I saw a impreza 2.5 ts driving down crowchild last night.

Something about it just wasn't right, the front fascia looked alot like a WRX. the headlights looked WRX.

Has anyone seen this before? It seemed to fast to be a 2.5 but someone wen't through alot of work to make it appear so.

Sorry bout no pics, kind of caught me off-guard.

but why would you replace the hood, add badges, use lower class rims.

That is a bit of work, for something that isn't neccasary

i didnt say anything about jdm headlights :)

i meant when like when a 04 TS or 04 RS owner drives around with an 04 sti headlight










(they all use the same light, it was a joke, mocking ;))

i dont think theres anything wrong with putting better parts on a car, heh

haha, no dude....

the original poster said he saw a WRX with TS headlights, when they both actually have the same headlight from the factory...i was just being sarcastic making a reference to that

There is a Silver STi running around town with a TS trunk. How do I know? There is a TS with an STi trunk at Centaur. Aparently the deal only went through if the dealer swapped the trunks.

That could be your street encounter.

i hate the STi trunk/spoiler... and i really cant stand the gold trim and rims.

Would be cool to have a de-badged STi
