Spotted - 2000ish JDM WRX...

[redbaron303]

I saw a black 2000ish wrx this am... when I came out of my parkade. Sure enough the tool driving as i'm trying to turn right on 12th ave hits a redlight puts it in reverse and just about backs up into the side of my G35... So as I'm going around him, I decide to give a look into his car to see what the jackass driving looks like....

It was a tiny asian girl, though problem comes in - she isn't driving... I do a double take and there is some tall white dude in the 'passenger' side with a steering wheel :-P

Just gotta say, thanks for almost backing into me on a road with no parking in the AM...

Nice ride, sure... but unless you immigrated from the UK or elseware I'd like to know how you got it here, it really isn't 15 years old and god knows I've tried to find a way to do it legit w/out risk of having my car removed from me... If you are on this board and have tips on how to screw over the Cad gov't I'm more than happy to listen, but take some driving lessons before you head out next time.

When you say a '2000ish' you mean a first gen Impreza??

I almost want to say it's too bad he didn't hit you. Then he'd have his car towed and crushed into cube.

holy bitter much? there are numerous cars in calgary with temp registration for different purposes. No need to get all worked up about it because someone has a "newer" import.

[urban.one]

yeah sure.

call the cops and tell them to get the crusher ready!

JDM Tuners strikes again! They don't seem to care how old there cars are. Just call the number for the mobile crusher, the cops will show up right away. I think the number is somewhere in this thread:

actually.. no...

If its an illegal import, his insurance wont hornet the policy. So whoever he hits is gonna to get absolutely screwed.

sorry if i came out a bit harsh, but i have seem a few legal "newer" imports so i just thought this could be one of them.

btw: how did you find out who imported the car?

sorry thats what i meant. i guess typing > me. regardless... what is the story with this car?

[svenn]

Possible RHD conversion maybe? There really is people who think that making a LHD an RHD is a good idea. To be even madder and tyter. Let alone JDM...er?

No. only you would think that:banghead:


the car is most likely completely legal due to him shipping it here while on a work or school visa. Otherwise I don't see it being legally registered and insured.

hear,. hear...:clap:

That's mad tyte. :rofl:

[redbaron303]

Yes, next time I'll risk being hit by a guy whose car will lack insurance if it comes to surface that it's been illegally imported and is not a RHD conversion. This is like the last gen Imprezza with rounder headlights, not the GC8 models from teh early/mid 90's.

I don't have a problem with the guy driving an imported car, having had so many in years past I'm an advocate for imported cars for the most part.

What im not an advocate for is nearly being backed into by this person which ultimately could have a void insurance policy who might not have been able to cut a cheque (that isn't going to bounce) to fix the damage he's caused me. So the bitterness isn't the car (it was nice to see it even if it is illegal) it's the things that can result from nearly being hit... especially at like 8am when I'm not a morning person and i'm already in a pissy mood!

I love posting photos btw, but it would make my rant about relatively unsafe driving hypocritical for me to be snapping photos with my cell phone as I drive around this person... so photos will come if I see the car again adn I'm not driving... his insurance agent is the office at the base of my building!
