22b?
Hello, I was on a walk when I randomly came across this “22b”. Although I’m 90% sure its a 22b i found that it doesn’t have the 22b symbol with the number it is on the center console (image added of what i mean). So although it looks wider, has the badge and has STI interior bits i just wanted to make sure. Thank you!

I‘d say its a Impreza GC8 Type-R made to look like a 22b. The steering wheel is not the original one that a 22b would have either. And the missing number plaque pretty much tells it anyways.

There is one for sale in Indiana right now. https://www.grahamrahalperformance.com/Pre-owned-Inventory-1998-Subaru-Car-Impreza-22B-STi-grahamrahalperformance-16425670
Given the dealership, this one is real.

Looks like an Impreza WRX Type R STI V-Limited. Not a 22B, but that's still a seriously cool model that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to own

22b with number 107 is located in AU and for sale now: https://fuelics.com.au/listings/used-1998-subaru-impreza-22b-sti/
And op is probably just trolling by using same picture of limited number plate from dash.

The last image in the post was just a reference photo of what I ment when I said the 22b symbol in the dash. I wasn’t trying to say this was number 107 by any means.

Well, if you look carefully on your photo of interior - where is no any 22b symbols on the dash. This is good rebuild of GC8 coupe.

The three 22Bs ive seen in person all had Nardi 3 spoke steering wheels with a CF horn button in the center.
