This Is What A Subaru Impreza With $250,000 Of Modifications Looks Like
Never has the saying ‘you can sleep in a car, but you can’t race a house’ been more apt. This 2002 Subaru Impreza ‘Bugeye’ has had roughly $250,000 invested in it. Many people would buy a house with that kind of cash, but Alex Witkin spent that figure modifying one of his cars almost beyond recognition.
Almost every part of the car has been changed or upgraded. The engine has been built completely from scratch, and the engine bay has had a lot of work done to achieve the end result. It has a custom-fabricated 10-point roll cage, the interior has been completely overhauled and it’s even been converted to a right-hand-drive car. As the car is in America and was LHD originally, we don’t really understand that change.
As you can see from the video, the car is completely road legal, but mostly used as a show car and to promote his business.
Is it a waste of money, or well spent?

It would be 250,000 dollars well spent if;
1.it has expensive quad turbos
2.carbon fibre body and
chassis
3.really complicated suspension
Looks more like an EVO
‘Don’t do it Jesse. I bet he’s got more than 100 grand under the hood of that car.’
If it drums up 250k worth of business then money well spent! It’s absolutely gorgeous! Pity about the rhd conversion but it must be a thing putting the wheel on the wrong side of the car.
When you spend 250k for the modifications on your car, in order to defeat a 120k Supercar, and all you do is make your car less reliable
jokes aside it’s a nice car, but I prefer budget build’s and DIY, than spending tons of money on your car
It’s a bug eye guys. Not a blob eye.
Way too much for the build imo
If it was a 75-100k build, then great
But 250k .. too pricey.
Its a moot question. The man can clearly afford it. He probably really enjoyed creating this!
Sooo… no specs?
It’s a bugeye.
