Help identifying STI
I've spotted this "STI" not to far from me, Im thinking about test driving it next weekend. Is this a real STI? I can't say I've seen many with leather seats? different coloured callipers, fog light covers removed?
What do you think?

Like it, Tastefull mods, Nice s204 centre dash, Seats/doorcards from a spec-d i`d guess, Only 3 things i would change, Back lights for blob ones, take DV off and swap rims for some aggressive looking ones, other than that looks nice

Cheers guys, so worth a look?
What about the price... ?
I agree on that somethings need to be changed, but that can easily be done to make it a good looking Subaru

it looks good but id say a little expensive, that said though its a very rare model being a black spec d.
the brembos are not repainted they were black from the factory as were the seats.
it shouldnt have a big spoiler on the rear though, the spec d's have a smaller wrx version, also it would have a roof spoiler if it was an sti

Thanks Tommy,
I suppose it can't hurt to go and see it, and see what price I could get it for.
As for the spoiler, it doesn't bother me enough to not see it. Thanks.

im not saying the spoiler is a bad thing as i like it, its just non original.
you can tell it had a small one as it has the brake light in the rear window, sti's usually have them in the spoiler.
personally i quite like the look of the car, it has some nice extra like the leather seats and the centre console.

Don't think that's a Spec D, they didn't come with that crappy Subaru OEM stereo.
It is an STi for definite, just think he's changed/upgraded a few bits and pieces.
