I am now the proud owner of a S201, number 28/300.

I know the S201 is a bit of a marmite car and some will say I am

However I can honestly say that this is the best "out of the box" Classic I have ever driven or owned (including the 22b)

The car is totally standard and has very low mileage. Full details can be found here: http://www.sti.jp/product/s201/top.htm

Either way I thought I would share some pics. Please enjoy and be gentle.

Those that know me know I am obsessed with the marque and its history

Cheers H

 

It is an ugly duckling but is still strangely alluring. Rare as hens teeth as well, nice find

 

Got to be the rarest impreza on UK roads! Safe to say your unlikely to pull up next to another one at the lights

 

looks a good find,whats the mileage ?

as you say very marmite and not my cup of tea on the looks department,nice find anyway looks mint

"out of the box" now added to my first post

 

30k (miles) bud

 

I don't know matey,but looking little bit like Subaru at those best times went with chav style,agreed is not the best looking classic,but i like it

You are bought probably rarest car which seems you are like it and this most count

To be fair it looks a minter .....but, if someone was to post their car with an aftermarket bodykit that resembled the kit of the S201 they would get ripped apart on this board...

By the blue seats and blue centre console parts i guess its based on a Limited?

 

great find ,take it mainly dry use then .

 

dude I'm a nightmare 2k miles a year max on any Impreza
My MOT tester thinks I'm nuts

 

Yes bud : http://www.sti.jp/product/s201/top.htm

 

My eyes!

Sorry but That's one 'limited edition' model that I am glad there aren't many of!

 

Looks like a contender for Barryboys

 

love the s2 series, from 02 onwards
nice find but not for me

 

what is with that hedious bodykit, how can they honeslty style a car like that after producing some good looking classics?

 

very nice H!

 

what are the factory mechanical mods on the s201 over a normal sti (bodywork apart)as the link is in japanese,
very rare beast though! not to everyones taste but something different.

 

I always thought this one looked good with the five spokes and the decals up the side.

I agree, i just couldnt bring myself to mod this though

 

very nice mate.

 

It's a nuts car, but strangely alluring

 

Nah, you wouldn't want to mod it.. Could end up looking OTT

 

Congrats on the new buy Bro!

 

Nice to be rare, but the s201 has never been the best looking car but that was never the STi design brief - it was designed to be the best Impreza at the time.

 

Its nice to be a little bit different.

 

Special car, love it.

 

Agree. Everything is probably function over form. Congrats on the purchase!
