Bargain hatch spec C
|
I did think that was cheap when I saw it. For some reason Torque are able to undercut the usual market prices for Imprezas, but other makes are at the same level :confused: |
Maybe they grabbed it for cheap at auction. I think the rest just like a big mark up as usual. id be tempted but it's wrong colour for me |
Got a forester sti going through prep with them at the moment. Can't fault thier service and I saw this one but don't have the budget

Torque GT (Spec C) and bargains don't go together

I'd like to see the auction papers for it. The price is very good indeed for a Spec C with Recaros.
|
That Spec C on the face of it is very cheap, as said, like to see its history & auction sheet, I know what mine cost this year to bring in.

Interested to know which components were swapped out to make it lighter than the STi? |

Someone send torque a email asking about it as they haven't listed any description of the actual car but just rabbit on about what spec c are and who they are. most likely a crash repaired I think at that price, doesn't look grubby enough to be a low grade |

If it is damaged repaired, it won’t have been a big bump at all. Torque do not bring crap over, it’s always grade 4 minimum. They have their great reputation for a reason and don’t risk it. Is it definitely fresh import - could be a trade in? That’d be worth a little less. |
The truth will out on this, but TGT need to give more detail on a car which is seemingly significantly underpriced

There’s a spec c for sale in Ireland 45k euros |
R grade for sure

It's was bought in for stock and has sold already. They are contemplating buying them in for stock so keep your eyes peeled if you're in the market for them

as if stock they are missing out on some decent profit if they can afford to list it at that , must of been really cheap at auction and for them to add their profit (and we know likes of tgt is not a small profit considering their overheads) I don't buy it that it's a genuine straight motor but I'll be happily surprised if it is as that means they will be a good buyers car at them kind of premiums. |

Might just be the case of not milking it proce wise as they wanted to see how quick it would shift as a gauge on the market value. Either way if they can get them in and keep it at that price then it'll be a benifit for any potential buyer in the long run |

I haven't asked specifics as such just that if I had the money I'd of been interested in it over the foz STi that I have coming from them so I can't comment on the history etc however it was mentioned it was a grade 4 car and C for the interior. Hope that helps a little

Is the owner of torque not a member on here |
Hi Guys,
Just been pointed in the direction of this thread. Thanks for the interest. This car was a genuine grade 4/b at auction. We managed to buy it at a decent price and were a little unsure of the retail mark for it with 70k miles. In hindsight it looks like we under priced it as we've had loads of enquiries. It's a clean example that's currently being prepped for its new owner. Currently trying to buy some more for stock but even in Japan these are pretty rare! Thanks, Mike |

Thanks, Mike please keep the price good for us when you get a white facelift bumper one |
I've bought the mentioned spec C from GT Torque,it's a genuine car, grade 4b.
It has quite abit of service history from Japan too, really looking forward to getting it, Martyn at enginetuner is going to look at it in the next week days. Then I'm just waiting on the DVLA 😐 |
