Default Anybody recognize this 04' STi?

Not sure if this is the correct area to post this in so please move if need be.

I've found this 04' Subaru STi for sale online. It's located in Savannah, GA and I'm curious to know if anyone's seen it before and/or has any kind of information out of the normal about it. All I can tell by the pictures is it has an aftermarket radio, front mount intercooler, some red hoses, an exhaust system, aftermarket wheels, and 2 perrin spoiler brace things. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

It also has a JDM red hazard button. Woooo!
And 06/07 tails. It's a little hard to tell from the pictures, but it doesn't seem to be taken care of that well

Those are 07 Tails.
The bumper looks to be blackened probably due to a catless downpipe.
Those wheels are terrible.
It is missing the front aero package on the bumper corners.
That intake is crap.
Captain Crunch is present in the back seat.
It is hard to tell but I am not seeing the factory Brembos.

Tyler, please, don't buy that thing. The 05+ is a better car all around.

The main diff is the bearing/hub size. Everything else is the same at most

Yeah... I could tell all of the above already, I just didn't type it all.

I might be able to "steal" this car though. Possibly make a profit on it who knows.

Kyle hit the nail on the head. Also, what's the price that make it a steal...?

Edit: May also be worth calling some shops in the Atlanta area (TopSpeed, Forged, Allpro) and seeing if any of them have touched the car. They may have records or maybe even remember the owner. Most importantly, find out the tune on it, if it exists at all.

Run and Drive verification. Yeah I'll be contacting those shops tomorrow, good idea on that. HOPEFULLY someone will have records on it.

Get some higher res pictures if it all possible. Figured it was some kind of auction site with the keys zip tied to the column.

^ And some wheel/tire shots, so we can see the brakes, tread, tread condition. And better engine bay shots, particularly of the downpipe area.

If you bite, expect to have to replace crap in the first year. Assume it'll be expensive crap. No telling why it's at an auction.

Auction was my thought, as well.

I doubt Tyler is buying for a DD but a parts/donor car.

Are they in the military? Do they want you to wire transfer the money and they'll ship it to you for free?

If everything checks out I might drive it for a month or two. Sell it hopefully make a profit.

I'm investigating a lot more tomorrow. Wish me luck...

Ah ok. Are you gonna part it out? If it moves, the tranny swap alone is worth more than what you'd be paying.
