Firstly anyone that says an Impreza is a piece of shit, clearly has no brain or is as thick as pig shit! (not that anyone is thick enough to actually say that of course) So asking the question he has on this forum, I dont see a problem with tbh.

Just to pick up on a few points:

Scoobys are not overly expensive to either mod or repair nowadays.

"shit from 3rd gear upwards" Really???? You best get along side mine in 3rd gear then!

"Wouldn't say it handles well" Personal opinion I suspect, but what are you comparing it with as my current setup outhandles ANY car I have ever owned (and that includes 3 cossies).

"buy a cosworth, hold the price as well, scooby's don't." Is this the only argument you boys have left now then! IMHO if you cant afford to write the cost off of these types of performance cars in the first place, you shouldnt even buy one in the first place.

Cossies are awesome cars and I love em.... but for the benefit of the originator of this thread, you have to sift through the shit first!
