My New Ride...Subaru Impreza WRX Sti

abhisheksircar · 2nd April 2007, 18:33

Congrats Dude !! Glad to see people considering investments beyond the 3 pointed stars as a good investment

One of my friend recently got a Impreza over here for 60K SAR (7.2Lakhs INR approx) Still remember the day we picked up the beauty and heard it rev up .. man thats was the sweetest music ever. Now after quite a bit of running in he has started revving it to the red line and WOW .. mind blowing. He was actually looking for a WRX but it was not available hence settled down (cant believe I am using this phrase for a Impreza buy) for the fully loaded version of the standard Impreza. His next plans for a Turbo Charger.

Enjoy the beauty and do not keep it fragile .... these are built to perform .. specially the WRX .. need not emphasize on this much ... your taste tells it all

Yeah after reading the Neovas name and seeing the little tread on the side I realised that they werent slicks.

That is one handsome car. Congratulations Mugen. What kind of roads do you have in Morbi? This car generates huge volumes of torque, I believe. Do you have WRC style dirt tracks there (actually stupid question, don't we have them everywhere?). The locals must be in awe of you and your ride. It seems perfectly maintained too.
By the way, how hard is the ride?

Hey congrats on getting your new ride .. This car would be awesome to drive after the OHC that you had earlier ..

Read the price. It's in SAR, Saudi Arabian Riyals. And it's NOT a WRX.

Thanks prabuddhadg, Jay, Varun, abhisheksircar ...

Roads are not very good but there is 4 Lane 8-A National Highway so i can rip it on that highway.

Ride is not very hard but after driving the C220 or Innova it fells bit hard.

a real killer on the roads.Not many Subaru Impreza WRX STI on Indian roads I guess.Keep it in a good condition

Rehaan · 7th April 2007, 03:58

First off, i am INSANELY jealous...

I dont think nuts just go missing. Its probably the locking nut thats been removed to make it easier in case of flats. I had the locking nuts removed on my GTi in college because they were always extremely hard to unbolt.

Hey,
