Smile Newbie from Herts saying Hi

Hi everyone Im Ricky from Watford & am car crazy! I currently drive a slightly modded JDM 350z with approx 290 bhp in sunset orange. I'v previously owned Honda Civic's some done up Cal style & before the zed owned an E36 M3 Cab in Estoril blue. Iv even had a 4.0 TVR Chimaera for a couple of years, nothing but a money draining babe magnet!

Anyway the reason Im on here is because I have nothing but admiration of the Scooby, as true car enthusiast. Makes of cars are secondary to the experience each delivers. I usually keep my cars for a few years before changing & never buy new! So as you may have suspected I shall be hopefuly buying a Scooby in a years time approx. The zed is a great car but I will be needing 4 seats & a proper boot in the future

So exscuse any dumb questions I may ask, on the other hand I know a bit about 350z's & BMW's! ps I'm hoping to go for a couple of years old UK MY06 STI PPP or maybe a My06 JDM STI, dont know much about the differences yet to make any decesions on which though I am more in favour of the UK STI PPP.

Wellcome to SN

WE (Herts Subarus) have a monthly meet on every 1st sunday

please come and sign up to our forum - its free

Herts Subarus

i have had both JDM and UK

i would go for the JDM as its got a twin-scroll turbo set up which is more drivable and basicly no lag. and its got rear wipers which is a must in the winter.

Welcome to SNET mate.

Ive always had a soft spot for those 350z's.

Yours ain't looking too bad either.
