Subaru brought out 1000 ice metallic blue impreza STI's to celebrate Petter winning WRC in 2003, Prodrive took 500 of these and fitted PPP, along with
Pff7, some suspension mods and grill kit, the official paint code for this colour is 23G if that helps.

I would recommend the full car not just a respray, awesome bit ok kit

The WR1 impreza is Ice Blue.

In 2005 subaru started selling imprezas in Aqua Blue very simular to the WR1 colour but a little lighter in colour.

View my scoob to see one in Aqua Blue.

Nice looking motor, but it does make me ask, why make it look like a STI? I actually wish i had bought the STI but i would not change it to look like one. Not having a go just curious

. The official car Subaru released to commemorate Petter Solbergs WRC title is the one you can view in my scooby. Only 555 units were produced in Japan only.

Unfortunately I do a lot of miles to work and back. Really wanted the STI but didn’t want to get hit in the pocket too much. So I went for the next best thing, a WRX and fitted the STI spoiler bits.
I if I knew then what I know now, (No impreza is cheap to run) I would have bought the STI.

What you have is a V limited, rare and very nice car in its own right. But i don't think these were made to celebrate Solberg winning the WRC.

A limited edition Solberg WRX was produced for the European market(ex UK) and basically resembles the WR1

I beg to differ pal. Roughly translated - my car is the official release of Petter Solbergs 2003 WRC title.

Will possibly do a deal with pcm, was very tempted on the s204, but was not the right time.

As requested an ice blue car

PCM should be able to sort you out. Jap spec all the way. s204 is awesome, would love one myself but a bit out of my price range. Quite smart that ice blue edition.
