First off the GX is a none turbo so don't expect a very high performance model.

they are very reliable and 113k is no issue if its been well looked after, keep looking after them and you'll see 150-250k before needing to have a the engine rebuilt.

running costs are very similar to a car of similar spec so a 2.0 impreze will be similar to a mondeo/vectra etc, the running costs only become higher than most cars when you get to the turbo versions

personaly i wouldn't have a none turbo version, but realy depends on your budget to buy, insurance costs and running costs
