Hi.
I am thinking of buying a classic salon to use mostly on the track,
With that many to choose from I'm unsure of which ones to start looking at.

Price wise i would say around the 4k mark.

I have never owned a classic,always had wagons

So which ones shall i look at?

Cheers

sti v3 -v6 , get an ra if you can find one, lightweight , driver controlled diff plus low ratio box.

 

what he said, you're also not far off type r money there.......

 

and remember the deep pockets to keep it on the road

 

Don't worry mate,I found that out a while ago

 

Classics come in wagons too

Picked mine up cheap and unmolested. Wagons are a good buy and more commonly unmolested I find

 

I know cheers mate should have said,never owned a saloon lol

I have a 2001 bugeye wagon now, but fancy another toy to dedicate to the track

I know

Wagons make great track cars, easy to work on the interior and carry wheels to events

Early STi's will have the shorter ratio box making them quick and eager as well as having a TD05 for starters. RA's are without doubt the most desired factory track car but in all honesty once you strip out an impreza and add power you blur the lines of whats best to start with. In all honesty the best car to start with is the best you can get for your budget, rot free and as clean as you can find. CDB aside early STi's of all incarnations are the best fun by a country mile

 

So which one then

ra
Sti ra
Type R

What is the difference between the ra and sti ra?

 

If its a fun car for track i think the sti ra would be the best bet version2 cdb dccd.
But i am bias.

 

sti type r and sti ra
