I just found one of the cars on my bucket list of sightings, a Subaru Impreza 2.5RS, and managed to take a few photos of it, here they are:
Looks like this one is loved and driven too.
Comment if you want the original photos with no filter

Put ‘em up ... and that thing is what ... a couple grand if that? Were it to be sold, of course.

Alright, it isn’t a mini but I’m gonna do this the mini guy way. Your amazing Aston Martin wallpaper is here

It’s not how much a car costs, it’s what it means, I thought someone on oppositelock would know that. And here:

This is pretty nice, I’m going to use it as a secondary desktop picture on my MacBook Pro if you don’t mind

That looks damn close to my old RS, although mine had an EJ20k and had the rear model badge removed.

Well, what happened to it?

My RS and my buddies at a random meet over the summer. Mine on the left.

Had to sell it, after being laid off from a job. It was bought by someone in Portland OR, but I never kept track of it, too painful.

Blue-on-gold is honestly the color my bucket list said I wanted it to be. It’s clean

One of these days I’ll be in a subie meet in a BRZ

Man, I miss mine. Few bolts ons and serious suspension and tires and it handled better than the 996 Carrera 2 I drove. I beat the shit out of it and it kept asking for more. Needs about 75-100 more HP over stock and it’s perfect.

Dude. Orange markers were where it was at. Mine was a 98 too but was bumper swapped.

1. what happened to yours?

Its the motorsport colors at this point. Its like having a yellow corvette now. I wouldn’t mind rolling u to one in a BRZ either.

I not a big fan of the clear, it looks too boring. I really want to swap bumpers, but to the V1-4 bumper instead. Where in NY was that photo taken?

Traded it for a 98 Cherokee that I ended up building (parted out and sold that too a couple years after that). I think it got sold to some kid in NJ, it probably got wrapped around a telephone pole. The day before I traded it, the car was gutted for a 03 WRX swap that never happened.

Mine was in a front end accident early on in it’s life, and got swapped to a JDM bumper beam with the newer bumper, JDM knuckles, and JDM control arms. I do like the V1-4 bumper a lot too. Taken at KPPC, Kings Park on Long Island.

No offense, but I think you got a bad deal.

Eh, at the time KBB was about $4500 for each, my subie looks a LOT better than it actually was.. 190k, dents on every panel including the roof.. the XJ was clean clean and had 85k.

Still, I would only sell a Subaru Impreza 2.5RS for an XJ if it had atleast 4 Gold bars in the trunk

I have a BRZ now, sold the Impreza to cover the cost of payments for it. Figured having a newer car would be more reliable than one built from two separate cars, the engine being from another country.

Normally I wouldn’t respect someone for selling a 2.5RS. But at least you kept the Subaru coupe line going by buying a BRZ (My dream car)

Right now? Yea, I’d agree with you. Six years ago? Different story. Turned the XJ into this:
But I miss the RS from time to time, never really miss that XJ. I miss my first one.

I intend to buy another Impreza coupe in the future. I miss my old one, but this time around I want to get a real STi from Japan. Only six more years until I can get a 98 with an EJ20G.

Ill be looking forward to seeing that post if this site is still running in that amount of time.

Aye cool, I was gonna guess there or over at Pilgrim. I’m ten or so minutes from Pilgrim, probably half an hour from KPPC.

Aye, should have clicked your thing and saw you were on the island.
