Anyone got a ESX STi?

FujiApples · 07-18-2005, 02:39 AM

Hey guys i was just wondering if any of you have the ESX STi?

If so, how different is it from a real one?

NoItchSTI · 07-18-2005, 05:29 AM

You can by alot more car with that amount. Don't get me wrong, the STI's are hot, but over 45,000? No thanks!

Where my father is now living, he said he saw an ESX version, and found out the the guy lives down the street from him. He said he talked to the guy for a little while and he said he paid 50,000$ for it, and it was the first one delivered. I believe it was Irvine Subaru? Anyways, if I ever get a chance to see it, I'll be sure to take some pictures.

I spoke with this owner while he was picking the car up. He was very excited and traded his 05 STi in to get it. Irvine has delivered one other I believe. they aren't exactly selling like hotcakes.

AZ-GT · 07-18-2005, 03:26 PM

Why should they. Poor value new, no value as a collectible.

FujiApples · 07-19-2005, 02:04 AM

yea.. there are only 40 of them i hear, and yes u can definately get wayy more with the same money, and yea i was like half asleep/stoned when i wrote that so hehe.. i didnt mean REAL.. yeh cuz when i bought my sti the dealer had the esx on display and i checked it out.. the guy said there were only 40 and its all good and blah, so i wanted to see what i woulda got if i got one of those, anyways, thanks for the description izz!

STiastic · 07-19-2005, 07:08 AM

I went to pick up my Sti at the dealer after ordering it and sitting right beside it was a ESX STi with the badge 007. I have to say I quite impressed by it. I had the saleman start it up and the Injen exhaust sounded badass. However, the 55,500 price tag was definately a turn off.

$55.5K i'd def. pick up an m3 and mod it w/ the residuals.

**Paperchasin** · 07-19-2005, 08:54 AM
