I don't know the prices, but as nobody else has replied try these websites:

Pistonheads classified
Scoobynet
Autotrader

Look at similar cars for sale and that should give you an idea of what the car is worth.

Put the same request out on scooby net to... nothing back on that yet either :-(

Thought there would be someone on here who would know...

Sounds about right to me. The WRX with PPP does produce slightly more power than the standard STI and is slightly quicker to 62 mph. Price seems in the right range and if it's a UK model then comes fitted with category one alarm, immobiliser and tracker. Hope that helps a bit

Anyone interested at 10k?

Personally i think 10k is too much! The dealer only offered me £8000 for my one when i was thinking of changing, and £8500 if i had the prodrive pack. My one is on a 04 plate with a tracker and is in exellent condition also. When i wanted to trade my car was bang on 3 years old with 50000 miles on.

they are also a pain in the arse to sell private.. no more than £9500. He has also changed the wheels from standard WRX wheels to STi wheels. You need to verify that it has the prodrive pack either by confirming with the certificate and also contacting a friendly dealer to say it has the upgrade fitted professioanly.

Funny you should say that, As I went on webuyanycar.com and they offered my £40 short of 9k and they normally offer you well under what its worth ..for eg 17k for my M3 when its up for 23k.....
So that must be a good sign ??

[stevieb]

Check this one out same spec as the one you ahve been offered

So pretty much exactly the same apart from a year older... so 9.5k on a year older with exactly the same spec and miles...

That means putting it up for 10k is about right in my book ???

[m3sye]

oh wait there didnt read it all the way down lol...

the colour is wrong tho IMHO for a Subabru... should be Black,Silver or Blue... Red just does not look right.. so Im sure that makes it harder to sell...
Black with GOld wheels looks good .. and thats coming for a non subaru guy ...

Mayb 9k to that website is a good deal then

Oiiiii I have a red one and its less common in red than black silver or blue!

But the 9k deal from the website is a good deal!

lol sorry mate.... just saying from a none biased point they look a bit more agressive in black or the rally blue....

They are pretty rare in RED and someone out there will love it with the gold wheels on. There are plenty of Black and Blue ones around but they do look really nice in those colours and are very saleable, not sure about Silver though as it's not my cup of tea for a Scooby.

I'd have said £10K isn't far off and dealers in any case always take the p1ss so ignore them. Put it up for £10495 to test the water and see what happens. You can always drop the price a bit if you need to. Good luck
