Just had the most abusive contact with the seller of a version 6 STI limited. When I asked why it had the rear tailamp assembly with the orange indicator instead of the clear/red tailamp I have received numerous abusive email telling me that they were all an orange tailamp assy and that I am an a/hole that knows nowt
Help me out here folks,
Should a version 6 V Limited STI have an Orange/red tailamp or a White/Red Tailamp assembly.
I wish to post the link to this thread to this nobjockee

Only orange on the sti should b the front blinkers, there white/red on the back.

Yup, red and clear for an sti 6.

It's either been rear ended, had them stolen/stripped or the guy is trying to pull a fast one.

Tell him best of luck with the sale and look elsewhere.

Red/clear

I think you should copy and paste his replies

at least you picked up on the error that made you then ask, shows you that you had a feeling something didn't feel 100% about the car.

any pix of the car, is it on AutoTrader?

Probably trying to sell a WRX as an STi maybe??

I'm seen some STi's with the UK rears (red/orange) just for the integral fog light.

My advice is always the same: check the applied model number. Everything else is subjective...

His replies..

You are wrong you ****!! I have had many V3-V6, & ALL had orange indicators!! The ones you had must have been changed you idiot!!! Do you think people would change clear ones to orange ones? What a tosser you are!! Get your facts right!
You obviously have no idea about Imprezas!!!! Stick with your Saxo or Punto!

I am not wasting my time with you any more. I am not interested in what you have to say. I know what Imprezas have standard.

Do I smell a prat? This is boring me. I have better things to do. I have just listed the car again, but with no reserve! Someone will get a bargain. Shame I blocked you from bidding!!! Goodnight

Quite a salesman I thing you'll agree

uk_scoob

are u sure he doesnt think you mean the side repeaters ..

anyway the guy sounds like an idiot and thats no way to sell a car is it !

Was wondering the same thing.

Were you both speaking about the REAR light assembys?

In which case, I have seen one (on here), where the importer allegedly fitted UK clusters to pass the SVA.

WetPatch

But with that sort of salesmanship would u buy a car off him?

as the others have said Red/clear on all STis from V3 to V6 only STis to have red orange rears are V1 & 2 iirc Id steer well clear and look for a car from an enthusiast forum that way at least you have a pretty good idea that it has been looked after as you can check the cars history just by searching for posts from the seller

It's got the wrong wheels too.
Those are from an STi 5, NOT an STi6.

Looks like he's swapped a few things over before selling.

His ebay posting is asking for trouble, he will have a hard time selling that car with that attitude.

Looking at his ad, at least it's not personal. He's being abusive toward everybody. I'm almost tempted to offer him half what it's worth just to see the reaction

[Davey]

Sounds like a Class A C**T to me... My suspision would be it used to be covered in stick on tat including a nice set of gash aftermarket lights and hes put it mostly back to standard to sell it.. I'd also bet theres something wrong with it be it bent or about to let go..

dan83590

I've just asked if he would consider putting the VIN number on the advert.....

500

Asked if it has been in a rear end shunt hence the rear lights

PaulC72

he does seem a bit of a abrasive Co*k

dan83590

And his answer...

No, not putting that in the advert for security of course!! If you win, & it is not what it seems, you don't have to buy it!

Don't version 6's also have the front splitter on the lower edge of the bumper..

And there are 2 different sets of wheels as well..

I also know a few done on SVA instead of a cheepy aditional Fog light

But as said check for dull painwork in boot no gloss and put you head under back of bumper and panels, suprising howmant I've found with unpainted panels and pary No. stickers still on
