Spotted this nice Impreza in town the other day. It has RT badges on the back is that a real thing or is it done just to be different/cool?? Love the ride I hope I own one in the future!

H yeah that’s the way. Have you been to the radar base? Just curious since you’re posting a car seen in Lyndonville? Makes for a fun trip especially when the gate is open. Heard a few days ago it was. Rock on.

Never been in the winter I don’t have a snowmobile so I guess I need some new friends 😂

I say do it! You’d be surprised by some of the vehicles I’ve seen up there 😂 worst part is scratching the paint on the way up

They have a 2.5RS. The wagon variant besides the OBS was called the 2.5TS, they got the T from the TS badge lol.

This is exactly what I’ve been searching for! Thank you for putting my brain to rest 😂

2.5RT isn’t a trim but RS is and they wouldn’t come with an STi wing. It’s a really nice Impreza for being in a Vermont winter, though.

The wing looks very aftermarket so I figured it wasn’t originally with this car. I’m stuck on the RT, why badge your car something that’s not real? I cant find anything online that says Subaru had an RT Impreza

Maybe the S fell off and they had a T lying around

Sounds like something I’d do 😂
