Red 98's

Okay, I saw a red 98 Impreza on the mountain today, making that three RS's up there with ski racks:) I've never seen a red RS before (not the Sedona reds mind you) I thought the green 98's were rare but I've seen a handful of those, this RS had a RS wing on it with the RS sticker and badging. How many of these are there?

Not many!

And I really wish I had one! It's call Rio Red. There was a somewhat limited number of GT's in that color as well.
I think I might paint my car that color. I think it would look awesome! The color was really cool and I just couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. I had to walk around it a couple of times and drive by it on the way out.:sunny:

I would assume it had it's original gold wheels as well? That's what it came with anyway. Looks too damn cool! :D
Yep, it had the gold rims and everything. The only thing I didn't like about it was the line that ran from front to back, it's a sticker or something.

Ah......the famous subaru pinstripe!:) I have heard that you can only get them off by buffing them off or something.

I don't know how you get them off, but i think only 98's have them. I've seen a black, red and green 98 with them on, don't think the rally blues had them though.

can't believe that after 1.5 years, you still remember the post you made. :lol: well, looks like that RS is for sale. what can i say except...get it!
yeah, i always liked the red. i've only ever seen one. green is still my favorite though :drool: only seen one of those too :)
i can't figure out why anyone would put pinstripes on a sporty car?! it's like putting on chrome trim!
i've only seen 2 reds in the brilliant red color. I'm pretty sure that's what Subaru called the color.
you are correct... brilliant red...:D
so did you buy it? nice color... not a big fan of red, but the RS pulls it off... i have never seen a green one, but i like green, so im guessing if the RS looks good in red... it looks AWESOME in green... i like my blue even though its everywhere...
and yes... the pin stripe looks dumb... if you did buy it/going to buy it... be sure to take that off.. BTW: what are those black things under the tail lights?
Here's my friends car that lives in Charlotte. We're lucky enough to have him in our car club :)
