EXTERIOR: The GD body "Hawkeye" STI is the most sought after STI on the market. Finished in obsidian black pearl, this glossy paint has some nice metallic pearls in it. Overall, the car is in excellent condition. There are some small blemishes like a few random stone chips on the hood, a small crack, and some light scratches on the driver fender. The rear bumper has a small paint scratch. Even with those small imperfections this car shines up like it did new! The STI model includes HID leveling headlights, dual plane rear spoiler, STI aero ground effects, and forged BBS silver wheels. Behind the silver aluminum wheels are nice gold flake painted Brembo performance brakes.
INTERIOR: The interior is near mint! Its iconic blue and black two tone lets others know you're driving the upgraded STI over the base WRX model. The STI seats are in excellent shape front and rear with no wear or tear. The blue carpet is still in excellent shape as well as the blue STI floor mats. The 6 speed shifter was upgraded to a short throw shifter from the factory. The driver controlled center differential switch is located next to the shifter allowing you to change your ratio on the go! There are carbon fiber overlays on all of the trim adding to the spiciness of the interior! Also included are some nice fitting weathertech all season floor mats.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This engine compartment is spotless! Everything is in excellent shape, no dirt or grime like you would normally see in these. Under the hood you'll find the turbocharged 2.5L 4 cylinder engine pushing 300 HP and 300 lb ft of torque! Being in such a light car with the all wheel drive system, the power makes it feel like a rocket. This car is 100% stock including the stock exhaust! It's rare to find them in this condition.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Pop the trunk and the carpet looks nice and new; the hidden compartment on the right has the jack and tools that have never been used. On the right hand side is the intercooler sprayer container. You can fill it with distilled water and spray it on the intercooler to keep the temps cool in the engine bay on a hot day of driving! Under the mat is the original spare tire.
UNDERSIDE: Underneath is in excellent shape, the STI model comes with beefier STI inverted shocks and springs, adjustable lateral and control arms in the rear. There's still factory stickers and markings in place. There's also the OEM downpipe, and cat back exhaust.
A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. To the best of my knowledge.
