PistonHeads profile the iconic Subaru Impreza 22B STI

Dan Trent for PistonHeads takes a nostalgic look back at one very special Subaru Impreza.

The JDM production run of 400 apparently sold out in 24 hours nonetheless, 16 additional cars being built for the UK market, another five for Australia and three ‘#000’ prototypes originally owned by Colin McRae, Nicky Grist and Prodrive’s David Lapworth.

In a TV interview McRae described it as one of his favourite cars, while admitting “it gets you into bother” by virtue of its character. Mind boggles at what qualifies as ‘bother’ to a man of McRae’s talents and given what he did for the brand you’d have thought Subaru would have been happy to gift him one. But, no, he had to pay for it. “I got a good price but that really hurt, being Scottish!” he said at the time.
