Clean big spec Bugeye Impreza Wanted
Apologies in advance if not allowed to post this here. I'm looking for a clean Bugeye Impreza. Things I'm looking for are big spec, forged engine, JDM/STI Xenon headlights, prodrive front bumper, clean shell, clean MOT history etc. Would prefer STI but can go with an WRX if the spec is good.
Willing to travel the length of the country for the right car. Ideally would like to get an forum owner car too, with a bit of history on here. I've got a decent budget. I would also consider an STI Hatch, Hawkeye and a Blobeye, in that order. |
No classic on the list 😮
What's your budget? There is also a car forsale thread on here. |
Hi mate, budget is about 15K. Yeah, have been checking the For Sale thread on here regularly. Not many bugeyes. There's a nice silver one for sale but not too keen on the styling.
Not really got a fancy for the Classics. Do recognise they are quality cars, just mainly the styling isn't for me. Just a personal taste thing. |
With that budget anything less than a mint s202 and you've seriously had your pants pulled down.
|
That's my max budget, and more so for the non bugeyes that I would consider, like a big spec sti hatch. Would like to think I can get a really nice bugeye for less, obviously.

Have you consisted importing one yourself? Or contacting torque GT or Hurst cars to see what they can offer?

All the jdm sti’s ive had, that were fairly recently imported have had little or no mods the japanese don’t seem to do much with their cars , one had suspension mods but nothing else , i a few months ago sold my jdm sti wagon on a 2001 plate , immaculate a few tuning mods, fresh import , for 5k£ , i always thought the sti wagon as a bugeye looked good , the version 7 is forged engine , the ver 8 you get the twin scroll , so your budget does not need to be that big depending what you are looking for , a fresh import is a good move |
Wasn't big Keith on here selling his yellow s202.

Yeah, that might be worth ago, cheers.
Yeah. Going to look into this. Cheers. That max budget is more for non-bugeye imprezas. If so, I would be very interested. but i bought a blue bug sti instead. |
Glad you got fixed up Kris,there are plenty of cars out there DM but not many like the s202 going up in price.Mike is right do not overpay for a bugeye my car isnt mint but its not £15,000.
Good luck with the search. |
Cheers Keith. Yeah, Not really looking to spend 15K on a bugeye. It's more a flexible budget if something like a big spec STI Hatch came up (stroker kit, enginetuner etc), if I can't get my hands on a bugeye.
