That's right! That was you... yeah, that car was much quicker.

Funny, I sold that OBS to this guy in Oakland. He wound up getting hit in it (it got totalled) and he bought a Forester. The rest of it then got sold to BANSUVS for parts.

Small world...

Did you notice the different color white that the hood was painted with? And the fact that the headlights were different and that the fogs didn't turn off? Both fenders have def. been off the car and the entire front was resprayed.

The rust is because it's an east coast car...

Also, for new brakes it just felt... soft.

I was thinking about it but have my eye on another car.

did you guys notice the wobbly crank pully? and the radiator was crooked

I know it's not an Impreza but this one keeps coming back up... I almost feel bad that no one will but this car... It is pretty clean... but the miles are through the roof...

Yeah I have been lookin at that one every day.. Gotta say, if a RS is around 6-8k and the swap done right is going to be getting close to $15k depending on a lot of things - not having seen the car, it could be OK if it's Ref'd and ready to go.
