Default opinions on this classic please..

my long hunt for a nice classic continues, got the cash burning a hole iin my pocket and this is around my budget. i think the seller posted it up on here somewhere but i cant find the thread so if anyone can show me it would be great. Subaru : 1997 subaru impreza turbo.

i like the look of this one, nice mods, like the lower spoiler, wheels etc. lots of history and paperwork etc.

Save your money for a little longer and get an sti. Otherwise you'll be spending all your money on your car trying to make it an sti.

Subaru : STI version 4 Tein Coilovers with ONLY 55K

Subaru : Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version 4 Saloon

IMO the v5 or v6 are the best but they're starting at about 5k which is too much.

Hope this helps

Doesnt look a bad car for 3k, plus a little negotiation...

I know you were interested in an RA, this could be worth keeping an eye on....no reserve has to be sold...

1996 SUBARU IMPREZA WRX RA on eBay (end time 04-Apr-10 20:34:57 BST)

Its a V3

Your welcome mate, lovely looking car and a bargain.

I think you'd sell it a lot quicker though if you gave me your wheels in exchange for my originals

Good luck selling mate, should have flown off the shelf by now
