I think i remember speaking to the guy at the Colin McRae weekender, If it is the same car it started out a a Spec-C and then had bits put on it to bring it to the limited spec,

I think he bought it like that with the spoiler/roof and interior, so dont think he has personally ruined it, prob the jap owner IMO.

The only thing i`m wondering is where had the oil cooler gone as there is a front mount in its place

It looks Shi*e IMO,

has the Spec C bits though, Roof scoop, black seats,Intercooler,bare boot etc.

IMO he has ruined it with the carbon bits and the engine bay looks terrible, cracked spoiler.

IMO its far to much money, even for a Spec C.

Dont think it was the 16" Motorsprot version, Think it was the standard Spec-C (Non motorsport & Non Limited)

I think it was me that you spoke to at the McRae weekender but I can assure you that that car isn't mine.

My Spec C is a Motorsport model which now has the black STi interior in place, my car is actually does have factory fitted AC and electric windows. I had the black STi interior on my S202 (the best factory Impreza ever) and so when the chance came up I got rid of the blue STi interior.

The Motorsport model comes with a basic interior, 16" steel wheels, WRX brakes etc as the whole concept with them is that they are a blank sheet of paper to modify to your end spec.

This is my car below



Have a look at my garage for a full specification list.

Sorry mate, I remember talkin to you but was pretty late on in the day and I'd been up since 5am and was a bit knackered, tis why I put , 'Think' and 'If' on my post as I wasn't sure,

So now it's been confirmed you can now disregard everything I have said in my previous posts

Thanks, although I think I'm going back to the standard bumper (I have one in prep and paint), so it might change again.

No it's actually a carbon fibre version of the S204 spoiler made by Kakumei.

The S203 spoiler looks like this



And mine looks like this



But I do like the S202 spoiler as well, but a new genuine one will cost around £2k inc taxes and shipping from Japan.

I'm sure Litchfield used to sell them for about £600, maybe he has a few lying around.
