Default Which of these 3 scoobs would you buy?

Thinking about selling my bugeye wrx, the replacements that i have in mind are the bugeye uk300, bugeye sti (jdm) or a classic shape wrx ra. I know the sti and ra would whip its *** but i love the look of the uk300.... Any thoughts cos i am **** with making decisions. P.s already owned a classic ra and a bug sti and loved them both.....

My preference would be the bug STi, it's more refined and a newer car.

You'll get lots of different opinions on here as we're all wired differently lol!

The UK300 isn't a step up from what you have.....JDM Bug would be the wisest choice, or even a UK bug.

The Bug STI. Tougher engine, better brakes, better 'box. No brainer for me.

Just don't bother with the UK300, as said its a WRX in a dress, they look nice, but there all show no go.

JDM STI as suggested above is a great car, and a good starting point should you go down the modifying route

Rob

Ps, what's your budget as there is quite a large price tag ?

Theres a lot of love for the bug sti my budget will stretch to around £5,500, providing i can sell mine for £3,000-£3,500... Hopefully i will get this as its immaculate with a couple of nice mods
