If it has a PPP (Prodrive Performance Pack) fitted you should have an official certificate from Prodrive.

Not sure what the link is above?

If it is a ppp model then it should have a Prodrive certificate to state that and Prodrive label inside door. Usual Prodrive extras for a Wrx are blue y intercooler pipe under bonnet. Prodrive back box, 3rd delete cat. Prodrive ecu. If its a sti ppp then also sports downpipe.

That looks like Mica Blue (No such thing as Prodrive blue?). Also they are Morrette headlights and everything else looks standard (Bumpers etc).

Prodrive wise, there is the Prodrive Performance Pack (Optional extra) and a Prodrive style bugeye, which I think is an STi not a WRX

Im 100% he is full of it

There is a Prodrive Performance Pack that can be fitted but has nothing to do with bodywork. Or there is a Prodrive style bugeye STI Type UK which has a different bumper etc . , which you dont have .

......not excitement over IMHO, cracking load mover and although the TD04 turbo is small it has cracking spool up and is a more of a traffic light hooligan than many a hot hatch. and with 4 wheel drive
