You can get early RA's in just the WRX form

Jap Imports 19 October 2003 11:39 AM

Yea i know you can get a early RA that aint STi but what about a late one 1999.

A lot of people think that the R or RA is only an STI thing. :rolleyes:

You aint the first and you wont be the last to make that mistake. Its all about cheaper lookalikes. :D


Boro 19 October 2003 04:14 PM

I think the point Jap was making originally was that he thought it would have been an Sti for the age not that they didnt make them as WRX's as RA's. Thats how i read it anyway :p
