Re: FT: WRX swapped Impreza 2.5 RS coupe for S2000
If i had to put a price on it i'd have to say $9000. Its tough putting a price on a swapped car, but most swapped Imprezas go for around $9000 or more. They're usually only bought by people who know a lot about the history of the model. STI swapped imprezas go for $12000 or more.
$9000 isnt enough to buy a S2000 though, but for what the car can do it's worth it.
P.S.- Im not expecting anyone to swap me their super clean S2000. Im really just expecting an AP1 with around 130,000miles but not ragged out. A perfect swap for me would be a yellow one
but im not picky.
I guess if i sold it i could just save up for one, but i prefere a trade.

bump for you. I've always liked these and for the same reason that it's a coupe. I think your asking price is more than fair, I've seen stock 2.5 go for that much. almost makes me want to sell my hatch and buy this. gl on your trade

Re: FT: WRX swapped Impreza 2.5 RS coupe for S2000
I bought the car with a parts bin. The AC was in the bin along with other stuff....because Race Car!!!! I installed the AC and the cover has a very ugly paint coat, so until I strip it and recoat it I'll just keep it off. I have the cover though. I just never bothered me enough to put it back on.
