2003 Subaru Impreza WRX

Few platforms offer the breadth of capability, reliability and outright pace of the early-2000s WRX, and this 2003 hatch is without question a “no expense spared” example built to a serious motorsport standard. Professionally assembled and maintained throughout its life, this car presents as a fully sorted, turn-key package ready to be enjoyed.

At its core is a brand new EJ207 bottom end paired with carefully selected STI and aftermarket components, complemented by a 2004 STI 6-speed driveline and Group N rear differential. The result is a cohesive, proven combination that blends durability with performance. Putting down a very respectable 211kw at the wheels (refer dyno sheet in image gallery), this WRX has more than enough power to put a huge smile on its next owner's face.

Rest assured that the car's chassis and braking performance have not been overlooked. STI Brembo brakes, DBA T3 rotors, Endless pads and a comprehensive Whiteline geometry correction package ensure the WRX not only accelerates hard but stops and turns with authority.

As you can see from the image gallery, both the exterior and interior of the WRX have also been suitably upgraded, with a host of STI and quality aftermarket components. Driver and passenger safety is bolstered by a Walker Chassis 6-point cage, Bride seats and RPM harnesses, whilst a full complement of gauges ensures that the driver is fully informed of the car's vitals at all times. All in all, sitting behind the wheel of this WRX is a very nice place to be indeed.
