Container cost to much, we will make a little raft and paddle it across from Japan!!

 

Im totally down with that. I'll get on the weights in preperation. Smuggle them in VAT free.

 

 

I,ve had 4 classics including a Sti4, all great cars, but I prefer my current 05 Jdm Sti to them all. I,ve had it 4 years now and I still love it. Steve.

 

Some people may say that if they could have a classic or a UK newage, they would say classic. But if the choice was between a classic or a JDM newage, then they may say newage. Depends on how they interpret the poll I guess!

 

Don't see much difference between s202 and remaped wrx with vf34
Maybe two ;no ac on yours and 6k price difference

 

5. Keep my classic to love my classic even more each day

 

You haven't lived yet.

 

I will except only 5% finders fee just for you. http://www.hurstcars.co.uk/used-cars...01406145004198

 

Looks like you can now invest in Futures in cars.

Think I'll chuck one on E-bay:

'Arriving in 7 years, the very latest Subaru model, better than their UK crap'.

So:

• If you're a Subaru afficionado you know all about JDM, twinscroll etc.
• If you're not, then wtf is 'twinscroll turbo", "stronger revised internals" etc ?

 

classic jdm for looks and outright blast.

Been in newage and did feel more stable/refined but not same feeling of speed, too much of halfway house for me.

Supplemented classic with FXT, great all rounder. More refined/softer than classic for longer journeys and to take winter punishment. Attract slightly less attention but not immune . Not fast as stock but a few not very expensive mods and its double the stock power. Feel like 17 again driving it spiritedly and thats excluding the odd trier.

 

Having had borh. Newage for a road car. Classic if i wanted to set up a nice track car

 

Newage for me.. Love the look of an original tidy classics but prefer the newage as a daily car.

 

The question is flawed... should it not ask if you were to sell your current Impreza... other Subarus are available!

 

I think the classic has a hard and aggressive look about it.

 

Erm..... the question can't be "flawed".
Op asked a question, and fwiw has elicited a good crop of answers, stimulated a bit of debate etc.

The only reason that you can deem it "flawed" is that in your opinion op has asked the wrong question.

But it's impossible to ask a wrong question.

If you think about it that is.

 

The question underlying the poll is, "If you were to sell your Subaru to buy another, would it be a classic or newage?"

I drive a Forester STi. If I sold it to buy another Subaru I would buy, most likely, a JDM Twinscroll Legacy... so how can I vote in the poll/answer the question on that basis?

Seems flawed to me, but then I have a chip on my shoulder because loads of people think Subaru start and finish with the Impreza.

 

I think they do newage and classic versions of most Subaru so I would say you are quite within your rights to vote.
If the legacy you were to buy would be the classic then vote classic......please vote classic,,we are losing

 

Ah, so you're saying it's flawed because it doesn't cover everything Subaru?

But op's not asking that.
They're asking if you sold YOUR Subaru would you buy a 'classic or newage' which in fairness means Impreza.

I'd infer from that the op meant 'if your sold your Subaru Impreza......'

However, if I was a tad annoyed that SN members often forget the other models I'd like to think I would have posted something like "neither, since they're incompatible with the Forester I own".

And fwiw, tho' I've never been - and never likely to be - in that situation I can understand wagon, Forester, Legacy etc. owners being a bit narked that although they are members of the scooby-owning community, SN appears to be centred on Imprezas.

 

I personally have respect for all the Subaru range,classic and newage
So all I would say is VOTE CLASSIC

 

The distinction is quite different. The years don't follow in the same fashion in my opinion.

Unfortunately, the Legacy would be a mid-2000's version, so probably 'Newage' if applying the Impreza MY equivalent.

I also have a blobeye in the family, so don't think I'm likely to help you I'm afraid.

 

Yes, that's exactly my point, which was why I said in my initial post that the question should say "Impreza" and noted other Subarus are available.

I couldn't see an option for "neither" on the vote. My post was trying to make the point you made, but I phrased it in a different fashion which I realise now fell short as it was the buying side where it fell down.

It is frustrating that other cars get forgotten, because there are some excellent non-Impreza Subarus... especially these days as the WRX STi has dropped the name. There are no quick Imprezas rolling out of the factory now to my knowledge, so a change will have to come at some point!

 

 

Is anyone else surprised by just how close this poll is? Less than 1% in it.

 

Wonder how many voters have owned or driven both ?

 

How's that then?
There's only 50-odd posts (and less votes), so it should be at least a 2% difference.

 

Que? Currently stands at 105 votes, split 52-53.

 

**** !

Been looking at the posts, not the poll.
I thought things were going a bit slow.



PS just added mine (genuinely).

 

That might partly explain why we seemed to be talking at crossed purposes initially too.
