Default What a blast.
Mate called me on Saturday, asking if I was free. Told him yes. 5mins later , he turned up in this ! Went for a blast on some B roads. All I can say is wow!

Very nice looking car ,If they made a modern equivalent of this car what sort of monster would it be?

P.s I was just having a look at 22b for sale but why are they twice the price of a p1? From what I can see just having a quick look there performance looks about the same. Is it just a £10,000 badge? or am I just missing something?

I am not playing some game,I am genuinely asking the question,what is the difference? I am sure that they are MUCH better if people say so but why.

Could you not just spend a few thousand on a p1 and have the same performance?

Sometimes you're paying for the exclusivity too, but I don't know what the numbers are like.

Stunning piece of Subaru history. From a time Subaru were delivering some awesome cars. I'd have just stood and admired it!

It's like an Sti/P1 on steroids. Beautifully muscular body, beefed up 2.2 engine and uprated clutch. The value is in the exclusivity though more than the engineering. Originality and rarity will ensure they command premium prices.

It has nothing to do with performance.

Yes. He's not had it long. About 3 months or so. Just gotta love the raw feel of a classic.
