Before I give up the performance car game for a few years, I have to get something out the way!
I've always secretly liked them, and I'm in talks of swapping my gtir for one.

This is what I'm talking about.

Its modified, its a 1992 wrx with a 1997 sti engine.

Its more practical than the gtir at the moment as I'm using the R for a daily family car, and it just isn't big enough!

I will keep you all informed lol

I like Subaru's, I really do. The only thing that puts me off them is that there's just so many of them about. But they are nice cars.

If I was getting one it would have to be a P1 methinks, but that defeats the purpose of you getting one as it only has 2 doors :lol:

Don't worry Stu, we won't castrate you for it! :lol:

your not on your own stu.. i also realy like them.. 4 doors would help you out.. but keep in mind.. if you do swap.. you will have to pay out more to get yourself another Gti-r due to the price increasing on them..

That looked sweet Gerald ;)

Yeah Des, the p1 is sweet! But as you say, I nead 4 doors lol

I know Jon, it pains me to jump ship while the gtir is rising in price. I will always want another one, and it might be that when I do decide to have another one, they will be to expensive for me :(

A gtir would always have to be a toy tho. A scooby or evo could work for me as an every day family car.

At the end of the day you have a family to think about Stu so your priorities are bang on,I have always liked the Subaru and even on the old xbox games I always opted for either the Subaru or the evolution it was just by chance that I bought my R,to be honest Stu at least you are staying with JDM so a big thumbs up from me mate!

Good cars stu but just have to be clever they are not the best built cars in the world. Engines are a dangerous. Sound great nice specs on them. Not sure myself so used to all the ones I ever see are abused and run into the ground. But would be a great middle ground.
Oh what are you all lookin at is it the smile on my face or the fact iv just used 20 quid in fuel just to go to the shops! Again!

I don't want to buy one Rich, not unless I sell the R first.
Mine is up for £3.5k and I don't fancy doing a swap on a scooby that's tatty and been standing for a year.

If this swap dosnt happen, I will stick to my plan of sorting my rear arches out and respraying the whole car.
It will then sit in my dads garage until prices rise and there's a lift in people buying strong again and it will be out with a fresh mot and tax at a higher price ;)

Thanks for the heads up mate.
