This is a 2002 (Heisei 14) Subaru Impreza WRX STI, GDB chassis, round-eye front end, GH-GDB body code, 1,990cc turbo engine rated at 280hp with a 6-speed manual transmission and Brembo brakes. It is a 4-door, 5-seat, AWD sedan finished in Impreza Blue with 143,131 km actual mileage. Shaken (Japanese vehicle inspection) is valid through May 2028. The car has power steering, power windows, air conditioning, central locking, ETC, and a navigation unit with Bluetooth. It rides lowered and wears a teardrop-style rear wing, an aftermarket teardrop-style duct, and factory fog lamps. Aftermarket door speakers and a subwoofer are installed, though the sub-speaker output is intermittent. The original steering wheel is included with the car (no airbag, which is normal and shaken-legal for this model). Recent engine oil change was performed. The seller describes it as fully running and drivable but is selling it explicitly as a project/base car rather than a clean example, citing its age and mileage. Full walkaround, cold-start, idle, engine bay, interior, and driving videos are linked by the seller. Sold as-is; buyer arranges transport, and self pick-up is permitted.
Seller reports accident/repair history (unconfirmed details due to multiple prior owners) and lists several known issues: a slight dragging/scraping noise from the left rear brake, cold-weather clutch chatter and slow power steering until warmed up, a faint burning-belt smell, peeling clear coat on the roof, a repainted hood with visible surface imperfections, curb-rashed wheels, mismatched mirrors, and a non-functional radio antenna (cause not investigated). Seller has no records of timing belt or clutch replacement.
Shipping: Buyer must arrange their own transport/shipping for this vehicle; the seller does not handle logistics. Self pick-up (driving it away) is permitted, and the seller requires a copy of the buyer's driver's license and a signed liability waiver at handover. Long-term storage after sale is not available.
