Subaru prices on the rise ?
Is it me or are Subaru prices on the rise ?
I’m considering selling my blob wrx which is running 426bhp, I’ve got a price in my head but thought I’d have a look at what standardish blob wrx are going for and I was amazed seen a few 80k one for like 5500 now is that the price now a days ? As if it is may have to put my price up abit

Oh I know that only have to look at the pictures or the discriptons to figure that out but mine has been my pride and joy for 6 years no expense spared over that time a lot of money has gone into this car mind you you read that statement a lot on eBay haha

Prices go up and down. What tends to happen is private sellers list there Impreza's online and back street traders buy them and resell for grand or so more. So check your not comparing your prices to dealers.

He's only just updated photo's aswell, so was still using the original sellers pictures.
You can bet he's done nothing to it and just relisted.
Very poor that is.

Blob sti's gone through the roof and classics are strarting to go up as there able to import the 93-94 cars in the USA under the 25 year rule so prices in Japan are rising fast at the auctions now which in turn will effect good cars over here .

Been keeping an eye on pistonheads etc to gauge what kind of prices their going for. Yesterday there was 100 subaru sti's listed on pistonheads, i think there was maybe 5 blobeyes. Prices have gone up over the last 6 months, I think as you say the usdm has a lot to do with it.

Best comparison is with MK1 Escorts. Plentiful and cheap at one point, nobody cared .... and then there were hardly any left. A couple of years ago you could get a usable and presentable Impreza Turbo for £1,000-1500. Now it’s £3k minimum.

I’ve had my STI V6 coming 6 years, cost me about £3500 and every year or so I have a peek at prices and must say I’m amazed at how cheap Impreza are really.
I’d decided to keep hold of this one as every other car I’ve had is now worth a fortune (low mileage Clio V6, R32 GTR, Cossies etc) so Sod’s law they’ll always be cheap haha
Looking at how dead it is on here I’m amazed they haven’t picked up more value as they must be relatively rare nowadays but I still think they’re a comparative bargain compared to other old performance cars. Mind you I don’t think evos are particularly expensive either really.

There's 2 early imports going for reason prices. Think most of the time it's dealers trying push the prices up that does it. Seen so many sell privately for cheap then pop up few weeks later for double the price privately them just sit there for months.

James, longtime no speak buddy, how’s things? Car is looking cracking pal, I totally hear what you’re saying about Cossies etc, as you know I’ve had loads, wish I still had my 22B too, just has 12k mileson it, hey ho, I don’t do regrets.

Because your suggesting that the prices are flying up for imports. Some yes, STI models type r models are going up. WRX models aren't really going up that much at all. I can pick up a reasonable one for under 2k.
