Question 25k to spend

Was thinking about a 6 month old WR1.

I've noticed that devaluation on these is pretty dredful so it's a lot of car for the money.

I may lose some but I want of the WRX wagon - it's a bit of a shed really.

What are 2nd hand type 25s going for (assuming that there are any available)? Might be worth looking into? If not Spec C (with the "hardcore" proviso). How about a JDM STi. 25K would get you a very handsome UK spec Sti with money left over to take it to TSL for the "333" conversion or Prodrive for the PPP, Or decat and Ecutek....You're options are really pretty much open with that budget. Have you taken into account insurance and maintenence though?

First buyers suffer the worse depreciation, by buying 2nd hand, you've saved yourself a good chunk of the wallet ache! :-)

That feeling will only last untill you have to fill your pride and joy up the first time though. Prepare to take shares in Shell! :-)

Best.
