Very nice, looks like fairly standard fare, but the cold air feed in the light unit is a hint at the power lurking under the bonnet.

Awesome car! Understated yet menacing at the same time. How does it drive, is there much lag?

Thanks. It's been my daily driver/toy for the last 6 years, I've ran a variety of turbos on it... It goes very very well with the current set up, not very laggy at all, it hits full boost in the very early 3000 rpm range and pulls hard up to the limiter... An entertaining drive biggrin

Good to hear must be a real weapon. Think this might trump the evo 8 in my fantasy garage.

I love the front end, really do.

From the side
"Oh look, another blue Impreza with aftermarket wheels"

From the front
"Mmm, club-class Time Attack racer"

Very nice car OP, Loving the stance on those wheels plus the fact it looks like it's wearing a monocle!

Great looking Impreza, as others have said fairly understated at a glance but really liking your choice of tweaks.
