Hey guys, I currently drive a 93 MX6 LS but its time for a change. I was wondering if you guys could give me an idea on a good start. Maybe the difference between the models and years for the 95-01(not sure which gen this is) imprezas? I'll be using this car for autocross and my price range is around 5grand. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
The Impreza RS came out in 98', which has the 2.5 liter engine in it so a 98' or newer RS would be good. Other than that I'm not sure but I think that the Impreza L 2.2 liter, with AWD, and a 5 speed came out in 96'. Before then, I think that the 5 speeds had the 1.8 Liter. The Impreza came out in 93'.

If you're looking to autocross, you'll have a hard time getting an AWD Impreza for $5k, and will have little money left for mods. The RS models started in '98 and you can't hardly find one for less than $8k, and that would be a 98 with high mileage. A good condition 2000 or 2001 RS with average mileage is still worth $11-13k. A 1993 AWD L would still run close to 4k, and of course would have well over 100k miles. 
Imprezas aren't really the 'budget' choice for autocross.
