A few questions mate, what are you going to be using it for, what are your plans in terms of modification and how much is it costing you?

Is that landed and registered or hammer price in Japan. Seems a very good price if landed mate. Its essentially a WRX (nothing wrong with that) so thats why I was asking about modifications because that could determine your base to start from. But based on price that is significantly cheaper than the JDM STI.

Thats landed and registered in UK. I know its a WRX but I cant afford STI. The milage is 124k so its quite high. It looks like a good price in comparison to UK prices and I favorite the EJ20 as the reliability, road TAX and fuel usage. I have a bug WRX but I fancy something newer.

I didn't lol, wasn't sure where it sat in the line up. STI prices are insane mate, sounds like you're getting that at less than half the price of one.

I could probably get a UK WRX for £6-7k but thats a 2.5 engine and in my personal opinion 2.0 engine its better.
Anyway thanks for advice.

I don't think you could get a UK WRX for that price anymore. Unless hatches are far cheaper . Prices have gone mental.
