I don't like the enlarged scoops of the STi7s onwards (looks like a "Mad-max" supercharger bulge from in the car) and that causes an aerodynamic whistle at 120mph .

As a package, I love 'em (not that I'm biased ). But would rather have the equivalent Evo, even if the Scooby's offbeat engine note is the best sounding 4-pot in the world, the Evo has the edge chassis wise .

Just the type of biased, arrogant, small minded, gimpy feedback I would expect from a Ford site!!!

Stu,
It's itchy wallet time again (which is better then other parts of your body itching). Just been to look at one for the 2nd time this week at the local dealer...... I must admit they look the nads now with the wider track, hoofing big body kits on them etc etc and the added function of the Driver Controlled Centre Diff...

One day I suppose

lol @ Richm

Scoobies maybe common (I seem to remember the same for another Marque ) but for a car they are awesome bits of kit out of the box...... so much I feel the force from the dark side pulling me in.
