Looks like he picked the wrong model when he created the ad ie picked a 22B which carsales has automatically listed as a 2.2litre. He then must have added an extra zero to the price and not the kilometers. Looks like he was just careless. Which could be related to crackpipes etc

I think the price and km's should switch places. Far more likel'y it's going for $13,500 with 155,000kms on the clock.

I thought that as well, until I considered that he has further qualified the odo reading by stating the calculated miles equivalent . Just the combination of all these "mistakes" and the blatant claim of being a 22B begs the question.

In any event, how do you source a 2.2L STi motor of 22B spec? Not like it was an option in the day, and it wouldn't make it a 22B even if it had the genuine article under the hood. Stroked maybe? Could be wrong, but I also don't think that Carpoint would automatically "tag" it as a 22B based on stated motor capacity alone.
