It's been around for a while. I was seriously tempted but the lack of DCCD, BREMBO's (standard on a Saloon), Grade 3 and the shocking body kit put me off.

For someone who's done all his research he would know there is no such thing as a Version 7, it is a MY 01 GG STi.

It was only the Motorsport version(16" wheel) of the Bug RA that had DCCD anyway.....The body kit is hideous but a rare car nonetheless...

Looks like a good 'n' that, the side skirt & rear bumper spats suit it. The alloys are not STi though, just standard WRX, steering wheel looks well worn so would need a re-trim, can't tell what the drivers seat bolster looks like as it isn't in view and I'd remove the dodgy headlamp covers, exhaust backbox looks brand new (and loud!) but easy to change, but looks good apart from those minor points.

I wonder how much these are going for in Japan now, seeing as there appears to still be profit for the dealer @ £7k (including shipping and all other import costs)?
