To use an expression I once heard on this BBS.. "It looks like it was driven through a "Halfords" window and all the bits are just hanging on"!!!!

 

Think that expression was used by Clarkson on Top Gear to describe a certain mitsubishi evo

Still very apt though - its hideous.

electra one prototype did the rounds about 2/3 years ago. Just a show car I think ie never went into production

 

here is a road test of the production car that WAS released...

Front lights look awesome.

Can they be purchased?

 

Can anyone tell me the make and name of the wheels used on it?

Thanks

Justin

 

it did go into production and only a few made. ill find out what its called. cant remember at moment. was in Banzai about 7 months ago i think

 

The car that did go into production was the S 201 I believe.
(as in PWebbs link)
Still bloody awful (IMHO of course!)--John

 

I would like to get my hands on the lights.. Anybody know of anywhere you can get a set like that..

 

Yep, production version was S201.
There have been a few posts about this car. Shame search is down.
Check the website..

For the lights have a look at POC's car in the Members Gallery.

 

The S201 was the most powerfull production Impreza that was made due to the revised STi ECU that was used. IIRC the power was 300bhp with 274 lbft.

actually all the parts that were clagged on to the s-201 are available individually from sti - that's why it looks a bit like the contents of the sti parts bin all rolled up together ;-)

if you check out the archives in the poweraxel sti section...
http://www.excite.co.jp/world/url/bo...=JAEN&wb_dis=2

you will be able to find part numbers etc.

btw - if anyone is interested I have an original jap brochure for the s-201 - it looks bl**dy awful in that too ;-)

POC doesn't have the same lights - the SO1 or whatever this beast is has 3 lenses! I would buy them now if I knew a place that sells them.

I think the existing lights are the most dated aspect of the classic shape and updating the lights makes it cut the mustard...

 

Same here, I think the lights would change the front of the car completely

 

I know a place that sells them. well 2 places. stand by 1

 

Looks like a mess....

 

but I bet it CORNERS well....

 

If you look carefully on the back it says pedigree chum

 

Importfan (american company) does them and the Impreza stuff can usually be found at http://www.homestead.com/importfan_impreza/impreza.html

main url is Http://www.importfan.com The site is down due to breaking bandwidth limits but i know for a fact they do them or at least have them featured on their website that they sell them. have pics and prices up website aswell as the bodykit for the S201.(Neo Electra bodykit)

I have a few more url's at home. Will look later.
