Subaru Impreza 22B-STi (NA)

The Subaru Impreza 22B-STi represents an extreme case of scarcity in the collectible market: only five examples were produced for the North American market, making it a genuine Holy Grail automobile by production volume alone. This handful of cars occupies a unique position where traditional market analysis becomes nearly impossible to apply.

With zero recorded sales in the tracked database over the past twelve months and no active listings currently available, liquidity is effectively nonexistent for practical purposes. This absence of transaction data means there is no reliable current median valuation or price trend to establish, making any attempt to quantify market movement purely speculative.

The 22B-STi's classification as an appreciating classic reflects its rarity and historical significance, yet the extremely limited supply and zero recent sales activity suggest these cars rarely enter the open market. When an example does change hands, the transaction likely occurs through direct negotiation between collectors rather than through conventional auction or dealer channels, leaving most movements invisible to standard market tracking.

Prospective buyers should understand that acquiring one of these five cars depends entirely on private sales networks and personal connections within the high-level collector community. The absence of liquidity and pricing data means any purchase would be negotiated on an individual basis with no established benchmark to reference.
