Ex Subaru Rally Team USA Pastrana VSC car for sale at Lachute. No price listed, I'm sure this is a bargain. :D

RE: The SRTUSA car. Lachute says $90k for the car, $125k for the car + spares. 8O I was guessing more in the $50-60k range. Yikes.

Don't get me wrong, it's a very nice build. VERY clean.

But...... 125K?

+1, nice car, but really? 125k
You can get this for probably $130k..something isn't quite right.
Or maybe good rally stuff is that expensive? Or is it a Pastrana thing?

No question that rally gear is expensive, but I admit that seems insane. A lot of the used top notch cars seem to go in the $40-50k range with the occasional minty Vermont Spors Car going for slightly higher. The math doesn't really add up to what I'm seeing there.

That said, Antoine L'Estages car's build is mumbled to be in the $400k range when its all said and done and Higgins' current SRTUSA car can't be that far behind, but they don't publish their specs. :)

I believe the price tag of Jerry Churchill's WRX was in the vicinity of $240K when he arrived at the 2003 Targa event. Steve & I did kick his ass in a $5K CRX 8O

Yeah, but he bought that from Prodrive built to Euro Spec. Though honestly I couldn't tell you what the difference in prep would be at that level. It may have even been a former WRC car, that predates my Targa time.

Jerry always had a lot of money and enthusiasm and money. :)

Prodrive's used cars: http://www.prodrive.com/level4.html?id=227

2004 Impreza WRC, 135k Euro (Ex Solberg car)
2004 Impreza WRC, 175k Euro (Ex Hirvonen, Atkinson car)
2004 Impreza P-WRC car, 24k Euro (Ex Al Atayah car. This is closer to the VSC Build, I expect)

Even worse, the prices on the page are actually in pounds sterling...so...

2004 Impreza WRC 211,265
2004 Impreza WRC 273,862
Last one doesn't matter, probably in the 70k range

Actually after doing that conversion, it doesn't seem that bad considering what I was expecting

Automatic, but $1000 and Brendan shows that Legacies can work.

I am seriously considering this wagon. I need a winter beater. The mismatched tires sound like trouble though. Anyone with a bit more Subaru knowledge care to come and offer a 2nd set of eyes on it?

Not super cheap, but the fuel tank is a big $$ item on older cars. Leather seats! Rallycross/TSD in style!

The obvious choice is the ex-Targa NL 245 Turbo.

Lots of room, good daily driver :) volvo, and it's ready for sprint!

:D

Is that Targa Volvo wagon still for sale? I checked it out at Targa last year and it was really well built. I'd love to have it!

The Blue Bastahrd is sold. It's apparently in Ontario now and the new owner is planning on repair the MegaSquirt system and running it next year at Targa:
http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=225396

I am heading to check out the pair of 244s on Thursday. I'll likely drive the 92 back if I like and head back for the 88 with a truck. Unless someone feels like driving up with me on Thursday with something capable of towing a 2900lb car.

Cheap SG5 (My generation) Manual Forester. I really found mine rallycrossed well with the stock suspension. Tall, lots of travel and well sprung. Lots of practicality, too. Even has a hitch!
