2000 W , WRX Type RA - HOW GOOD ARE THEY?
 

Hi People, Looking to get a Impreza again, and am looking at a WRX Type RA 1 of 1000 Made (No.342 I think) , with 20,000 Miles from new. Oh its a Jap Import as well, so 280BHP:)

Is this a good model to go for , or should i go for a sti 7 standard,

Its In sonic Blue, with Lovely 17" Gold rims, Big blue mud flaps and nice exhaust, Should be able to get it for about £9000 - £9500.:Whatever_


Comments Please, :idea:

The ra will be quicker but the sti will have more toys in it.
It really depends what you want from the car

As leon said, it depends what toys that were ordered when new. 20k is particularly low mileage, try to ascertain that they haven't all been track miles. Lots of info here.

Personally id go for the RA as toys, gagets and stuff dont interest me. I bought my RA because i wanted a car that was quick as standard (although it never stayed standard for long) and pretty much basic apart from the elec windows and abs

Will be picking up my version 5 sti ra ltd on friday,after owning a modded uk for 5 years.All these recent threads on type ra,s have been winding me up over the last couple of weeks,and can,t wait to get back to scooby ownership... :notworthy

I think its time we start a type ra thread in members gallery.... :idea:

Sounds good to me.
We could call it "Type RA Corner" perhaps

go for the type ra, i'd have to say that as i got one.

Genius :idea:

Your 2 door ra could cause a problem though..... :norty:

What about if i stick the Ra sticker on my boot :) :)??

Hows it goin Adam , you raced your mates Merc yet ?

PS Will find the nut for ya in morning mate ;)

:thumb:

Yes 4ndy doin well,still getting used to that power delivery,especially mid corner with diff open,need a few more driving hours before taking on the m3 csl.......i,m pretty sure i,ll keep up with him though.... :)

Suspension coming off in a couple of weeks so wont be needing nut till then...

Cheers

taylor, have you got the dccd version?
