hi guys i was all ready to buy a wrx off these forums but my bother says its just a jumped up ford mondeo please help me make my mind up at the min i drive a ford escort gti
should i get the wrx or a honda civic trype r

 

WRX

 

WRX....no contest!!

 

If your main criteria is performance then the scooby wins, although in a straight line I'm sure the CTR isn't too far behind (no I'm not trying to start the wet and twisties thread again )

As performance cars, I expect they cost about the same to run (read a lot for the same)

I have to say, I considered CTR, but went for a second hand scooby for slightly less money. Don't regret my choice.

Love the performance, the practiciality (I have a Wagon) the sound - ohhh, the sound

If you have to ask and are listening to your brothers opinion you either have never been in a scooby or are not serious about getting either car.Both are fine cars but this is Scoobynet.What does your brother drive?

 

jumped up modeo

take a WRX out for a test drive and then try a mondeo.

no contest

I have a MY01 WRX and am looking at getting a CTR for the "misses" or as a second car....says it all really

From what ive read, the Type R is good in the dry and has to be rev'd alot to get it to go the same as a std scooby.

But the scooby is better all round and kicks the CTR in the wet. But the scooby costs more to run.

And the scoob is NO beefed up mondeo!!!!!

 

isnt a mondeo made by ford,and a scooby made by subaru
in which case a subaru cant be a ford can it?or can it!blimey, hard work all this car stuff

 

kazlo - a Saab can be a Subaru though, and it used to be a Vauxhaul

 

so a vauxhall cavalier can be a scooby then, as saabs used to be built on cavalier bases didnt they, so a Vauxhall Impreza !!!

dont sound right

 

I think the latest SAAB's are built on the Impreza Floorpan?

To the thread starter, if he needs his brothers approval then he isn't old enough to afford to run one ..... in which case I should stick to the Escort GTi
