Default heres the new SPEC C- vlimited i picked up last week

hello everyone after a few years of owning other cars ive finally gone back to the dark side i picked up this absolutely immaculate spec c (words honestly cannot describe how clean this car is) it may aswell just come off the production line. its totally standard never seen a wet road a track a guy from a tvr dealership & 1 women owner(she must be one hardcore girl ) its going to be a shame to drive it but thats what they are for i spose. Iwas thinking of upgrading some of the suspension parts i was thinking of using the orgional sti ra-r trailing arms, lat links roll bars and centre brace and keeping the stock spec c shocks with sti pink springs. i was only thinking of sti parts from an ra-r to keep it standard. anyone with any advice, experience or just to comment please do. im new to this forum so as soon as i can ill post pics utaka - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

THE GUY WHO SOLD IT TO ME SAID THE GUY LET HIS WIFE DRIVE IT AND HE DROVE SOMETHING ELSE. TBH I DONT CARE IF TWO ALIENS OWNED IT THE CAR IS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO I FOUND OUT TONIGHT WAS PETE HAS LOOKED AFTER IT.THE LOG BOOK SAYS 2 OWNERS THE CAR IS PERFECT. SURELY THATS ALL THAT MATTERS

good thing i bought it then i liked the black wheels but as i said the black wheels were on the car when i veiwed it. might wait until crimbo is all done and out the way and get a set of the sti ra-r white 18's but the alluminium whites are a monumental amount of mony

Very nice car - I quite like it with black wheels, although if I could choose I would go for a dark grey colour.

Cheers Sparky..


This Spec C is stunning, it,s almost TOO clean to drive, could quite easly be a concours car but they weren,t made for that imo..

I sold it because it wasn,t being used and it was money just sat in the garage AND if i,m honest i do prefer the car i have now, but as said, great Spec C.

Enjoy it pal........

utaka, nice purchase mate.

I bought the white spec c that jan was selling last saturday.
Awesome car the spec C and would say is the only impreza i could have after owning a sti 5 type r.
He sprayed the wheels on mine black aswell, why i dont know???
which is why i have a set of original S204 18" to go on this weekend.

i'll put some pic up soon.

Hmm maybe we should start a Spec C gallery thread to just how many of us there is.
