Default Pistonheads car advert - overpriced ??

Seen this car on pistonheads and thought it really does look rather nice !!! not serious about buying it but just wonder what the general opinion is regards the price / car in general ??

looks nice in black but having had two previous black coloured cars have vouched to never touch one again !! you know spend hours and its gleaming only to be back to square one within just a few days !!!

Looks OK and well kept, but I don't see why the owner has gone so overboard with Sti fakery and presumably spent a lot. I don't like the Sti logo sprayed on the wrx intercooler and wrx brakes painted gold!!
If you are looking to buy, you should be able to get an '03 Sti for not too much more.

My production manager is about to advertise his 2003/53 WRX in WR Blue.

STi interior, scoop, wheels, steering wheel, rear wing, fog light covers etc...

Suspect he'd take under six...

I wouldn't buy it because i don't see the point in buying something pretending to be something else.
Plus i couldn't be bothered delaring all the mods to insurance companies when getting quotes.

7.5k for a straight one's still good value though

Hey, have a word and get some details. PM me with them if he's interested in selling, I'm waiting with cash for the right one. Any idea on mileage and SH?

looks a nice motor ut like nearly all cars on pistonheads they want top wack for them.
Nothing wrong with that but ive seen a few real 03 sti with less miles for around £7k.

if your willing to wait then theres quite a few good ones going for stupidly low money
