Interior has no major scratches or blemishes to speak of either. Still being used in Japan as a daily driver. High resolution pictures available on request.
We only source the best cars with clean and tidy interiors, and only those we would be pleased to own ourselves. This is why we are constantly told by clients that the vehicles we source are well above the condition of most others they’ve seen locally.
If you’re looking for a special model WRX STI S204 or you have your eye on something else, odds are we can assist you to source and import it.
The pictures shown are typical of the information we provide prior to auction for each vehicle of interest, with any faults shown so you can clearly see the condition before we discuss whether to bid, and your budget.
It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and inspection report to confirm the actual condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without this level of inspection.

I must say that we are delighted with the car and this model was an absolute bargain at the time.
