Description

A rare opportunity to own a meticulously kept Subaru Type RA with only 103, 842 km (64, 524 miles) and one previous owner. Cherished private plate T555 BOB will be removed upon sale and returned to the original registration number KXZ 8050. This limited-edition model, #0258 of just 2000 four-door examples, was produced during a short run between Nov 1999 and Aug 2000 and has been lovingly dry-stored in a private JDM collection.

Note: A previous repair was done on the passenger side, but moisture has seeped into the filler. The affected area spans the second-row door, part of the front passenger door, and the lip of the rear arch.

Designed as a fully-fledged performance model, the Type RA features weight-saving measures and exclusive performance enhancements for an authentic, raw driving experience. With various factory tuning upgrades, this is a collector’s gem built to stand out.
