I think there only going to go up in value it's hard to think nice scooby for sale

Blob sti's gone through the roof and classics are strarting to go up as there able to import the 93-94 cars in the USA under the 25 year rule so prices in Japan are rising fast at the auctions now which in turn will effect good cars over here .

There aren’t many 93-94 cars left in Japan now either and yes, the ones that are there have certainly gone up. Unlike Skyline R32s for example, the early Imprezas weren’t looked after very well and many were exported to the likes of us who treated them like **** as well - apart from me :D

Best comparison is with MK1 Escorts. Plentiful and cheap at one point, nobody cared .... and then there were hardly any left. A couple of years ago you could get a usable and presentable Impreza Turbo for £1,000-1500. Now it’s £3k minimum.

I’ve had my STI V6 coming 6 years, cost me about £3500 and every year or so I have a peek at prices and must say I’m amazed at how cheap Impreza are really.

I’d decided to keep hold of this one as every other car I’ve had is now worth a fortune (low mileage Clio V6, R32 GTR, Cossies etc) so Sod’s law they’ll always be cheap haha

Looking at how dead it is on here I’m amazed they haven’t picked up more value as they must be relatively rare nowadays but I still think they’re a comparative bargain compared to other old performance cars. Mind you I don’t think evos are particularly expensive either really.

Nah, neither of those are what I would call presentable. Sticking by what I’ve said.

James, longtime no speak buddy, how’s things? Car is looking cracking pal, I totally hear what you’re saying about Cossies etc, as you know I’ve had loads, wish I still had my 22B too, just has 12k mileson it, hey ho, I don’t do regrets.

Pete aka Staffi ;)

No idea why you’re so desperate to prove me wrong Jay. Fact is that any £2k Impreza will have plenty of issues, or the owner doesn’t know what he has.

Black one spares or repair knocking engine
silver one 150000 miles dented and stone chipped and far from standard
black one 201000 miles
burgundy uk turbo say no more they never sold when they were not very old
silver automatic which went for spares

the prices in japan know have gone up so you won't see any imports coming over as cheap soon as the early cars are getting swallowed up to the USA
94 wrx Sti 69k km sold for 22000 usd
94 Wrx sti with 112000k km sold for 12000 usd
93 Wrx 100000km sold for 7000 usd

Japanese classics over in New York have a black 93 wrx up for 15000 used as there able to get them now under the 25 year rule all I was saying was for good standard original cars if you can find them watch this space .
