The Impreza picture and discussion thread

[Herr Flick]

Would have to be atleast a 7 for me to consider an evo.

 

[imprezaworks]

6 is miles better than the 7 IMO. But this a story for a different thread

 

[Herr Flick]

Looks

 

[imprezaworks]

Hence 6 being nicer .

This is why I said you have dreadful taste in cars. The 7 was the first runt of the evos since the 4!

 

[McGherkin]

Is someone saying the fcuking E word in here again?

 

[coleman]

After 4 imprezas I quite fancy an Evo.

Nice white Evo 6 on Oz superleggras.


or even silver

That's the one! It's an absolute beauty. Looks so so clean.

 

[Herr Flick]

That does seem a great car.

[imprezaworks]

Bargain

 

[Herr Flick]

Saw that a few days ago. It's not even anything special FFS.

 

[Djw Dave]

I had a wagon for about 3 months over the winter was great fun but I was always concerned I was going to kill it, not sure why. Just looking under the bonnet scared the s**t out of me. Sold on for a tidy profit though.

 

[coleman]

Lovely V5 Type R on Gumtree for 4.5k, low mileage too.

[imprezaworks]

Gumtree

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

I didn't tbh, but after seeing EvilGraffs scoob i kind of like it.

He has the gold Speedlines as his summer wheels and i believe its on coilovers with an nice sounding exhaust.

Oh you

Speedlines ? Millennium Revolutions ...

 

[jay70]

Its back up for sale for a very nice profit if he can get it....http://www.pistonheads.com/classifi...-sti-v9-twin-scroll-dccdandwidetrack/1707674#

 

[dano17439]

Heres my old one. Sold it in Februay, kinda wish I hadn't

 

[DaveDreads]

I can't believe how many people on here have gone from an immaculate Impreza to a 1*2,
i'm looking to do the exact opposite to that.

 

[yeecup]

Probably due to running costs

 

[DaveDreads]

That is a concern, doesn't stop me wanting a JDM STi Wagon though.

 

[ChewyB]

Not a good photo but I sold this one for 1500 quid a few months ago was mint had some nice subtle mods. I only bought it over the winter to have some fun in the snow. I'll be picking up another one soon to get me through next winter.

 

[imprezaworks]

People's thoughts on this.

96 Jdm wrx in white. 77k fsh with lots of bills etc. been modified properly by the right people running 300bhp. No rust, only a slight bit of laquer peel on both rear quarters, about an inch. £3k

 

[yeecup]

Bit steep for a 96, depends on scale of mods though

 

[imprezaworks]

Anyone else wondering why Rich has a rather nice looking Hawkeye STI as his avatar?

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah yeah, rich do tell....

 

[Herr Flick]

Lol unfortunately not. Still looking for a grey blob eye sti. If we weren't moving, I would definitely gone for the one in my avatar.

 

[imprezaworks]

I'm very tempted by this classic...

 

[Daniel]

I'm very tempted by this classic...

...Said imprezaworks every day.

You say that about every car you post. In fact, I don't think a week has passed since the day baby Jeebus was born that you haven't said you've been tempted by one car or another!

Just buy it if you like it. If you don't get on with it, punt it on. Life's too short to worry about stuff.

 

[yeecup]

this thread has not helped all of us subaru addicts on here!! iv seen the perfect sti ra for sale, one i wanted when it was last up for sale, version 3. in white. FFS!!!!

 

[imprezaworks]

I know the one mate looks very nice. And Daniel, I know.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Probably due to running costs

I don't get it.

Avg. 25 vs 35mpg .. both high-RON. Hardly 65mpg diesel vs 15mpg petrol supercar :S

Insurance, maybe £1-200 a year more expensive on the Impreza. Hardly world-ending.

Tax, identical. Poss cheaper on Classic than 182s (£225 on the scoob this year for ref).

Aside from that - standard wheel are 16" on both (classic) .. 17s on newer age models - hardly bank breaking if you're sensible.

There's a recession on.

 

[Herr Flick]

Oddly, my imprezas have pretty much been the cheapest cars I've owned.

theyre hardly expensive to keep on the road.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

There's a recession on.

Oh.

I'd better sell the car worth £1500 and buy a brand new small car to save myself £200 a year in road tax.

This time next year I'll be a millionaire.

Right ?

 

[imprezaworks]

I neve once had issues with running costs on mine, although was cheaper back then lol.
