I add it because if I dont then people ask, so it's just a pre empt thing really.

 

For such a bad thread it reached 2 pages pretty quickly

 

Is putting 'ring' stickers on a car a macho thing

james. WRX STI spec C WRlimited.
used to be WRX PPP and proud

 

 

Obviously I touched a raw nerve

 

Come on, you can do better than that

 

Have you been there?

 

No I got mine on ebay....

 

Mines one of them rare blue STI's

 

why is that then? - scared to go?

 

Gutmann, maybe the question should have been, "Is owning an Impreza, a 'macho' thing?".

 

terrified It must be because I'm not very macho...

 

So going to the Ring is macho..... ? Or is it a matter of thinking you are macho by going to the Ring..?

 

there lies the dilemna

 

You could take it to the extreme of just saying 'an Impreza' when someone asks what car you drive.

I have a WRXPPP by the way....I'm proud I guess.

 

Anything as long as its not referred to as a bloody ''Scooby''

 

Yes indeed dynamix, however, I have a feeling it might be the latter. My btg is better than your btg !

 

Lol, you don't like that term mate? Me neither really..

 

Yet you all come on 'scooby'net

it's somthing we have to live with weather we like it or not

WRX STI V2 RA

With 'ring sticker

 

Ringing is macho ?!

 

and I have complained bitterly about it,believe me!

The lame ''Scooby'' tag conjures up an image of a poor old Subaru with a whole host of chav add-ons to my mind

 

What's a mk1.5. That's why I hace just got a wrx. Couldn't be arsed saying I had a subaru impreza wrx sti ppp type uk. Oh yeh, and I couldn't afford one.

 

I was thinking of the orig' 'scooby', the Ford Fiesta XR2, that to most that I know was the first 'scooby' car

 

Where some people 'try' to be macho, others, just 'are'!

 

The original and only 'Scooby' was a bloody cartoon dog from the 70's! that has long since seen its sell by date

 

SUBARU WRX STI PPP

"SOD U BARSTADS AM RUNNING WORLD RALLY XTREME SINGLE TURBO INJECTION WITH PETER PANS *****"

 

What is so wrong with calling a car by its correct name?

STi
WRX
STi PPP
WRX PPP
STi Spec C
STi Type RA
STi JDM
STi Type UK

All different cars, and so named differently. What's the problem?

 

No problem at all

But what about the version 7,8.9's etc of this world?..just confuses people.

 

LOL

 

Ahh, it's a imaginary thing, like Elmer Fudpecker pointed out with people who dream up naming convensions to descibe their car (although his post on page 1 has strangely dissapeared )

Anyhoo, MK1.5 = Mark 1.5 1st version of the Impreza with the revised front end styling and engine. i.e a face lift classic.

Obviously, don't take this argument onto a Ford Escort forum. I still reckon the MK4 is a MK3.5, therfore the MK5 is a MK4 and the MK6 is just a revised MK4, so that's a MK4.5
