I would definitely buy it. It looks very clean, but I'm just not a fan of the cream interior.

 

Since when do SpecB's get cream leather? I thought that was the luxo (auto) 30R only?

 

 

 

Here I am looking at H6 Spec.B's.. are they as powerful as the turbo ones??

 

Overall power is probably a bit less. It really the torque and the RPM it's delivered at that makes the difference.

 

H6's make reasonable power.

Their best feature is they a butter smooth and rev like crazy.

 

 

Oh, and THAT SOUND!!!!!

+1 on all counts regarding the H6. I've never looked back. When I come to sell mine, I would actually prefer a 2009 3.0R SpecB over an STi/GTB.

Looks OK and a nice colour.

 

Stability control and no SatNav? Double check it has stabilty.

 

Check the 100k service was done too. (nevermind, just read that)

 

Maybe check the T belt was actually done, not just an oil change by the dealer.

I thought SatNav was factory on Spec.B's? He's an old bloke who has owned Suby's all his life. He's coming around now to have a look.

Nope, option AFAIK. Maybe the MY09's had it factory.

Probably just the head gasket.

Do you think it's serious?
It looked like there was dried up coolant all over the engine bay.

Reminded me of my old MY99 Liberty RX lol.

+61.

 

You'd expect someone to clean their cars properly for a sale too.

 

And SatNav isn't factory on all SpecB's.

me and a mate went and looked at that car a couple of weeks ago Nick. It looked very suspect to me. My mate was still keen as the rest was so clean but i told him its not worth the risk and to walk away.

Looks nice.

 

Apart from lacking a couple of cylinders, how does the price compare with others?
