a lucrative investment if you were to hang onto the car for a few years, to give you an idea some rare model JDM cars have increased in value up to 40-60% in the space of 18months Exterior In stunning condition no accident history; there are hardly any marks on the whole car truly cherished by its owner. Brilliant white paintwork still has the showroom gloss, in stunning condition extremely rare to see a beautiful example like this, literally looks like it belongs in a Museum. Interior The interior has to be seen to be fully appreciated it is truly in amazing condition. There are no signs of wear, seats look like they’ve hardly been sat in, a real testament to the previous owner. Rear seats/trim look like they’ve never been used. Non smoker car all panels/dash/door cards are like new. Very clean with no wear or tear to the carpet, plastic trims or leather gaiters or seats. The seats still have the dark factory fresh colour and the fabric is still soft to the touch! It’s not just exceptionally clean on top, underneath has to be seen to be appreciated quite hard to believe this cult classic is over 17 years old as the condition puts most new cars to shame! Just check out the pics and you will understand. It’s not far off how it would have rolled out from the factory; seals are original and the rear arches/boot are in immaculate rust free condition, underneath is also completely rust free and the chassis rails have not been dented by incorrect jacking as seen with so many (just check out the pics!) The engine pulls boisterously throughout the rev range without any hesitation; Gearbox is nice and fluent with no crunches. There are no knocks or rattles from the suspension, it really is a joy to drive! Sourcing low km rare JDM examples like this is like finding a needle in a hay stack. Overall if you are after a truly cherished example to enjoy yourself, to be part of a collection or as an investment look no further. WRX STI Type R Version info: The engine is a red top unit factory blueprinted & endowed with stronger internals with a higher 8,000 rpm rev limit. Packing a 280+ bhp punch as standard.
