I lost the will to live about 1/2 way down the page.

What a lemon, it is without doubt a nice car but if he spent money upgrading the power and handling then why not the brakes as well?

I would rather have a nice set of AP Racing 6 pots up the front rather than the leather Recaros to be honest.

Begs the question why is the owner selling it if it is the ultimate car? (the answer may well be in the text further down the page but I could not be bothered to go much further)

I fell asleep half way through..................

It must have taken ages to write that, despite the fact he repeats himself two or three times lol

Reminds me of that guy flogging double glazing shouting;
"I say ya buy one, ya get one free, I say ya buy one, ya get one free!"

It's also not a Spec D if it's an EU import, Spec D's were UK only, plus even if it was a Spec D it's losts it's identity any way so really it's just an STi with some Recaro Seats, different wheels and a performance upgrade!

by the time you have finished reading that advert the car will have depreciated in value meaning you will only end up paying about 12k for it

Was tempted but could not face the loss of 70 bhp. So I will put up with my bugeye at 416bhp.
