Default Oh dear..

Saw this on pistonheads: Subaru : Subaru Impreza WRX Type RA

Checkout the rear seats, then look at the ICE install... I am still trying to workout who or how someone is supposed to view the DVD screen in the rear or sit in the back for that matter.

I've seen plenty of riced-out NewAge cars. Maybe you should start worrying...

to carry on with the theme of WTF ...

short ratio sports gearbo
ummm an RA already has a short ratio gearbox

fast road geometry setup
why ? with all that bloody body kit on mate, it wont be going anywhere 'fast'

white leather rear seat build
right next to the original manky fabric seats..great choice

ultra rare £3,300 Do-Luck kit
you are not kidding..wish it was even harder to get hold off

and finally
over £15k has been spent on her
I think Ray Charles could have done a better job with a fiver and the demon tweeks catalogue

lord give me strength

I like the alloys and paint job but thats as far as it goes!

I know its not to most people taste, but imagine the money he has spent on it! cant see it being sold for his asking price.

Not a fan of the front bumper, maybe would look better if he'd facelifted the car at the same time though. Not a huge fan of massive installs like that, but other than that, and the roof scoop, I don't think its anywhere near as bad as you old gits seem to think it is

Why do RA's always seem to get hit with heavy daft bodykits that ruin the whole point of the car ?

Thats horrible.

Tij, I know I've probably asked you before mate, but what does the 'raf' part of 'rafpmsl' actually mean? Nothing to do with our air force I presume?

What a disaster.

Get a light-weight model, fill it with crap. Then put a massive roof vent on to increase the drag.

What the *** is the thing in the middle of the back seats? Best he can hope for is part exchange with a saxo vtr with twin 15" subs. Maybe he meant £750.
