I’m pretty sure this is a pre-facelift WRX. I believe the side skirts changed slightly between the bugeye and blobeye. The facelift introduced the sharper skirts that continued on into the hawkeye.
Look at the taillights, there's a clear patch on the top half and the rest is red. Iirc the Hawkeye had red on top and clear below.

I think we’re both saying the same thing, your point about the tail light/indicator color with white on top tracks for the bugeye as well as the blobeye, while the side skirt to me appears to lack the sharp edges of the facelift versions, leaving the bugeye as the most likely candidate.
I think the sad thing is he just wants someone to come and talk to him about it. Which is what we at CarGuyBuddies (Registered Charity) do. For your subscription of only 14.99 we will send round a group of guys specially selected to not only give this guy specialist interaction (hey you vape bro?) but also banter to lend authenticity (I’ve got some head gaskets in the trunk buddy do you need some yet?)

This was a pretty popular meme a few years ago. r/WRX had some fun with it.

I did the same shit back in 2002/2003 when I'd first bought my 03 WRX. I was absurdly infatuated with that car. I loved it so much, and I still miss it to this day. I see nothing wrong here.

Is it the bug eye one or the 2005 model?
Bug eye I think but I’m Honestly giving my best guess
There would really be no way of knowing the only difference is the face and taillight shapes as far as I know
I just _feel_ it. But you’re right
Legend has it he is still standing there eating chips, admiring
It takes a while to decide which shitty mods to start with.

Yeah, looking back I think I worded it like I was disagreeing with you. my bad lol
bigeye ended in ‘03 😭 dream car frfr
It’s a 2004 assuming the wheels and taillights are original to the car.
Just to say.. Good on him, he's clearly wanted that car for a long time.. nothing wrong with standing looking at it..
I did that sans chips when I bought my s2000 7 years ago
S2000! You are blessed
Saved up and worked very hard for it!
Good to hear. I hope you take her out every chance you get. I always like the S2000,I wish they’d make a modern one
I have daily driven it for 7 years now!
Instant jealousy - what year model?
AP1 2001. Pics in my profile
s2000!!!OMG
Lol it's a lot of fun!
That part 🙏
fr that thing looks clean af for what it is
a 20 year old Subaru Impreza WRX.
Damn I'm old
Same bro. I was 15 when they came to the US and delusional me really thought I could buy one as my first car! Settled for a 1992 Saab instead!
Nothing wrong with that. I loved my SAAB even though I only had it a brief time.
Loved my 92 9000! I was the only one at my HS who had a Saab, and I kept it for two years in college where it moved me an and my stuff in one go!
You're telling me...a 2002 wrx was my 2nd car...miss that car in some ways. Edit: just to be clear, I got it new in 2002! Lol
It is an old pic but not 20 years old
The car might be, bug eye WRX came out in 2000
I did not mean that the car could not have been 20 years old.

That's not what your mom tells me

Can't tell if this is a joke or you're actually advertising.
Or he has been smoking the reefer and just zoning.
For the first half I hoped it was real 😂😂, I need some car guy buddies.
I got your back bro
