Hi guys just uploaded some pics , one including plaque on console that says full works build number 007 of 300?

Very nice looks great shape, only thing I could see that I would sort out was the calipers. But lovely car mate looks great

Hi , yes calipers to get painted in the spring i'm just glad there not jamming on like the RB5 i had,  also picked up a set of brand new gunmetal work emotion 18's for her but not sure of what tyres to fit , but apart from an oil & filter change she's as i bought her, the car does have a factory keypad code fitted to center console aswell & the interior was similar to the 2001 bugeye i had, i will not be dissappointed if it's not a LTD EDITION, i just enjoy driving subarus & compared to the Mazda MPS, where all the power goes to the front wheels, you feel a lot more in control when you do gun it

[Gambit]

I agree it does look a bit like the Bugeyes. And love the work emotion alloys, keep saying to myself I will get a set so I can swap them over at winter to save the ones I have on now. I know what you mean by the feel of them nothing I've ever driven has come close not the most comfortable car in the world by any means but not what these cars are for :)

looking good - we looked at an MPS before opting for the Subaru just didnt like the idea of fighting it up the road all the time, felt far more in control in the impreza
