if only it was in white. Should i sell an go for a RA?? Decisions decisions. Hope you all like it. Your thoughts and ideas to mods.

Love the wheels. Really suit the colour I think First mod i'd do are centre caps for the wheels.

Out of interest. What year is this? I thought deep blue mica was a 99/00 only colour but the front grill is from a 98 :wonder:

KOEScoob 23 October 2018 04:18 PM

Thanks LewisScoob. I was actually considering to sell for a White RA. Its what i really want. Centre caps for the wheels are on the agenda, I think the standard Rota ones will fit. This is a 2000 classic. However, yes in regards to the grill, it has been taken from an earlier version, luckily enough matched the colour so well i didnt need to get it sprayed. Bazaar but there you go. ha. the color of this is 95H.

Also, thank you all for the comments above. I now have Tein S Tech lowering springs on order. once on the car, i will provide updated shots.
p.s. A white classic on gold formula mesh would be just be heaven for me.

I think these wheels are now discontinued from Rota. but may be available from wheel dude in the U.S.

Thanks mate, i'll let you know if i want to sell. it is an option but the wheels wouldn't be included. It took me over 6 years to find a set. haha

jaygsi 29 October 2018 12:43 PM

Like the orange light combo, did you buy the car like that? As sure seen one with same light combo on here a while back.

Thanks Jaygsi, Nope, i didn't buy this like this, it had crystal clear lights everywhere, i change it all, i always preferred the early look of the subaru's. Can you re call whos Subaru you saw that had a similar look? Woul be interesting to see what they had done to...

I think after installing the lowering springs, il park this car in storage as its only done 65k from new and move on to either a RA, GF8 or Forester.

Pete 29 October 2018 05:15 PM

Lovely looking car buddy, I’d not be changing that for a white one, a blue RA however. Lol, I’m biased of course ;)

Thanks Bud, haha really? mmm, It is a nice color but i just think the white sets it off for me. Next project for sure.

eptommi 18 January 2019 11:33 AM

wow, that is one of the best looking classics I have seen. In the market for my first impreza at the moment and have been trying to decide on a classic or a blobeye, I think this may have helped me make a decision!

RRP1STI 18 January 2019 09:41 PM

Looks damn fine that!

Vonhinton 19 January 2019 08:29 AM

Mate - gorgeous car, I love the color offset by the wheel colour and style - reminds me of clio williams combo, but looks great for the scoob.

derek sti 19 January 2019 11:14 PM

Stunning car ,perfect stance.

KOEScoob 21 January 2019 09:06 AM

If you ever do decide to sell ;)

KOEScoob 24 January 2019 09:23 AM

Scoobynet would be the first to know if its for sale. haha. currently looking at the next project. Type RA or S14A.

Croney 15 March 2019 11:38 PM

I love white wheels, but gold goes best well with the blue. That blue is in my opinion better looking than transit van white, keep it blue and gold, its a lovely looking car you have.

Thanks Bud.

I have some updates. Gold looks like it will be.
But the hunt for a transit van Subaru is still on.

haha, i dont think it will hang around long either. Lets put it this way, i have been offered around 8.5 at the moment. so i reckon i can push this a little higher as im sure there is someone who will be after it quite desperately.
