Recently as in may?
I would say if he wants a quick and easy sale 9-10k or if he wants to have it hanging around till at least after Christmas then put it up for more.
Bear in mind the blue 2006 sti spec c type ra won't sell at 17k and there is a 2005 spec c. That has been for sale for ever at 13k.
And my 1st post was a joke hence the lol on the end, so your sassy quote wasn't needed.

I would love one of these but in some respects i agree with Peter. A good prodrive bug can be had for less than 8K so are these cars really worth 4k or there abouts more? Thats a lot of cash to spend on mods. I know these are rare and i understand that makes them more desired ( just look at the 22b prices )

I think the same as a quite a few members on here that it is a future 'classic' and was built with one purpose to be the best Impreza that they could build at the time.
Don't forget they were the equivalent on £46K when new and imported into the UK.

The MY05 spec c is a great car ,but even with the type 25 conversion I don't think it has the same appeal as the S202 factory special. It would be a tough choice as the MY05 might offer the better performance especially with the type 25 pack ,but i just love factory specials and the exclusivity.
The car in question has been up for a while now it was originally up for 14k i think a few months back. For that sort of money the buyer is faced with quite a few optionssuch as a UK hawkeye or even a high mileage Jap STI and I think this is one of the reasons it has not sold.

Fair point, a 2005 could have been an early hawkeye as you say and at 13k that would be a bargain, i offered the guy 12k for it a while back and he laughed at it, there you go, just to add i'm not a trader i was just looking for a spec c, i also bid 16k for the blue spec c ra but he said he had a trade in at 17.5k, but thats now for sale at 17.5k privately?
maybe the trader changed his mind, who knows.
in the end i left a load of dough in the bank and bought this as a cheap toy.

Nice!
Just got rid of my 997 turbo cab fully loaded. I am looking for a good deal on a GEN 2 997 turbo or a LP560-4. If I can't get one at a decent price then I might for for a coupe 997 turbo manual and do some naughty stuff to it.
