rare impreza
just wondering lads whats the rarest production impreza
|
Probably the S201, though its ugly as hell :lol1:
Tony:) |
AKA electra...i think...ugly as sin...but had every single part from the parts bin from STi...everything..body, susp, interior, engine, exhaust...the full works..
|
and styling that is unique!!
|
i think there was 300 s201's made but i think that there was only 100 black prodrive styled bugeyes and 100 blue jdm prodrive styled bugeyes could these be the rarest
|
mines the only one that has the number plate V915*** :D:lol1:
|
This as very rare - WRX STi 'Barry' edition - limited to just one only:norty:

|
What about the WHITE P1? Only 1 ever made in white IIRC:wonder:
|

They used about 3-4 cars to get the model right, some being type RA's the others being type R's, believe there are 2 white UK registered ex prodrive type r's out there which were the basis of the P1. Tony:) |

Tony:) I know it could have been faked but alot of trouble for those half/half bits. Casablanca? Saab9x thingy? They must be quite rare (although not quite Imprezas) SWEET :) http://home.arcor.de/goep6/bilder4/g...lancaKLEIN.jpg http://www.9motors.com/images/saab92x.jpg Quite like the Saabaru |
Casablanca is just a NA impreza wagon...I keep these handy just in case nobody believes me :D

Would it not be the 22b type UK only 16 ever produced and some of them have been written off.
Sherlock |
Didn't Prodrive have some 1.8 GL's with EJ20 engines. Developed stuff on them, then when they were done set them free into the outside world. Had 5 or 6 if I remember correctly (about 1994/95)

Sherlock depends on if you consider it a different model to the jap 22b |
The first batch of WRXs were down as 1.8GLs on the log book to get them in the country from what I remember.
Genuine rare I would agree with the 22B Type UK. Best rare buy I think is the black Prodrive bugeye only 100 made. There is also the "Prodrive Style" bugeye which was based on a Bugeye Spec C but had the front bumper of the UK Prodrive cars. I've seen one on here but not in the flesh. |

at the open day you could have your pic taken next to Petters WRC car, so that's what the White P1 will be next to

The white car wasnt ever a P1 though was it? It was a development mule so it will have been an STI V that ended up with a similar mechanical specification to the P1 that was released.....
Dealer/importer special editions dont count; so Id suggest that either 1994 STIs or S201s are the rarest, as there are 300 of each. Considering that the 1994 STIs were manufactured in two separate productions runs, then Id suggest that the original 'of 100' STI Saloons and 'Wagons are the rarest, at 100 each... Simon |
