what the hell happened??????

[viper plus vette]

subaru really screwed things up!!! look at the new wrx sti. what happened to the street racing god that we all knew???? the high wing rally readdy car is dead to me. along with the new mitsubishi evo. R.I.P.

[Car Freak]

The new WRX STi doesn't look that bad... And the new Evo rocks! I can understand why you don't like the Scooby, what with its "Euro-isation", but why don't you like the Evo X?

[DriftNismo]

I only like the 2006 Scooby WRX STi and the Scooby RB5, and i especially hate the new Scooby. I've always been an Evo fan anyway, what have Scooby ever made that could match an Evo IX FQ-400? Nothing. I like the new Evo X too, they both just look different though, but i like both their looks. The Evo VI TME is the best looking though by far.

[Eudemon]

Drift you may wish to check the Type 25, it's not made by Subaru but neither really is the FQ as it's UK only.

[Andreas¹]

New WRX-Sti looks awful :(

[DriftNismo]

I know about the Type-25 but it still doesn't match up to the FQ-400. GTR is still king of the jungle though :D.

[viper plus vette]

i wasnt rip the evo. the evo rocks but the wrx just looks sad. a former shadow of its self

[CptDarknuggets]

I think choosing a evo over a scooby was like picking between red apples and green apples. Now the evo is in a class of its own.

[eleKtro]

Wtf have they done?

[viper plus vette]

i dont know whats wrong with subaru. they had a real thing ghoing. 4-wd 200+ hp? idk whats going through there heads.

[AdamFraser]

Wait until you see one before you make you're mind up. It looks so much better in the flesh.

[CarMadMike]

The basic version looks a bit rubbish up close, doesnt look as bad as the pics though!

 

In bright blue with all the decals on the rally version should make it look pretty decent, not as good as the evo IMO, but alot better then everyone is saying it is

 

Remember the last model, that got a slaughtering when it was uncovered also, but it definatley grew on me!

 

the one thing that im going to miss though is earth shaking exhaust!

[AdamFraser]

Only reason it has lost it's rumble is active exhausts and equal length headers.

 

WRC car is going to be very nice, from what i've seen anyway.

[DriftNismo]

Cpt, are you saying the Scooby and the Evo used to be basically the same?

[Car Freak]

Almost... The STi and base Evo at least (well, maybe not all those FQ versions you guys get in UK)

 

The new STi's looks are growing on me really fast. The base 1.5 models look really crap though, especially with the chrome strip linking the lights. Just draws extra attention it can't handle. The STi's body coloured strip helps address that, but the rear light lenses really need a different colour, red or smoked, doesn't matter too much

[DriftNismo]

Yeah, the new WRX STi's looks are growing on me too, but i'd still pick the older ones over it anyday:

New Subaru Impreza WRX STi

2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi RB320

or Subaru Impreza RB5?

 

I'd definetly choose the RB320 and the RB5 over the new STi anyday.

[-Lr-SpeedraceR]

Dont speak about that...... I dont know what Subaru designer smoked before making new Subaru...lol

 

The car itself is nice, I saw one few weeks ago, but not for a Subaru Impreza :/

[AdamFraser]

How strange. An RB5 with a P1 wing, P1 scoop, (I think)P1 skirts, and a P1 front end!

[DriftNismo]

Some RB5s were plain and some came with the P1 wing, scoop, skirts and front end. I prefer those ones though.

[AdamFraser]

Pretty sure it's not a standard option though, and has to be added to the car by the owner. Never seen an RB5 like it before.

[The Queen]

Mhm... That is interesting. The RB5 I mean ;)

[AdamFraser]

Look like a P1, would be identical to this if it wasnt for the colour (One we are currently selling at the moment).

 

It is an RB5 though that you have posted, no question about it.

[DriftNismo]

Yeah, I know but I'm pretty sure it was an option because I seem to remember seeing one identical to the one I posted on the brochure. I could be mistaken though.

[AdamFraser]

I'll look into it, i'm a member of RB5OC :)

[DriftNismo]

Lol, do you have an RB5 or have you just signed up? I thought of signing up to RSOC, GTROC and Skyline Owners Club but i haven't because i don't actually have an RS, a GTR or any Skyline for that matter. Although i am a member of DriftWorks...
