Default Looking for a new shape SCALE MODEL Impreza

I want to buy a mate a nice model car to celebrate his own rally car purchase.

The idea is to find a something of reasonable scale 1:18 (or something at least 20cm in length), and then modify it to look like the car he has bought. I've made contact with someone who does custom mods to diecast models, only I cannot find the model!!

There must be a diecast model of good scale new shape Impreza somewhere, but I'm drawing a blank. Can anyone help?

(I have already searched eBay and Google, but just not getting anything)

Just tried this and it came up blank, no search results. Is there a chance that you could post a link that has new shape Imprezas available? £100 is OK, there are a few of us chipping in.
