    Evo 2 is Mitsubishi dude, subaru did versions, so you've got a version 2. Which again is wrong, if that's a 1998 scooby, more like a version 4 😂

    • @wrxcult8266
      @wrxcult8266 22 дні тому

      This is not to embarrass you, I just want to help your knowledge. Subaru Australia released models called Club Spec Evo 2, 3, 4 etc. So this one is called Subaru Impreza WRX Club Spec Evo 2 Version 4 GC8, for 1998. Yes, Mitsubishi also has models called Evo.

    Very fine example of a 22b . Looks awesome. Up there with the best in the country. Only know of one other in Sydney that would be better.

  • @Gregsheppo66
    @Gregsheppo66 Місяць тому

    Love the level of work done to the 22B. It’s literally pristine. Here in Sydney a GTR owner imported a 22B from Japan. Roumanos Moussa (RHM34) is the bloke. I only caught a short glimpse of it in one of his videos which was mainly about a GTR he’d also imported. I’m looking forward to seeing more of that 22B’s restoration probably later next as those guys are gonna be busy with GTR Festival USA next month. 👍

    Given the low purchase price, the car seems to be in great condition, no rust underneath, and even throwing $60K-$70K to bring it back to original still makes this a good buy IMO.

    • @wrxcult8266
