He has got so much grief for the last few years for keeping them in bubbles on scabbynet

Nige 24-03-2011 11:22 PM

These would be 4th in line after my DB5, Cobra, & GT40 wish list. :drive:

Even at £31k, to another collecter they are a bargain. Can't be more than a few in the world left in that condition.

My guess is that the next owner won't drive them much either....

Crowman 24-03-2011 11:25 PM

GT 40 first

Crowman 24-03-2011 11:26 PM

I cant get my head around having two, and not enjoying driving them

Anger 24-03-2011 11:46 PM

There not even the best drivers car out of the classics

Nige 24-03-2011 11:55 PM

Is that the Ra then? :drive:

Anger 24-03-2011 11:59 PM

STi6 RA V Ltd

Njz9046 25-03-2011 12:21 AM

This is gonna sound really bad....... What's so special about them? :)

Anger 25-03-2011 12:24 AM

Wide arches and 2.2. engine... interior is exactly the same as any other classic

admin 25-03-2011 07:55 AM

Nice:nod: But they need to be driven:doubleup:

Chunk 25-03-2011 08:25 AM

He is one lucky bloke.

But i also think the 22b is overated

Rikimaru 25-03-2011 09:00 AM

Would love one but would have to drive it. For that money though you could have a mint RA-R plus change and for me it's no contest.

Love mine to bits. Had it 3 and a half years and have no intention of getting rid. Taking my bike test soon so I can keep the miles off her.

Hell yes on the GT40! :doubleup:

I love the 22B, though I do think there may be a slight case of "never meet your idol" with it. A large portion of the appeal of the 22B (to me anyway) it what it represents rather then the actual drive of the car. Its the closest looking thing Subaru ever produced to the S5/S6 WRC cars which, arguably, were (and still are) the best looking of all the Impreza WRC's.

Exactly what I would say but, funnily enough, look whats on Ebay at the moment...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Subaru-Impreza...29420252611076

Be interesting to see what it goes for.

admin 25-03-2011 12:38 PM

That was advertised for £30k ish IIRC, so be interesting to see if it does indeed go cheaper.


22B or RA R and I would be happy:nod: The GT40 ? would that be the proper GT40 or the chubby new one?

The new one isn't a GT40, its a GT! ;)

You need an obscene amount of money for a genuine GT40, but there are some superb continuations/replicas out there.

If I had a choice I personally would prefer a proper GT40, but I wouldn't say no to a GT either! :D

Agree with that 100%.

I know (as we've seen in this thread) there's an argument for STI v5/6 RA's being a better car. They probably are. But its what the 22b represents that makes it worth so much :doubleup:

Anger 28-03-2011 06:11 PM

I think anyone who pay's over 20 grand for a classic is in Cuckoo land :D

AndyWRX 28-03-2011 06:55 PM

The 22b does look nice but i just wouldnt have one for some reason

Jolly Green Monster 28-03-2011 10:02 PM
