That's got to be a work in progress though?! Surely!? Looks like it may or may not be the Revolution back end.

TBH I think there are good and bad members on both the facebook groups and on here. I use both sites mostly to buy parts and sell the few bits that come off my wagon.

There are idiots and elitists on all these sites as everyone has varying levels of knowledge.

The only reassuring factor is that if there are so many spunkers being sold on all these sites the nice ones will hopefully go up in value

Yep clearly a car of 'work in progress' status...seems harsh to have a dig when it MAY just need finishing in a paint shop - and if my eyes don’t deceive me looks like it’s been turned into a 3door - which is alright from my point of view.

+1 it looks to be well done just requiring paint.
facebook page imprezas are usually non turbos with a wrc sticker kit and lexarse lights with an illiterate **** behind the wheel.

The reason the cars break in the first place is the bad advice from the **** nuggets that use sioc and other subaru related fb pages.
Its just full of scammers and idiots.
