Where is the best/cheapest place to buy an imported WRX and how much are they compared to UK prices? Any differences to UK models? And are the new shape as bad as everyone says compared to the original Impreza? Wont be able to afford one but would be nice to know how close I could get!!!! Any info would be much aprreciated folks....

You'll have to speak to the dealers direct in Europe for that price, other options are going through a broker such as
litimports, or keyring cars.
Do a search on google.co.uk for the above names as I can't remember the web address of the top of my head.
Average Euro import from the above is about £16,600.

Had a look at a pre registered Bug eye @ Tradesales yesterday. It looked very nice in WR Blue, only had 1.6 miles on the Clock, it came with a WRX plate and aircon but no warranty for I think it was £17695.
It was not a Euro car, but it was not Jap spec so I think it came from Malta or Cyprus. Had a look under the bonnet and there was some coolant which had leaked from somewhere. I had a think about it, but as it is not a EU car with Subaru warranty and not JDM spec also considering it is a MY01 and it's pre registered I thought it was overpriced by about £1K.
I have been thinking of ordering directly a Euro STi myself but came across a WRX for just over £12000 plus vat and a few other things needed, such as Cat 1 etc. If you look on the car-import guide website at www.car-importguide.co.uk and follow a few links you can find out the prices in a few European countrys.
Also if someone would just get back to me about there P1 they want to sell quickly I might be able to make my mind
up.

BL - how long did your WRX take from order to delivery?. Looking at importing a WRX - was going to go through Keyring, but why not deal direct if they use this guy anyway?
Had a look on their website - but it's in flemish! Who do I speak to there - what were they like to deal with?
Ta!

Jon1T - Ive waited 5 months for my wrx. Keyring fee was 195 + 400 delivery which means it arrives at you door on a truck ready to drive off - less hassle.
I have to sell an s reg turbo to pay for it if anyone knows anyone whos inetersted.
