Default Another newbie!

Hi all,
Thought I'd do a quick introduction and start the questions off! I'm totally new to Imprezas and hoping to have my first one by the middle of the week! The car in question is this one:
Used Car Details

As said above I'm totally new to scoobys and have been trying to work out what all the different model numbers mean but haven't had much success! What model is the car in the link?!

Cheers
Martin

Replace those fcucking ugly headlights with a set of morettes, paint the wheels a better colour and that will look quite nice...

Looks like a tidy enough car, like Norman said change the lights, I went down the STI route and then let the modding begin

Welcome to the fold, you won't regret it

Qiuck hello, oh and Let the re-mortgaging & divorce begin

If your like me then owning a rapid car that you intend on making even quicker, agile and more appealing to the eye, then £££ talks. Dont get me wrong if you keep the car relatively standard or small mods then it wont cost you long term, but most folk on here as like me can not shake off the bug of constantly modifying yer motor at vast expense, but then i wouldnt want it any other way .

As you did wih buying the motor, get some advice from here about everything mate, even the service etc.... expecially modding the car . Too many garages out there who think they know what they are doing when in fact the havent a clue what a boxer engine is

Good luck with the motor, Rob
