Thumbs up GM/GC RHD Impreza WRX in Oakland?

On Sunday afternoon I spotted a silver RHD Impreza WRX coming off of the Eastbound 580 exit at Grand Ave. Anyone know anything about this car? It looked pretty understated and most people probably wouldn't even notice. Anyone...Anyone???

Is it gold colored or something? There's one that's been showing up at car shows.

Silver 4-door RHD IIRC. Wheels looked stock. And affirmative on the old school WRX sticker on the lower right corner of the trunklid.

i left a note on the car with my screen name and info and havent gotten a reply in a few months so i dont know if the owner is on here.

not to mention they didnt even park in the back of the lot, they parked in prime door ding territory near the front...not a suby lover in my book

Hmm...happen to know if the driver was Caucasian? If so, that MIGHT be this business person that's in our area. Doesn't look like an enthusiast, more like an average driver.
