The Impreza picture and discussion thread

[Scutch]

Proper car!
Not a blob but

Love that.

 

[Herr Flick]

The one I linked above? I'm tempted myself as I could buy it now. But I wanted a diesel BM.

Argh.

Yeh and another type 25 too.
One thing stopping me at the moment from buying a impreza is this...

Living upto its owner reputation. Lol.

 

[imprezaworks]

That looks nice

 

[imprezaworks]

Would you believe it. I was trawling through youtube and came accross my old silver uk classic, lol. This video was taken by the lad who bought it from me.

[Herr Flick]

Can't wait/...

 

[imprezaworks]

Have you got one or buying one?

 

[Herr Flick]

Have you got one or buying one?

The latter. Unless I change my mind by the time the V5 turns up for the ST.

Have decided I would really like a 2005 STI Blobeye in grey for less than £7k.

 

[imprezaworks]

I'd love one. Have been browsing about

 

[Herr Flick]

Get one. It's just a shame the image is ruined by so many now.

I only want it for the winter anyway so not too fussed about that.

 

[imprezaworks]

I am tempted but I've just bought the Clio lol. Finding a decent classic for the money I want to spend Is going to prove hard. As you know they have fallen into 'that' bracket

 

[Herr Flick]

What's your budget?
Sell the Clio. I Can't stand the little things.

 

[imprezaworks]

Budget upto 3k really. I love the Clio, I hate this thread lol

A little over budget but i bet you would get it closer to 6 than 7 if you turned up.

Love that T25. I had a passenger go in a 500+ bhp subaru and it was mental, never experienced anything like it.

Yeah I've seen that one. Just sonething puts me off

 

[McGherkin]

The fact that the front splitter is atrociously fucked?

 

[imprezaworks]

That and other stuff lol

 

[yeecup]

Ill be buying another scoob very soon

 

[imprezaworks]

Anything in mind?

 

[Herr Flick]

I know this isn't a STi but I still keep getting drawn to it. High miles too.

Looks nice

At least a grand overpriced too, the per facelifts blob wrx don't demand a lot of money especially at that mileage, £2.5k is about right for that IMO.
i sold a 55 plate wagon nicely modded at £350hp with best parts and suspension set up right for £4.5k

Edit- meant 3k is about right

 

[Herr Flick]

£3k? Really? I havent seen any at that price.

 

[jay70]

4.5k is STI bugeye money, by far a superior car to the one in the link....

 

[Herr Flick]

That it may be but they are ugly as f**k.

 

[jay70]

Each to their own I guess but I tend to disagree....

 

[Herr Flick]

Yes, that's nice but the majority look s**t compared to the Blobeye.

Still want to see all these £3k WRX's tho.

 

[coleman]

Does that prodrive bumper come standard on any of the bugeye Sti's?

 

[jay70]

The STI bug was the last Impreza to use forged pistons as standard, Subaru used hypereutectic pistons in the Blob Sti's....Some regard the Bug S202 as one of the best Imprezas ever to leave the factory......as for 3k Blob WRX's, they are out there fella but to be fair, in stock form they are poor IMO.

 

[jay70]

Coleman....Only the UK Prodrive edition and the JDM Prodrive Style which is the one in the photo....The prodrive style also had a roof vent.

 

[yeecup]

Anything in mind?

It will be a classic, either a type ra or type r or p1, depends what's available. I'm moving work soon and won't need a car to get there so the car will be purely a toy for weekends etc.

 

[imprezaworks]

Great choice mate

 

[coleman]

Silly cheap estate for Dave

Fail, read it properly now, needs rebuild.

 

[yeecup]

Nice p1, pretty cheap too http://www.pistonheads.com/classifi...turbo-2dr-coupe--full-subaru-history/1682808#

 

[imprezaworks]

Lovely

 

[Flat Eric]

i love P1's!!!! they look great.
are they much better than the other impreza specs?

 

[imprezaworks]

In the uk range yeah.

 

[coleman]

Nice p1, pretty cheap too http://www.pistonheads.com/classifi...turbo-2dr-coupe--full-subaru-history/1682808#

Looks stunning, Alcons too!
