I've seen that for sale before and it's so overpriced it's ridiculous. Why do that to a UK300 God knows why you would put a later front end onto a UK300 because you have instantly devalued it before fitting the gash bodykit

I mean I could've picked an even more wank chav bus Subaru than that but this is a fucking UK300 version which in my eyes makes it worse!

Can't really comment on chav Subarus as mine has lexarse lights on it! I bought it for the 300bhp though not it's looks. The one in question here is very Fast and Furious style though, really dont understand the thought process involved in building it...

When it comes to styling, the Ford scene has always been conservative compared to other scenes (well apart from the early to mid 90s, but the least said about that the better!) As a result the more extreme modified cars always seem alien to Ford lovers - but to the majority of Jap fans a Chargespeed (I think) kitted Scooby is cool. It's not to my tastes, but I can see why he'd fit a later front end and big arches, but as it stands it just looks too much.

But each to their own!

The UK300 (it's NOT an STi!) is a special edition model and they come out looking fine from the factory and also the STi variants too but that one has just been ruined I can understand why the cheaper classic shaped Subarus get chavved up loads because of their cheapness but a blobeye UK300 model... Equivalent of taking a Ford Focus ST225 and fitting a ridiculous bodykit out of Max Power.

You say that but to me, it looks no more over the top than the new Focus RS does. That has loads of plastic shite all over it. It's not exactly understated is it.

That Subaru isn't to my tastes but to the avarage person on the street it is no more or less chavvy and OTT than the new FRS is.

give me the looks of the RS over that impreza...and i use the word impreza loosely.

but tbh all our cars look pretty chav'd up to the average person who has no interest in cars.

guess its each to there own.
