what is the best year for an impreza
im new to Scoobynet. i am doing my research so i can own myself a impreza. i need your opinions to which year is the best and why. thanks

You should be thinking about how much you can afford to spend on the car, insurance, road tax, maintenance, fuel etc before you worry about what year was the best.
|
As above and depends what characteristics / level of comfort you are looking for.:)
|
thanks for the advice. my budget is around £6500, i have been getting really sh@t insurance quotes but awaiting a reply from a specialist that a few people have used from here.

I'd say get a new age WRX PPP then, not as raw as the STi

You can probably get an 01-02 bugeye WRX PPP for that, check for sale section below, Pistonheads and Autotrader. Take your time to find the right onr, it's a buyers market. Insist on full history.
|
Widely accepted that the last of the Classic version is the best all round.
Wagons are better than Saloons and stay away from the tooth jarring STi's. My opinion :D |

Not sure about the newer models but as far as the classics go I think 1995 -96 was a good year for a WRX! (version 2 cars) get a decent one and it'll serve you well. A basic modded V2 WRX is a performance bargain and all the fun you'll ever need.

I couldn't resist this V2 STi 69k miles £2.5k :luvlove: http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u105/BMGC/ks1-1.jpg http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u105/BMGC/ks6.jpg http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u105/BMGC/int4.jpg Can't fault it.:) |
bloody hell, £2.5k for (what looks like) a very nice v2 STI wagon! Nice buy!
|
Simtek, Brembos, set of Team Dynamics and its ready to hit the track:D
Bargains out there for a keen eye :thumb: |

I realy like the wagon. but as you know the missus will hate the idea of having an estate. its hard enough trying to convince her to sell our bmw for a scooby. but i keep on telling her and she is starting to like the idea.
i have been looking at autotrader. i havent yet found a PPP. am i looking in the wrong place??? i have found many 2.0 wrx turobo. What extras does the PPP add over the conventional WRX turbo?? i really need to get behind a wheel of a scooby and test drive a few. i will do that today. anybody knows where i can pick up a bargain without compromising quality. |
Have a look on Pistonheads too.
|
id personally get a classic around 99-00 but im biased:norty:
basically the car is gonna be less than 10 years old, lighter than newages, better looking than newages (imho), cheaper tax, possibly cheaper insurance too. oh and youll have change to get a few obligatory modifications too, ie exhaust, wheels, daft spoiler:lol1: that sounds like me actually:wonder: |
Another vote for a late classic. The best Subaru have made, low tax too ;)
|
my99/00 classic wagon,best looking scoob by far,good performance as they are lighter than the later cars,more involving drive,and will now be holding their price better as pre 2001 so exempt from the latest stinging road tax rises that can only go higher in time......... get them while you can.
|
Yes I agree, a 99-00 classic would be the best bet, ignore comments about wagon's being better than saloons, it just depends what you're requirements are.:Whatever_
|
Yes, wagons better looking than saloons :cuckoo: ;)
