I agree with Moley £14k for a spec c with all those goodies is a bargain!

So overall the Spec C is his preference followed by the WR1, then the RB. Simples.

How can you say the most iconic, highest engineered and one of the rarest Subarus ever is too much money? If you want my opinion i'd say the same about the fleet of UK specials apart from the P1.

Kenny has taken great care of that car, its probably cleaner that brand new. Ive had the great pleaser of a quick glance at that car.

As said before, it would wipe the floor dry with any UK scoob.

This is a proper Subaru, not one with fancy grill and a flash paint scheme

I understand that

Explain why someone would have a WR1 over a RB320.

gotta admit i dont know why anyone would take a wr1 over an rb320 or even a normal sti,
the colour is awful and makes them hard to sell on.
a widetrack blob sti is a far better car and doesnt have the downside of being an awful colour.

Only problem with the RB 320 is I hate the black with dark wheels look, but love the interior.

Wish I could afford that RA R that's my dream car, or a Litchfield.

I love that look. It looks stealthy imo.
Which interior do you like? They came with 3 options.

im not a fan of black imprezas but love the wheels on the rb320 and the interior is a far nicer place than a standard sti. the seats are very good and the orange badges finish it off
only downside is the 2.5 engine which is why i would choose a jdm hawk everytime

That was a £1500 extra. Standard Rb320 came with blue sti seats. the 2.5 engine is a nice lump for road driving, just needs a bit spending on it if you want big power. It's no real biggy a set of pistons is it? and you can't slate the whole car just because of that.

Exactly that, although I was close to buying an RB when I sold my WR1 then I test drove the Spec C and there was only one car for me. I prefer the 2 litre to the 2.5 and I expect alot of people will agree with me.
