Never Thought I’d Do This: Selling My Prized 07 Subaru Impreza WRX STI

It’s with a heavy heart that I write this article. My 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI has always been my dream car. Ever since it debuted in 2007, I’ve longed for it, and after purchasing it in May 2021, I dedicated countless hours and resources to make it as close to perfect as possible. However, as much as it pains me to say this, I find myself in a position where I must part ways with it.

A Labor of Love

Over the last two years, I have poured my heart into this vehicle, focusing on restoring and upgrading nearly every component. From the engine to the interior, I ensured that it’s in pristine condition. Here’s a glimpse of the extensive work that has been accomplished:

Professional Care

All mechanical work was expertly handled by Eric at HBL Autosports, one of the leading Subaru-specialized shops in the Greater Vancouver Area (GVA). I’ve meticulously kept all receipts and records, even maintaining a detailed spreadsheet that catalogs over 120 new parts and services I’ve invested in. This level of documentation reflects my commitment to maintaining this vehicle’s integrity and performance.

The True Essence of a Driver’s Car

This 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI is more than just a car; it’s a visceral driving experience. Fast, raw, and analog, it’s designed for those who crave the thrill of the road. Despite my love for this vehicle, I now have to face the reality that I cannot devote the time necessary to enjoy it to its fullest potential. While I’m not in a rush to sell, I’m committed to finding someone who will appreciate it as much as I have.
