Hi there fellow impreza lovers. Havnt got a subaru myself yet but I'm going to get one within the next couple of weeks. Just sold my old sierra RS500 that's been sat in my barn for the last 7 years. So I'm on the lookout for a nice STi. Have been using the wifes Focus ST for the past year or two and I must admit they are absolutely garbage I'm sick to death of it. Have always been a Ford man but the ST has turned me right off.

With the money I bet you shifted your RS500 for you'll be able to pretty much get what ever you want!!
I was a ford fella before I got mine and never looked back!
Welcome along

Yea thanks guys the old sierra was in a pretty bad shape but still got a good price. I'm not wanting to pay a fortune for road tax so I'm looking for a 2005 STi or Spec C

Ferraris just looks crap next to a minter legendary waletailed cossie. Would of kept it but don't have the time to restore it. so after 7 long years of looking at it and scatching my head thought it was time to let it go to someone who has the skills to give it the love and attention it needs.

he told me he took it out a few years back and stopped at the lights and the window got put through and 2 blokes tried to drag him out the car!! scared to drive it now...he is a big believer in people don't see these cars anymore and loved to drive it on nice days to show it off..he might be popping down to our next big meet with it (i assured him a big escort and if anything happened they wound not get very far!! )

welcome too nesf
rs500 are awesome and a good investment.
but compared t todays standards, they are not quick at all.
but would still love one tucked away somewhere for them nice sunny days t turn some heads ....

Welcome to Nesf mate......rs500 is a different league all together, they cars that inpsired other cars to be Bilt it's just a shame ford dropped off the wagon but Subaru picked it on up for all our sakes ;0)..........don't get me wrong they great cars from standard, but modding these cars up to the nxt level, which they can take is a whole other buzz.......;0)
