4-5k I'm thinking dependant on buyer paying extra for you mods.
But in value terms with mileage and car I'd say more close to £4k

It's seems that is all they are making at the moment, a friend of mine had his up for £3500, 04 with 76k and fsh, which i thought was cheap, but after over 3 week with no takers ended up letting it go for £3100.

I wouldn't the bug sti is a much better base car if you plan to mod it. Stronger engines some have run 500 on std internals but the majority 400-450 they have a near on bullet proof 6 speed box which is used in most big builds. Also you have the added extra with the suspension tweaks and the brembo brakes.

Stick with the bug sti lower it on some decent 18`s and try and get one with the prodrive front bumper and they look mint.

Petrol prices ,road tax and recession
Very small limited market now for all performance cars ;only cars that are selling well are cars with free road tax or cheap as chips road tax and high mpg.
Went to look at a subaru for sale yesterday at a dealer but they wouldnt budge on price so just walked away i reckon it will still be there in 2 month time

A pal just sold his 54 plate STI ppp. 51K with just two owners, pretty much standard apart from a few suspension upgrades, an exhaust and some nice wheels.
Best he could get, £6000.

Think about that when pricing up a WRX. It makes an older WRX at £5750 look way too expensive. The market is bad at the minute guys, unless it's very cheap or very special it just won't sell.

It's a nice car you have there chap (desperately wants a set of spacers on the rear) and a very nice spec too but unfortunately it's just not worth big bucks. I reckon it wants advertising at £4995 for starters and be prepared to take a hard bid or drop the price after a couple of weeks.
Other thing to do is put it back to standard, sell the parts off and take late three's for the car.

Question is, are you desperate to sell ?
If not you could hold out a little longer and hope a buyer comes along but remember, the value is only ever going to go one way. Wait too long and the hit might be even larger.

Thinking about selling my 2006 55 plate immaculate black hawkeye wrx, purchased new and only covered 12k, nice mods around 380/400, uprated brakes/suspension, serviced every 700 or so, dry summer use only, not sure what to ask Tbh.

thats the problem i have if i was going to sell.
yours has so many one off mods its hard to put a price on it.
its also hard to tell people how good condition it is as everyone says its mint and when you go and look they are sh1te.
hopefully if someone sees it they would realise they wouldnt get a better condition one and buy it.
12k though thats got to add a fair bit to the price.

Sad thing is it will probably only go for around £7.5k if that.

Seriously considering an STi Bugeye in a year or two once my classic is about ready for the knackers yard. The string drivetrain appeals rather a lot currently with prices dropping...
