This is suppose to be for business but thanks for the JDM entertainment

[@dailydistruction]

Cleanest looking bugeye I've seen, those head lights were crystal clear. Great looking Subaru.

[@nukeboy27]

Those are how they came stock in Japan. I hate the look of the US bug eyes. The car was designed to have those black ones not the shity ones in the states

[@czierwo]

OMG! Under slightly different circumstances I'd be swiping my card... This is absolutely insane. Whoever owned this car, must have spent more time in his garage than with his wife...

[@tia1103]

Man this is the cleanest car I ever seen, look brand new! Funny things it has 04/05 tail lights, sides skirt and hood scoop and 06/07 rear diffuser.

[@TheTrollsNextDoor]

do the 04-05 hood scoops fit on normal 2003 wrx's? i really wanna do the swap but i wasn't sure if i need a different hood

[@coopsnz1]

Yes . See them on bugs in Australia

[@thorlarsen9770]

go to ebay and buy your Subie parts, no middleman, and the parts come right from the manufacturer for a fraction of retail price at least in the states.. I don't know about international pricing ( :

[@RedPanda555]

This would look infinitely better with 03-05 or 06/07 headlights. But rest of car is super clean for its age!

This is the nicest car I have ever seen

[@riorompero1314]

Daniel Deville You’re joking

[@BecamePneuma]

Beautiful car. The only thing that needs to change is that scoop. Get the JDM STI scoop.

[@giorgosmentekidis3653]

Great impreza and fantastic reviews, generally. Even better than automotive websites.

[@UnderAchievrLP]

you have just made my day

[@ProgrammingNewbie]

Very nice! That rumble there, just luv it!

[@trustgtr33]

super clean..

[@The_One_Over_There]

usually i'm not the biggest fan of the bug eye models But this one looks so good, i'd love it for days

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

Best looking saloon bugeye I’ve seen.

[@jerrydufresne1886]

This is so beautiful

[@geovannygerman1939]

That's gorgeous

[@damajinvegeta]

Incredibly clean

[@Unbleachd]

if i die and go to heaven and get to pick 1 car.... if they have them up there im picking this car absolutely beautiful almost brought a tear to my eye!

[@bunsofsteeeel]

It's got the blob eye rear lights and rear bumper, nice car.

[@orbitaaltube]

That is the cleanest bugeye i have ever seen. what a find. how much is this car listed for?

[@coopsnz1]

it would sell for 25k in Australia

[@coopsnz1]

super low km entry level ones sell for 13500 usd

[@drkevorkian3668]

Ben Chesterman fuck off you know it all

[@George13sageika]

@@coopsnz1 25k hahahahahahaha for a 2002 good condition car? you can give 10k more 35 grand total and buy 2019 subaru sti premium package... in my country these cars are selled around 8-9 grand (but ofc not in that condition) so i give 5k more max total 13k !!

[@abc_u_hater]

I got one for 5500 with 23k origional miles in america bugeyes are cheap as dirt here

[@felicianozamora242]

Oh my DAMN that thing is gorgeous!

[@jdmmaster345]

Nice vids thanks

[@stubbk3]

That's pretty mint. Pro drive is just down the road from here...to be fair it's a collectors keeper i wouldn't sell it if i was you lol

[@ahmedp800]

It is unbelievably clean and rare! Why would anyone sell it?

[@RP-xb3vh]

Funny how Japanese tuners add every single electronic gadget they can find inside the interior while most people can’t even read their speedometer correctly... 😂

[@PreparationdobleH]

excellent looking bug eye

[@KAS470]

I want this so bad. Holy crap.

[@Sp_416]

Beautiful

[@Favulous01]

Satisfying.

[@spacer567]

lovely car ive got one great cars

[@Zerofightervi]

Also, any chance of seeing a video of the Pajero Evolution? 😀

[@AmritP]

clean mate, is this coming to NZ?

[@michaelhughes3273]

"A lose your license car", I like that!!!

[@codybarton3817]

Beautiful. I got my 06 with 33k miles and couldn’t pass it up being that low.

[@edwinvazquez4029]

You better still own it

[@DatBlueHusky]

im glad my motor sounds the same as this one lol and i thought i had loud ticky injectors

[@BraveAutoInternationalJapan]

If your motor sounds ticky to the human ear (not through a camera) then you have a problem. If it sounds ticky through the camera then chances are you do not have a problem because depending on the type of mic on your camera will depend on the noise because 95% of mic's on cameras make all engines sound crap.

[@CrankyyUS]

Isnt the side flectors on the side panels the circular orange ones on the 05? subaru impreza wrx?

[@alenhawk5768]

Damn nicest subie ever

[@oscarhollywood]

Are the import law changes in australia in 2018 going to work better for import businesses?

[@hideffanatic2709]

I wonder how much it sold for. Great looking Bug Eye.

[@Eric-fb2mq]

Do you ship to Canada?

[@jamesoakley6]

Nice bug eye 😁. Is it only the type UK version that has 18" OZ Prodrive alloys? Well thats what mine has.

[@andrewb.5996]

Lovely old gal! I have the latest incantation in the same colour.

[@alexhughes7788]

Amazing. actual dream car especially with the wrx spoiler. what was the asking price in the end?

[@binzsta86]

More than you can afford pal.

[@saxpayne4302]

@@binzsta86 It's a old car.. Newer sti cost way more than this. Don't need to be disrespectful.

[@corinful]

I wonder if you could find one in this condition again?

[@Emmepi37]

Renault Spider, great !

[@abc_u_hater]

Didn't even mention the front end. That conversion is about 1,000$ alone

[@paulgrahamedwardspencer5161]

It looks brand new

[@Zerofightervi]

The circular sticker on the top of the windscreen with the numbers on, what is it? I had one on my old Evo IV but never knew what is was?

[@obiwansama]

Zerofightervi I believe it is the date for when it was registered in japan. My MY00 GC8 STI had a July 24 2000 sticker on it.

[@izaimariusz1]

THAT WING.....

[@DrakeMR2]

carporn, whoever detailed that car please do my car. I wouldn't feel right sitting inside unless i had just taken a shower. ps that sw20 is sexy

[@ampuero24]

Hermoso

[@carlkielton8372]

what kind of exhaust is that

[@willbill548]

im pretty confused as i was told you cant import any wrx into Australia anymore. is it possible to import them to Australia still, thanks.

[@SI0AX]

Why not? I was under the impression you could import any car into Australia without limitations as long as you pay the taxes and have legal modifications.

[@coopsnz1]

Don't we have these cars in Australia 10-20 k aud

[@vikingfromthenorth7]

Holy shit is this thing awesome

[@boostedlionmedia6835]

What exhaust please i need to know

[@bobyminicap5496]

Please do you have the wheel size ?

[@umbertovanstaden2651]

My dream

[@PedroFTeixeira]

Great looking car! Only weird thing is that it has a wrx steering wheel, instead of the 3 arm black/grey Sti one. This is probably to sell, who ever gets it, buys a great car!

[@karlmckenna647]

My UK Prodrive edition had this same wheel, think the 3 spoke wheel only came on on the blob eye onwards.

[@coopsnz1]

Bugs didn't have sti logo

[@derekdok]

I want it.

[@atq42]

Hi there. Beautiful bugeye im lovin it so much. I am currently looking for a bugeye, basically just like the one in the video. Blue with gold rims but LHD. Would u happen to have anything any stock? Kindly let me know. Thank u

[@nukeboy27]

What country?

[@atq42]

nukeboy27 Bahrain (Middle East)

[@kabob21]

You're better off finding a limited edition STi in a country that's already LHD. Nobody would bother importing a LHD Impreza back into Japan where the cars are made and are available everywhere.

[@Blazerri]

The real question is: Does it leak rain water inside the trunk? ;P

[@markholt8247]

Anyone watching this know what kind of hooscoop this is? I know 04+ WRX STI scoops don't fit the 01-03 WRX hood and I bought an ebay one that does but it doesn't look like it's supposed to be there. Where as this is the one I have been looking for and need all the help I can get.

[@garryh3126]

Mark Holt Series 8 wrx

[@peterjohn1969]

Iloveu Subaru impreza 🇹🇿😘

[@georgesti400]

you say that because you have not seen my own 16 year old car, and I currently have 36000 km.

[@fluffypanda8287]

I wonder where this is at now

[@kefkeuh]

That Ferrari 550 :o

[@kefkeuh]

Ow fuck, is that an RX7?

[@greenmondaymorning]

RE Amemiya body kit

[@mitch9894]

greenmondaymorning it's actually a FEED Widebody kit.

[@GATORSK8TER]

what happens if your driving along and a bumble bee comes in the roof vent? !

[@mikey_gc8]

GATORSK8TER shit goes south sir, but you gotta be a man about it and finish your rally stage 🤙

[@GATORSK8TER]

EJ20G GF8 lmao for sure just ignore me if I scream like a girl

[@boogiestreet594]

how much was it?

[@thanhtang57]

Does anyone know what is the name on top of the roof?

[@SpeedSyko]

Mommy Like!

[@tailopez5106]

Why does it have the blobeye taillights/bumper?

[@BraveAutoInternationalJapan]

Maybe the last owner liked the look.

Are you able to ship this to the US and drive it legally?

import it yes

[@ExciteLetsPlay]

no

[@Mowerguy94]

as long as it comply's to us safety reg/emissions then yes

[@sofakingtouge2399]

Has to be 25 years old.

[@nukeboy27]

no not legal until 2027

[@domse16]

People talking about it being clean... All subaru's im seeing are dominated to the grave, im trying to find that will last me atleast few years. All the youngsters abusing this car isint fair, then when you tell em that the car is only worth for parts they start swearing, showing exactly how their character is and how they abused they car.

[@eastcoast78]

Do you answer emails?

[@BraveAutoInternationalJapan]

Yes although as of late we seem to be receiving more than we can handle from new customers.

[@eastcoast78]

Brave Auto International Japan - JDM Auction Agent ok sounds good. reason is ibemailed other night. But I'm in no real rush just asking a couple questions about prices on shipping to Canada etc. cheers.

[@eastcoast78]

And how much the going rate is for a 4 or 4.5 subiebugeye with under 100k landed in Canada

[@boogiestreet594]

Man the owner ruined it, It's missing that SICK Impreza boxer sound, butcause thats the 2.5L JDM engine, it's connected to aan exhaust header with 2x2 equal length header pipes. If you wanna turn the 2.5 back into the normal beautiful burbling sounding impreza, just replace the header with one that has 4 feed pipes coing fro the header that rin 4 different lengths... perfect car. No equal

[@skatelife2013]

Emaculate. Just lose those decals . definitely a "lose your license caa"....lol

[@unknownwatcher43]

Wrong tail light

[@kanebowser-wieser3667]

This car is scary
