I saw this at Japfest and was talking to the owner about it. It's a stunning car and in immaculate condition. The owner seemed a genuine enthusiast, shame hes got to sell it. I wish I had the pennies for it.

Lovely car but one of the worst adverts I've seen. Has to be one of the best Subarus ever made, do it some justice?

Yep I will second that
It was a nightmare trying to get it up.
Just give me a bell if interested
I've also a Harley 48 on there aswel
Reason for sale is apart from a little strapped.
I also have a bugeye version that I've had for 10yr and want to bring it back to pristine condition

It was also the car my late wife bought me and holds so much sentimental value it's off the scale
It will proberbly be my casket when I pass away to.

Beautiful car, and one to keep long term as bound to become a classic icon in the future. Very good price for what it is as well.

Theres a big difference, it's got the wider track 114 pcd, and the type ra gets a whole load of STI upgrades thrown at it. It has the same suspension setup as the ra-r.

STI wishbones, thicker anti roll bars, lateral link arms, rose joints, dampers and springs plus lightweight Aluminium alloys. the suspension parts alone are about £3ks worth of kit plus the wheels are about £2k.

This is the best Impreza i have ever been in. Pulls like a rocket and has been very well looked after. Spool is second to none and has every upgrade STI could find. Good luck with the sale mate
