Dont know it, but ask them why its lighter than a UK model considering it has more bits on it making it heavier 
(if they come out with "its got lightweight panels" walk away as its owned by a muppet 
) and tell them its 280ps or 276bhp and the engine is 1994cc not 1998cc, if they cant even get the basics right.....

Further to what Tony has said - before you travel ask them for a picture of the chassis number plate. This will have an applied model number on it which will be GF8D(for '97MY - E for '98MY)5ED. If its D its a Version 3, E and its a V4. If it ends anyhting other than ED (8D for example) then it isnt an STI, no matter what you are told. If it has a seventeen character VIN, then its not even a Japanese market car...
Example, which hopefully wont be huge - this is from an A-Series WRX Type-RA:
