The Appeal

For the uninitiated, navigating Impreza WRX models can be bewildering. Take it from us, this is the one you want. It is a Japanese-market STi with the 'EJ907' 2.0-litre twin scroll turbo 16V engine, which is good for plenty of BHP!. It’s quicker and considerably rarer than the contemporary 2.5L ‘Hawkeye’ WRX STi released by Subaru to the rest of the world.

This smart, low-mileage 2007 car arrived in the UK in, after a life on Japan’s salt-free roads. It runs a very appealing specification including black metallic paintwork, accented with bronze multi-spoke 19-inch alloys. The outside is in very good order. The same is true of the blue and black fabric interior. It benefits from some choice upgrades like a high-end Alpine touchscreen infotainment system, a MOMO three-spoke wheel, carbon trim and a quartet of Defi dials. It benefits from a recent cambelt and water pump change in November 2025 and also replaced the brake discs and pads.

Thanks to the low mileage and bornout from the 4.5 grade the car is in great order throughout. It comes with some Japanese service history and will be sold with a fresh MOT.
