Hi everybody, this is 2nd Impreza in me, was purchased in my collegue from another forum. When the car come with some broken parts, I decided to make a coupe version. Then I took a sliding scale, and measure where to cut. On the right side I cut with a knife until I left the roof dremell cut. Basically everything is glued, it should be to putty every cut. Inside I must to make a new roll-cage, new ones will be of copper wire. Here is the pics, c & c welcomes, sorry for my english...

Looks interesting but I think it will look better if you make the door longer. The current configuration makes the car looks too short. Just my suggestions.

I look forward to see this car being done.

Is that what bro means like the 2 doors BMW 330Ci and 4 doors 328i of the e46 model? Car dimension is almost same is just that 330ci front door is longer and without back passengers door...

Correct. The door should be a bit longer and the rear pushed maybe about 3mm back from the current position.
