 Oubtack on portland's craigslist.

http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/car/323071605.html

I carfaxed it, and it indeed has a wreck reported on it, which was repaired on 05/26/2003. Almost 4 years ago. From what I understand, wrecked/salvage/whatever are not always the best buys, however I have had a few friends talk about buying a car that doesnt have a clean title, but has been running fine for two years since then. What is your take on this kind of car? Its been running fine for 4 years since the accident (so I've been told), does that mean its good to go?

Of course before I bought this car I would take it to my personal subaru mechanic, and have him take a look, but before I started being serious about it, I thought some of you might have some input! thanks!
