Anyone seen any? There's enough of them around, the market saturation effect should take hold eventually....
That and when I bought my first turbo sube it was 12 years old and I paid $9k, so you'd think that impreza's are that age now.... so makes sense...

You can certainly get Impreza's with WRX conversions already done for that price. Amazingly theres one for that exact pricetag in the local WA trading paper...
IMPREZA WRX, 1996, manual, wagon, full WRX mechs, alum bonnet, bumpers, skirts, STi wheels, spoilers, spotlight covers, can email photo $10,000 ono.
(maybe its even a genuine WRX....but I assume not given the "full wrx mechs" feature).

How much would it cost to import something like this to oz?
And first thing i'd be looking at doing with the car above is remove that dodgy looking pod filter for something better.

You can't import it and register it though......
You'll need to remove the V8 and the second MOMO airbag though...

Mate, would be great but its actually a hatch that I would be chasing, and have a couple of things going on so would be a couple of months away.
RS has better features?
And cost more too, have higher k's, aren't the base I am looking for, should I go on?

Yeah an RS has a centre console, cruise, tappet problems and a better interior. You can get a wagon under $10,000 easy. But if its not what you want I will understand.
Anyway whats the plan for this little beast.

Transport mostly.
carry kayak to creek, drive on beach, tow boat to ramp etc.
Already have a liberty wagon, don't want two!
