The Subaru Impreza STi tS Type RA Nürburgring Challenge Pack (NBR) was released to commemorate Subaru winning the 24hr Nürburgring Challenge Race.

An exceptionally rare JDM hero! Out of the 300 produced, only 200 were built in the Type RA spec and only 100 were in the Type RA NBR spec, like the stunning example we have here…

Rarer still, this example is 1 of the 69 finished in Tangerine Orange (G2U). The others consist of 84 Satin White Pearl (34J) cars and 47 in WR Blue Mica (02C).

Power comes from Subaru’s infamous EJ20, producing 320BHP/316 ft torque making it good for 0-60 in around 4.5 secs and topping out at 155 mph.

It’s a model any Subaru fanatic would kill for! Arguably one of the most special incarnations of the legendary Impreza.

On the road it’s a ballistic missile, taking real world conditions in its stride. The power delivery, the noise, the grip all make for an unforgettable driving experience… You certainly wouldn't miss it bombing down a stretch of tarmac!

We sourced this example in Japan, a Grade 4.5B car at auction, it has covered a mere 23,187km (14,408 miles). We see this as a model worthy of any serious car collection and a vehicle that will likely appreciate in value in the years to come.
