I'm sure it's a lovely car but IMO the market for a modified WRX is relatively limited so I would not expect to get much (if any) more for it than a nice clean standard car. Any reason for the aftermarket headers? Just curious as it was my understanding there's only significant benefit post 400bhp. Pictures might help someone more informed than me suggest a value

Look for whatever the price for a stock version is, then accept that every pound you put into it adds absolutely nothing to that number....

depends on what someone is willing to pay to be honest. ive seen modified wrx,s lately with similar specs up for 4k which is getting into sti money but if its a nice clean example with a spec list as long as your arm and well kept and cared for then someone might pay to get it.

4k is into STI money ? lol ,, where are these cars ? your hard pushed to find one for 7k these days and then there way over 100k miles , any clean ones are only going up in value now due to there age

sold a similar spec WRX a couple of months back for £3.5k but that was to a friend or it would of been advertised for £4k if thats any help

Just added some photos to give you a bit more of an idea. I was also told it had an engine rebuild in 2012 after the bottom end went but I've got no proof of that

3.5-4k for a blob wrx of that age and mileage. blob Sti around 8-9k. Prob best selling all the parts you have fitted and putting it back to standard so you get some of your money back

i was generalizing, north of 4-6 k is heading towards the lower end impreza sti prices. as you say the cleaner examples are 7-8k and more.
