About this car

The Spec C Type RA is one of the more focused versions of the GD-generation Impreza STI, built for the Japanese market in small numbers; the dealer cites a run of 300 units. It trades comfort for weight saving, with a lighter shell, reduced sound deadening, thinner glass and an aluminium bonnet.

Power comes from the EJ207 2.0-litre turbocharged flat-four, paired with a six-speed manual and a driver-controlled centre differential. Front and rear limited-slip differentials, Brembo brakes, quick-ratio steering and uprated suspension complete the driving hardware. The page notes a performance-tuned ECU.

This blue example shows 79,000 miles and is described as clean, original and straight. It is HPI clear and viewable by appointment in an indoor showroom.
