Yep 
I am genuinely curious, though, what the difference is in terms of the ownership experience, rather than just on-paper specs. I presume you drove a standard or PPP STI before buying; what was it about the S202 experience that swung it for you?
For comparison, the price difference between a JDM STI and a Type 25 is about £7k. That buys a 2.5 bottom end, modified twin-scroll turbo, remap, fully adjustable suspension, full exhaust, bushes, drop links and a carbon fibre rear wing if you want it.

I quite like it really. Wouldn't necessarily be my colour of choice but if you want something rare then I suppose you may and well get it in a rare colour to boot.
I wonder if the add-on bits would come off to get it back to standard.
I bet it flies.

God knows why someone hasn't snapped it up, if I had the cash I'd be knocking on his door tomorrow..

i like the bit where in his original ad he says it walked all over a new 911turbo 
hmmmm...... i just wonder.... really I do...... walked all over is a strong word in my experience to walk all over another car you've got to have at least 100bhp & 100lbsft and that's assuming both cars weigh the same. in my humble opinion
