Body & Paintwork

Arguably one of the most aggressive looking Subaru Impreza’s from the factory….. The ‘Hawkeye’ is arguably the best looking modern day Subaru Impreza. It is also arguably the most sought after modern day Impreza shape variant.

This example is still wearing the original paintwork, as you would expect from such a low mileage and low owner vehicle.
We have also had a two stage enhancement (machine polish) carried out professionally and the paintwork/car looks absolutely fantastic – none of the usual cleaning marks/swirls in the paintwork.

Other than a few very minor marks which you would relate to a car of this age (a small mark on the front nearside wheel, a couple of very small stonechips etc), the car presents absolutely beautifully.

All original decals and badges are still in place, which are all still nice and bright without the usual fading.
Again, the wheels are the correct original wheels.

No modifications have been carried out, other than a change of tyres, so this example presents exactly as Subaru intended.

Interior & Trim

As you would expect, the interior is in superb condition throughout.

The original steering wheel and gear knob are in great order with very minimal wear, as are the seats.
The carpets are without any damage, and the original Subaru floor mats are also still present.

No modifications have been carried out, so no nasty screw holes from extra gauges, the dashboard and all trims are all superb and as new.
Everything works just as it should do, and is exactly as Subaru intended.

Ready to be enjoyed or added to a collection.

Engine

The engine runs perfectly as you would expect, and has just had a service carried out which included an all important cambelt change.
A cold start confirms that this is a nice quiet engine, with no unwanted noises either when cold or hot.

Likewise, on the road the car performs just as it should do, with a smooth power delivery throughout the rev range.
No smoking at all, either on start up, on boost or on overrun.
The car really is brilliant to drive.

The engine bay itself presents very well indeed, exactly as you would expect from a low mileage and cared for example, in fact the original protection wax is still in place.

Running Gear

All running gear is in very good order and this car is an absolute pleasure to drive.

All wheels are good with the exception of a couple of small marks on the front nearside wheel.
When on the road, the braking performance is superb and straight, all discs and pads are in good order – and of course the original gold Brembo brake calipers are without any of the usual lacquer peel.

The gearbox is a pleasure to operate, as is usually the case with a Subaru, a lovely tight and direct gear change comes standard on the Impreza models.
