Does anyone know this car.
 
Just chasing some info for a mate, does anyone know who owned a 2005 WR blue WRX. The plate on it at the moment is 1DON 789.

Apparently it has been built and serviced by Maximums and has around 400hp.

My mate is looking at buying it and the info he is getting is a little vague, they don't have any info on what has been done to it.

They are asking $29,000 sounds a little high, its on carsales at the moment if anyone has any info could they please let me know.

Cheers Luke

P.S. sorry if this is in the wrong section not sure where to put it.

There you go matt

HaiiSon 20-03-2011 08:00 PM

honestly with that kind of money i would buy an sti, unless mms can verify their work on the car

Munsie 20-03-2011 08:01 PM

Looks pretty stock to be making 400

thommo 20-03-2011 08:03 PM

My thoughts too.....but an STI.

Tried the maximum idea, apparently you need the last name of previous owner so they can get the info.

HaiiSon 20-03-2011 08:03 PM

Just go check the car out tomorrow at LynFord and ask for all receipts

With a standard tmic:rolleyes:

red dragon2002 20-03-2011 08:29 PM

expensive for what is listed, i would be much happier with an sti even if it was stock

monkeee 20-03-2011 08:29 PM

[QUOTE=Terry.Wrist;547018]With a standard tmic:rolleyes:[/QUOTE]

and std 5spd...what a car :D

warning bells should be a ringing

HaiiSon 20-03-2011 08:33 PM

LynFord dealers are smoking to much crack in their spair time.

thommo 20-03-2011 08:54 PM

Not sure if they even know, may have to ring and try to get them to email them as we work away.

Kato 20-03-2011 08:55 PM

Factory car with body kit + rims + cold air intake.

Nothing special.

thommo 20-03-2011 08:59 PM

With that much power wouldn't you want forged internals also....that was what I was thinking. Correct me if im wrong.

Luigi 20-03-2011 09:03 PM

I would want to see a legit Dyno print out to see its so called 400HP.

I would seriously doubt it would even have 300HP at the Fly Wheel let alone 400HP at the wheels.

phizzle 20-03-2011 09:04 PM

Steve Thomas tune issit?

Insome 20-03-2011 09:05 PM

LOL and tj thought ppl wanted crackpipe prices for gc8's with not much done to them.

ULTREX 20-03-2011 09:11 PM

Jeez----for that much $$ tell your mate he can have mine :D

Much fancier and newer and more CF powa!

Damo69 20-03-2011 09:12 PM

Be cautious of lynford

RXqME 20-03-2011 09:13 PM

ROFL... he is dreaming.... if your mate wants a cheap sti tell him to look at interstate... this MY04 STI is going for 22k!!
[url]http://www.rexnet.com.au/forum/index.php?/topic/133576-my-04-sti-for-sale/[/url]

Much better than an MY05 WRX with an Exhaust!! WOW! Tell him his dreaming!!

apg39 20-03-2011 09:53 PM

Plates sound like they have been recently issued.

g4c14 20-03-2011 11:54 PM

Call up the dealer, dealer should have all the reports and reciepts if its legit.. If the dealer doesnt, its pritty much worthless/not worth it.

kid 21-03-2011 09:27 AM

Dude it's in Challenger Ford...Rockingham....but agreed...way too expensive....

Master D 21-03-2011 11:30 AM

way to expensive & i highly doubt 400hp....

offer the dealer 20 :D

monkeee 21-03-2011 11:39 AM

Probably moved it on, I remember seeing this car at Lynford a while back (mid last year) when I went to test drive a blue 06 STI which had been tuned by mms...which was also labelled as having new tyres (which meant 3 used re070's and 1 new bob jane xenon :rolleyes:)

johnvk7 21-03-2011 11:50 AM

400 donkey's, sick donkey's with a bung leg

HaiiSon 21-03-2011 11:56 AM

Ahhh ok....

When i was looking for a car...i remember checking out a couple of cars that i happened to see whilst at the dealerships doing work....

Speaking to the sales guys you hear all sorts of funny stuff...like "it's even got the blow off for increased power" etc etc....

Gets slightly annoying when you call to ask if that 05 sti in the lot with tbe has been tuned and they have no idea....argh dealerships....

karina2009 21-03-2011 12:56 PM

this is even better value

mitchwnz 21-03-2011 01:59 PM

Over 400 Grams of crack for his pipe....

Bigboosst 21-03-2011 02:04 PM

1k/Per gram - 400/1k = 400k. I wish i had that kinda money making scheme... Just offer him a 1kg bag of MsM powder. He won't know till he tokes, WIN WIN!

"Yeah, uhh.. officer, i just signed over my car for a kilo of what i thought was crack.. Umm, what can we do" Hehe..

When he told me about the car this was the first thing I showed him.

I told him the dealership was full of shit for that price.

Hey Mikka welcome to the party.....its still not an STI mate. Haha catch up soon.

REXPECTED 22-03-2011 06:25 PM

i sold mt MY04 wrx with ligid 300hp and receipts to prove it for $23k, and only 90000kms, he can deffinatley find a better deal,

but maybe that body kit gives him extra hp, who knows these days

moet 30-03-2011 02:54 AM

Word of advice for your mate, I bought my beast from Lynford, they were quite shady.. Good outcome in the end but very shifty to deal with. Dbl check and then check again!
