The wheels are awesome, dare I say they and the mirrors are possibly the only pukker WRC items on the car.

Looks like someone is try to recoup the money they spent modding the car by dressing its up as something its not, clever marketing i think not.

Hmmm now does that mean they are not actually road legal?
I remember some for sale and it stated on the wheels (oz?) that they were not road legal wheels, just for rallying.

I do agree that the title needs to be changed. I will speak to Colin and see if he will change it.

Given the modifications the price isn't that high, mods usually don't add value but these are some decent mods. Just the fact that it's claimed to be a WRC when it's actually not.

Work out the cost of a good S202 in comparison, probably set you back 12k with less miles on, all the STI goodies etc and no dodgy body kit
the panels when fitted are worth nothing, doesnt matter how much they cost in the first place, mag wheels, I dont think they are actually road legal because they are motorsport wheels so different strength (not as strong but lighter than a road wheel), a standard jdm sti MY01 would pull in 6k on average, even with that sort of mileage, its seriously overpriced....
