I don't even classify WRX's as performance cars.

 

Or scoobys full stop haha

 

so why not sell it and fuck off back to rs forums then??

 

Think he rather likes getting shafted by everyone on here

 

sign of a retard

I hate scoobies,i hate scoobies,i hate scoobies
I love rs,i love rs,i love rs


so what did you do??

sold my rs and bought an impreza

 

LOL!!! Because the RS forum is full of jumped-up ******** that think they're RS's are the fastest things on Earth?

On second thoughts.....what you said!

 

read the comments

 

I cant see the vid, im on a phone. can someone enlighten me?

 

Basically the two cars have a straight run-off.
Someone in the Scooby is videoing the Focus.

Off they go, and immediately the cameraman has to look backwards, such is the relative speed that the scooby gets away from the line.
Same all the way down, the RS never makes anything up.

The comments are typical macho ones - "my so-and-so would thrash both of them", "put an AWD kit on the Focus an it would **** all over the Subaru" etc. etc.

 

Just watched it.

Never mind the fact that the RS no doubt cost the owner over 20k initially, then however much has been put into it modification wise. You can already see that it has a different brake setup (looks like AP's or brembos), lightweight comp alloys and has been lowered, no doubt on coilovers. Probably looking at the best part of 25k already, not including what may have been done to the engine.

But hey, if it had an AWD kit it would have beaten the subaru hands down lol

 

Cause id have to get the RS on finance again, and cant be assed with that....

think you have that the wrong way round pal haha its scooby owners that think their cars are the fastest things concorde haha

 

so you couldnt afford the finance so bought an impreza then keep banging on about how good the rs is...


why didnt you just save up for another one??

kids get thicker these days.

 

Wasnt that i couldnt afford it as such, coundlt afford to go out as much as id like while i was paying off finance.... and i will save for another, but while ive got the scoob i wanna abuse it on track a bit first....

 

if you cant afford it now living with your mummy, you never will when you grow up

 

Should of got another paper round...

 

Why you on this forum when all you do is talk **** about Subaru's all the time. Just do everyone a massive favour and **** off in the nicest possible way..

 

He's a regular Walter Mitty. The only Scooby and RS he's got are the ones in his Scalextric. The only track action he sees is the one initiated by his left/ and right hand holding the controller in one and his **** in the other!

 

Judging by the above video, even compared to the most up-to-date, highly modified RS model, even a well sorted classic is like a 'Concorde'. If I'd had been that RS driver, I would be slightly regretting my £20,000+ purchase, wishing I'd have bought an RS4 or similar instead.

 

So in terms of value-for-money, bang for buck, foot pound for pound there's no doubting the desirability of a Subaru ?

Well, faster than most off the line, around bends, through roundabouts and around them.

Your Fords are certainly quicker from 0-oblivion than a Subaru.
Take your Scooby for a spin down a few country roads utilising all your driving skills, and then try to do the same in an RS or whatever.

If you survive the second journey that will be because you either haven't the necessary skills to use a Subaru to its full potential, or you bottled it in the Ford.

I almost caused a young lad to kill himself and his missus a few weeks back.
Proud as can be in his pride and joy Fiesta ST he decided to be quicker than the scooby behind him and take a bend at 80. Twitched but fortunately didn't fishtail. I simply carried on at 70, and passed him in 5th with a blip of the accelerator.

Had I have accelerated into the bend and he saw me bearing down on him it would probably have been carnage.

It's not about speed, it's about the ability to handle it, and the car has an awful lot to do with that.

0-oblivion is the measure of man and machine in perfect harmony.
I'm already 0-57 and you have a long way to go to catch up.

If your driving mirrors the immaturity you've displayed on here you might never catch me.

Now, point this thread out to your mates waiting in whatever 'Look how I'm p!ssing off those scabby net to$$ers' forum that's having a laugh at this.

You haven't got the fastest cars, you haven't got the safest cars.
And neither have Subaru drivers.

But we make less Insurance claims and as far as I can see we've lived longer.

Work it out.

 

So lets recap for those who can't be arsed to read the whole thread.

Boy buy's Focus RS, can't afford payments on finance.
Boy sells Focus RS buys Subaru STI Type R.
Boy gets a$$ handed to him by mate in Fiesta ST.
Boy want's to know how this happened.
Boy gets told it's because he can't drive.
Boy gets hump and says "it must be the car"
Boy gets car checked and it's fine.
Boy gets told to get some lessons and learn how to handle a mans car.
Boy gets hump and slags off subarus.

So now we see a vid where a 420bhp Focus gets it's a$$ handed to it by a 311bhp subaru, and he's still defending the ford.

 

What a concise, if somewhat subjective, summary.

btw - has anyone identified whether the Subaru in the vid is an STi or WRX ?

 

FPMSL
Quality!

 

I say ban the feckin troll!

 

Now I'm confused, the Impreza in the video had a dump valve, you lot hate dump valves, and the RS was painted in Kermitt-puke green.

So which was worse?

 

Im going to guess the car in the video is an sti version 4

 

lol

 

So, anything between 10-15 years in terms of age (and technology) ?
Says it all really.

 

Dump valves don't improve the performance of the car, therefore the Subaru driver/owner was being open and transparent ie. 'this is not a performance-enhanced car' .

Kermit-puke green allows the RS driver to blend in once beaten.

 

If the rs had carbon dipped wheels it would have won.
Ill mention them before mr p1ssflap does

 

Great turn around of the thread by Scoobynets 'finest' anti-trolls
Where's Ash gone anyway? Back on Gran Turismo with a tube sock?
