I hope this has not been mentioned before but I was shocked to find out xtreme has stopped trading since November 2013.

Ok they were more Mitsubishi specialists but I remember a 22B and a few other good Subaru's being sold by them.

I have continued to view their site and was starting to wonder why the stock seemed to be the same but just never knew.

Anyway just thought I would let people know if they already didn't.

Yeah realised this myself only the other day. They used to have some real cream of the crop in if you didnt mind paying top dollar.

Also they where behind making some very good limited edition Evo's along the way!! My Evo 6 RSX was a xtreme model based on a Evo 6 RS!! And dont forget the Evo 6 Extreme, and the Evo 7 RS Sprint etc etc, all very good cars, shame they went bump!!

things started to go bad for them when i think they were sued by mitsubishi for selling cars stating they were a dealer and selling cars with invalid warranties and i think they got charged £700 per car they sold and back then they were selling loads so that must of cost them dearly plus some idiotic sales men taking young people for a test drive in a lambo and wondering why they robbed it off them, shame really as they were a really good company with some very good and high quality stock

I think maybe the EVO X played a big part in there liquidation .
The X just isn't as popular as the 9 8 6
Overdose stock on 300, & 320's & no special versions .
Finding quality MR & spec ed on earlier models getting harder & subsequent it all boils down to price & profit ...

Jst a thought
