Q cars
As much as I like imprezas I am a little put off by the "in you face" appearance that may have. I made the mistake of getting a forester STI after my WRX thinking that this was more discreet than an impreza STI. It has done nothing but attract unwanted attention since having it (not least because I got it in WR blue) for example the very first time I parked it up (on a "secure" carpark with CCTV) some ****** with a screwdriver nicked the STI badge of the back scratching the paintwork in the process.
I would really like to get an impreza with all go and no show, I was thinking of something along the lines of a grey/silver JDM A-line STI, having it as a base for a type-25 conversion, having it completely debadged, front mounted intercooler and bonnet replaced minus scoop.
This would make for a great Q car as external appearances would belie the formidable performance within.
So this lengthy preamble is requesting pictures of the most understated STIs please with comments on their performance credentials.
Many thanks

Yeah, The A-line is what the JDM call the spec-d but this goes further still and does away with the boot spoiler and is replaced by a small lip.
