It's a bit sad to be honest. Plus one of those badges would look stupid on my Wagons bootlid

Maybe, but I think the concept is a little sad. A bit "old fashioned" or something an old boy would do to personalise his Honda Civic

These are big in the states. I see a lot of them on the more "adult owned" Foresters and Outback station wagons. They're free to order from Subaru of America if you provide your VIN.

I have one as well, tucked away nicely on the INSIDE of the trunk lid of my modded Impreza WRX

I really can't see the point in these

I do think it would be nice to have a good quality ScoobyNet one though that we could stick on and identify other members with.

Has been very interesting reading all the posts so far.

It shows the great divide in how "Subaru" is perceived by some in the UK and by those in the US.

Here it's all about the Impreza and how much power it can make and how it can be modded and not much else.

In the US it's a more main stream "family and outdoor living" brand where I suspect the Impreza is in the minority.

yes maybe because they didnt get the classic wrx/sti so the impreza tuning scene is smaller out there

What a total load of crap!
Can you imagine one of these with the 'Environment' or 'Gardening' addition on an Impreza!
