I have a 1999 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS for sale, in USA - Montana.



Asking price is $11,000



The time has finally come when I am ready to part with my baby. It's a Black Diamond Pearl 1999 2.5RS with a 2005 ej205 out of a wrx wagon. I believe the body has 113k on it. I'm looking to get $11,000 for the car. Trades for a miata plus cash are a possibility as well. On to the mods list:

2005 wrx ej20 w/~43k on it

I may be forgetting something but I think that's it. The car will come with the stock steering wheel though. Keeping the momo for my next car, where it'll fit better haha.

Why am I selling it?
I want a MIATA!

 

Nice! Good luck with your sale.

That's what's up.

 

Nice Ride... I have a similar car but it is not as nice as yours.

 

Ugh, it makes me want to trade with you.

 

WOW that car is absolutely gorgeous. good luck man

 

Needs better pics.

 

needs to trade me for my 2000 altima.

 

God damn I want that car with bronze 6ULRs

 

Trade for my Miata and a GPZ550

 

Try NASIOC.com if you haven't posted up there. I didn't see it, but maybe you already did.

$11k might be around the "fair" price for a swapped 2.0 liter. Unfortunately, the harder selling point is you didn't get the rest of the WRX drivetrain.

Good luck! It's beautiful looking in the pics.

 

I kept my RS drivetrain because it's just as strong as a wrx drivetrain. It's been argued that the RS tranny is possibly even stronger than the 02-03 wrx "glassbox" and I prefer the shorter RS gearing. It's all in how you drive it.

I haven't posted it on Nasioc and chose to post it here because I'm going to buy a miata when I sell it, and have a friend locally that's interested in it. If he were to back out, my next move would be to try a trade and cash with a miata owner. Looks as if he's going to go through with it though, so I should be in my very own miata soon!

Plus, no offense to Nasioc but there are a lot of douchebags on there and I'd rather see the car go to someone who's not going to go "floss it to his bros" and beat the hell out of it. I want to see the car go to an enthusiast who'll respect it for what it is and take it in an even better direction. I really shouldn't care since it's not going to be my car anymore regardless, but damn it she's my baby haha.

 

Damn I didn't know GC8 sold for so much state side I can buy a 03 STI Spec C for 11k.

 

we never got a turbo version of the gc chassis here stateside. It's always so frustrating to hear of guys in Japan buying version 5 sti's for like $5.5k

 

Yeh my friend Rich (0ldgc8 on NASIOC) just bought a 99 STI Ra limited with a stock ej207 for $6200.

 

I know when I sold my wagon, I cared who ended up with it b/c of my reputation and pride that went into the car.

The reason I suggested NASIOC is the number of folks that like the pre-2002 body style RS.

 

Plus there's plenty of douchebags here.

Sale pending

 

I <3 the GC8...it's the best looking Subaru hands down. I'd almost contemplate trading my Miata for something like that.....

 

I'm miss my swapped 2.5 RS :(

 

Love... GC chassis... must not do.... something STUPID.

I could use a car like that >:3 All it needs is bronze wheels~
