    Cool 2 Door Subaru Impreza WRX STi 1999 Coupe 5 SP Manual Turbo version 5 2D GC8 Race

    Price $9800 or Will trade with cash either way just let me know what you have



    Car is in Sydney NSW

    Wrx Coupe 2 Door Sti Ver5 1999 Australian Delivered with Jap Spec Sti Gc8 Engine etc
    I have a White WRX Coupe 2 Door STI Ver5 1999 Aus Delivered GC8 with the unrestricted Powerful Jap Spec STI Engine, Gearbox and instrument cluster (which looks awesome as it has the Tacho in the center instead of the speedo)

    I purchased this car 5 years ago from Auction it was a undamaged stolen vehicle it had the engine, gearbox, tacho and seats carefully unbolted and removed, (stolen) without even causing a scratch! there was nothing else wrong with the car at all no damage nothing.
    After buying it I replaced the engine, gearbox and Instruments from a Jap spec half cut with only 70,000Km on it and have receipts for all.
    The car has been garage stored ever since for the past 5 years, started every month and only driven more than 1km a hand full of times since I have owned it.
    The car is awesome to drive and handles unreal the unrestricted jap spec STI engine truly is a amazing drive and gives you a grin from ear to ear each time you get out of the drivers seat!! I have driven hundreds of cars but none perform on boost & on the corners like the Jap Spec STI Coupes!!
    This would make a great Race Rally track Drift Circuit Drag power cruise Sprint Hillclimb Dirt or Subaru or unique rare collectors car passionate buyer - Subaru enthusiast.

    This is a very rare car with only 400 of them made for Australia and many used and crashed for race rally purposes over time my original plan for this car was to keep it in storage as part or my collection then sell it in about 10-20 years or longer when its worth some good dollars especially after finding out from the RTA that there are only approx 60 coupes left registered in Australia.... but my life circumstances have now changed so now it has to go.
    The car is completely mechanically unmodified but the air filter, jap spec STI engine, gearbox and Jap spec STI Instrument cluster which has the Tacho in the centre instead of the speedo has been updated from original.
    Mechanically perfect Starts and drives with no problems
    Body is perfect except for one or small 50c coin size ding on one of the doors (easy fix should just pop out) and the spoiler has a crack in it will need repair interior has a sedan rear seat.

    Can organise freight if needed anywhere in Australia prices will vary from $350-$800 approx but buyer pays and will help with international shipping.

    Please feel free to call me only between 10am and 10pm on 0404 663951 with any questions as im not online much
    Car is not registered and is a stat

    The very last line of the ad reads:

    Car is not registered and is a stat

    which I would read as statutory write off.

    shame, nice car.

    Statutory written-off vehicle
    Statutory write-offs are damaged vehicles that are deemed unsuitable for repair, as the damage is too severe. These vehicles are known targets of car thieves because they can be purchased at low cost and used for re-birthing. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of these vehicles will be recorded as a statutory write-off.

    Statutory write-offs may never be licensed in Western Australia or in any other Jurisdiction within Australia. Some key aspects of these notifiable vehicles are:

    A notifiable vehicle is a statutory write-off if:
    it has been stripped of all or most of its interior and exterior body parts, panels and other components; or
    it is burnt to such an extent that it is fit only for wrecking or scrap.

    You could probably get this registered in NSW again due to being a rare care. There are measure in place to grant exemptions for such circumstances. It'd be a shitload of paperwork and running around though.

    I also highly doubt there is only 60 out of 400 still registered.

    Might be a shot with that as it was really only a financial/technical stat and they are a limited model. Wouldn't take the gamble tho

No pink badge, no lip on the front bar, silver wheels, resprayed front bar (number plate mount and the innards of he radiator inlet are black from the factory, the bonnet fit across the top of the grill and headlights is a little wide ......oh, and the VIN tags are missing from the tops of the strut towers.
