Default Is my 95 Classic a special Edition??!!

Hi ppl,


trying to find out exactly what model my import 4 door turbo is...i've rang dealers but coz of it's age they can't get details using my chassis number (plus with it being an import).

It's mica black so i believe (has a red fleck in the paint)

Grey trimmed door cards and seats with STi on seat backs.

The paint is standard for an import (same as mine).
Check www.sidc.co.uk for their faq.
Nice looking motor by the way

I have black with red metal flake too. Nobody believed me at the cads meet the other week!
Could be a WRX with STi parts on.

What does it say on the green slip?

Its a standard car; the Black Mica was a standard colour, although its quite rare. There are a couple of things that make me think that its a MY95 car and there werent any special editions then. The only thing that it could be, if it was a MY94 car, is one of the 300 (one run of 100 and one run of 200) STIs. If this were the case though itd have an STI plaque on the inner wing and a number of other features.

It just goes to show how much nicer STI3-type rear lamps are than chavved-up 'Lexux' lights doesnt it?

'Black Mica' was the only black available on JDM cars (at that time).

You should read what Ive written again and think about it... What do UK cars have to do with 'Black Mica' being the only JDM black? Take your time now.
