Interestingly, the Jersey dealer said it was impossible to get another one as he was only allocated one but he had firm orders for three!

He sold two standard ones which the owners added lots of extras to bring them up to similar spec.

Where do people get these figures that there are still xx unsold? Is it just from registration figures? Presumably, these cars are sold but unregistered until your number plate changes tomorrow?

Surely, Subaru would not refuse sales when they have unsold stock?

edited to remove implied critiscism of Subaru.

just been to my dealer to drop of my my00 for its 15k service.

they've got 2 in the showroom sold all ready with the new style number plates - they have already had at least 1 cos there was 1 there a few weeks back also sold when i visited.

and as i arrived a transporter arrived with another one for them - not sold yet !

they said theyare proving very popular although i've not seen any on the road at all down here yet !!

I cant imagine the number/300 makes any difference at all to the cost.

Its only a cheap plastic sticker, I bet you could hypothetically make up any number you wanted for a few quid.

For legal reasons I would like to point out that I have no intention of doing this, or would not condone it etc etc .........

Question

I must be in the minority but I really like the rear spoiler

But I have a normal WRX(Silver)

Can I buy the spoiler or is it for UK300's only?

I must admit I can't believe the amount of people who think the UK300 spoiler looks bad. I really think it looks good. Mind you I like that one above as well. I still want to know if I can get hold of the vents that they have on the WRC car at the front between the headlights and grill.
