This one...1999 SUBARU IMPREZA WRX STI TYPE R BLUE 2 DOOR MODIFIED on eBay, also, Subaru, Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 12-May-09 00:49:51 BST)

Maybe it was ordered without the dccd...or possibly removed at later date.

Cant quite see from pics if it has the indicator on the dash...

ask him if it has ABS...???

Doesn't have abs can see the intercooler bottle on the pics.
Tbh Dccd is not to everyones taste so bet it's just been removed, but why is the car so cheap???

If a genuine 1999 Type R STi then the Applied Model code will be:-

GC8F2DD (MY1999)
GC8G2DD (MY2000)

Also, it should have the DCCD light in the dash and the thumbweel potentiometer by the handbrake. If the seller/car is genuine, he should be happy to forward you pics of this evidence...
