What's the possibility in finding someone who may be interested in owning a real nice WRX-RA and getting rid of their Repsol Blade.
I love the Scoob, but equal to that I love these blades, especially kitted out with an Arrow system.
Dilema is: to let the Scoob go would be financial suicide, however I would for a real nice Repsol....

I know someone who has a repsol blade, dry stored approx 6 years(I think).
It is split mint (approx 2,500 miles) fancy wheels,brake hoses,can etc.
Mirror polished frame and spent a lot more time polishing/cleaning than riding it.
The last time I spoke to him he wanted about £3,300 for it. Dont know if this is value? He is local to me and I can get details/pics if its of any interest.

I think he's after the later blade which comes with the Repsol paint job as a factory colour scheme, not your friends dream machine or similar job(which does sound very nice)
I think, Mr bond, this dilema is getting the better of you, sod the scoob and go and get the blade thing out of your system, you know you want too!!
You'll save £££ on running costs if you got the bike anyway....

Your so right brybusa...
To leave the Subaru fold would be very painfull, as I love my motor.
However the one & only reason I would consider parting with my Scoob is for a trick 2004/5 Blade nothing else.
What scares me more than anything is the investment of over 18k to date on my Scoob & If I keep it I know I shall keep on tricking it up.

I feel your pain ...i sold my scoob to get my dream bike and 3 years on have no regrets....you'll save ££££££ a year in fuel ,expensive servicing,then theres the paranoia of leaving the car somewhere "safe".
The highs the bike provides are far greater than the ones a car can offer..IMHO....but im sure you know all that anyway mate!
