Smile Best place to buy JDM cars from? I want a wagon!! :)

Hi,

I am after a JDM Wagon preferably an STi (v5) as with an ever growing family the saloon is becoming a little too small and with my insurance going down a shed load I fancy the move to JDM. I would like a classic with the updated interior (I think this began around 98/99)

Are there any places where I can pick up a good import from? I have recently serviced (60k) my Turbo 2000 and put 4x tires on her so don't wanna get rid of her and end up with something that needs more work. I want a reputable dealer preferably who specialise in either Impreza's or JDM cars...

Can anyone help me in my search?...

P.S

Did they make a v6 STi Wagon?

Hi Ross,

Have you managed to find yourself a nice Wagon yet?

Seeing that you liked the idea of white.....I have come across a nice white 1998 STi IV Wagon in Japan that we can take across well within your budget if you are interested. Low mileage, cracking condition.

Drop me a quick e-mail: chris@koi-performance.co.uk and I can send you more details.

Very Best,
Team Koi
