I realise this is totally against the grain, especially on Scoobynet

but I cant stand it I own either an Impreza or a Subaru,

so is this my own personal issue I need to adddress or a more widespread problem ???


yes, I'm bored but this is a discussion forum

 

yes i am the same i never refer to my car as a scooby nor anyone else's

 

have to agree, I dont like the word either

 

AHHHH come on guyz its a scoob, scooby, subaru or an impreza, nothing wrong with these terms, just the younger gen adding the slang to there ever growing language

 

I think
1. your lucky if you own one
2. is it uncool for your car to have a nickname,not all cars do?

 

there is nothing wrong with you giving your car a nickname, i just don't call mine a scooby.

 

The word itself doesnt bother me... the close relation that some people have to Scooby-Doo however, I don't like!! Why stick Scooby-Doo stickers all over your car?! Each to their own I guess like

 

 

No, it's not uncool if it's a term of endearment, as it is with 'Scooby' I do, however, cringe a little bit when I see stuffed Scooby-do's on the bonnet of Impreza's at shows!
The nickname stuck only because of it's rhyming link.

Su-ba-ru ... Scoo-by-doo

Ref to scooby doesn't upset me albeit I just say Impreza (most of the time).

TX.

 

good point maybe thats my issue, the stuffed scooby doo thing I find slightly weird, I never had a problem calling my Porsche a Porsch even used to call my Elise a Liz as a lot of owners do,

so I think it's either a problem with having a 2 syllable "nick name" or the stuffed scooby doo thing

If i hear anyone call an Impreza a Scooby my mind still conjours up a shagged out classic with rally repro graphics, shiny "ebay performance" wheels, too many speakers and an eurotunnel exhaust.
Either way glad I'm not on my own

btw, no offence intended to Classics

 

"Su-ba-ru ... Scoo-by-doo"

I get that... I just dont enjoy seeing cartoon dog clad Imprezas is all

 

nowt wrong with it . lol i call mine a REX.

 

I have other things that worry me. If this is the only thing that pissed me off in a day.... it's not been such a bad one

 

scooby came from a early film in the 90s

 

the scooby pic at the side of your profile is a classic

 

I'm aware of that

I love classics if my Impreza was a weekend toy I would have bought a 555 STI Classic, but it's my everyday hack so I bought the best thing for my needs which ended up being a Bugeye wagon

theres no option for a newage wagon pic on the profile btw

 

u need 2 chillax n'd git darn wiv de kids man! it's a scoob innit!


I do call mine "the scoob!"

 

If your'e lucky u can call it ya beast.

 

Call mine a wagon!

 

How about Scoowagon, Scoobagon, Scoogonoo or Wagonooo? These are equally as good. Obviously.

 

It's the law, they have to be called Scoobys

 

I tolerate it....

But then I have a Prodrive STI.



dunx

 

That would be called a Scoodrive or Prooby then....

 

You had a brew or two ?

12 minutes to go till 1730....... and counting

 

pmsl

 

i call mine the beast!! because iv got a dog called scooby

 

There are very few cars with nicknames. It's very cool and equally that it should be known worldwide by a single name is a real privilege.

ScoobyWagon!! (Both my doggies love it)

The one that does totally do my head in is the word 'Subie'. F**king yanks, they just have to have their own word!!

 

But the Aussies call theirs REX's, as they got the WRX we got UK Turbo 2000....
