Didnt know where to put this, but wanted to know how much you chaps think I would have to spend to buy a Blue (STI Blue), 2004 WRX, average miles, Prodrive performance pack, in good condition?

Thanks very much for your input.

does Prodrive add a lot to a car?

Not second hand, condition / miles are more important than PPP for a 6 year old car.

well, is a Prodrive car in the same condition as a non prodrive car worth more then?

Not really, its just a red intercooler pipe an exhaust, not sure if the wrx got the fuel pump. Only ever owned gc8's so dont know alot about newer models..

Money spent 6 years ago (£1600) does not translate to today. On a good day with a following wind maybe chip in £150 quid.

Counter that with a good service history (remember big cambelt changes are £600 a pop) then the PPP fades into history.

Also factor in the same gain can be had for peanuts today using opensource mapping and the PPP put on when my 5 year old lad was a twinkle in someone's eye is worth..............well, peanuts !

Guess so, but cambelt changes are only £600 if your doing all the tensioners aswell, otherwise your looking at £220 by a Subaru specialist.

Sounds like someone is trying to sell his 04 wrx with ppp and doesn't like how much people have said it's worth.

Personally I'd say £6k is lower end of STi money. 04 wrx with ppp would be anywhere from £4k to £5.5k imo.

I bought mine 2 days ago, so who are you talking about?

Is it not a bit late to ask how much the car is worth if you've just bought it?

OK then I'll change it. Looks like someone has paid over the odds and doesn't like what people are saying it's worth.

As I said above, I'd value an 04 wrx ppp from £4k to £5.5k. Someone else said £6k. Another person might say £8k and another may say £3k. At the end of the day a car is worth what your or someone is willing to pay for it.

I didnt know whether I had paid over the odds or not, I paid less than £5500. I actually gave my 2003 wagon that had a boosting problem, bald tyres and some slightly different colour shaded doors, and £1400.

I wanted to get an impartial view, that why I worded the thread the way I did.

Might of been better to not have pics of my new car in my garage, I think what I gave would be about £5k in real money.

Not a bad deal then. 2003 wagon with problems, knackered tyres, dodgy paint and ave miles? I'd have though that's worth £1.5k to £2k, maybe £2.5k tops unless you get someone who has no idea what they are looking at and then the bit of cash you gave is a good deal imo.

The paint wasnt really dodgy, but, the front bumper, drivers door and passenger door, and the bootlid had definatly seen paint in the cars life, I know the bumper had, becuase I painted it, and it didnt come out as well as I would of liked. The wagon had 94,500 on it, and my new car has almost the same.

I just wanted some honest opinions as I have made mistakes with cars before and ended up on anti-depressents!

The new car is definatly more "honest" i've checked the car from top to bottom and wasnt able to detect signs of damage or paintwork being done.
