Imprezas are getting cheap

On way Vauxman

That's because they are sh1t. lol

No, that's unfair, but they are a bit too common for my liking. If you want a car of that type I'd say an Evo is always a better option.

^ Yeah, Evo all the way for me too. They hold their money better though, even the Proton based 1-3 lol

The Evos are by all means the more superior car but Scoobs are cheap Power which is the only thing thats attracting me to them. I was nearly killed in one before so I never likes them but for the money, I'd have one. Also, the sound is lovely.

Theres an awesome old Legacy around here with the B4? engine, quad cam TT job, the burble from it is epic. Never heard it being abused but as said you gotta love that boxer sound :)

The Phase1 cars are **** though.. Wouldnt waste my money.

I've got a soft spot for Impreza's though and I wouldnt mind getting another one.. Problem is most of them are either way over priced or ragged to hell and back and pattern part prices are ridiculous mainly because the basic engine and chassis has remained the same until recently so there is still a 'new car premium' on all of the parts due to them being the same accross the different model years.

For example, you go and buy some track rod ends for a 1992 cavalier they are peanuts.. But you want track rod ends for a 1992 Impreza you'll be paying the same price as the guy who wants them for his 2005 impreza.

Depends what floats your boat.. The Scooby is more of a drivers car.

Its actually the ridiculously un-equal length manifold on the turbo models that gives the burble.. the N/A ones just sound like VW Campervans.

evos love spinnin big ends, all of them do and when you go to rebuild them it has to be done professionally to get all the measurements because there are 5 sizes of big end bearings and chassis number wont show the right ones
