I saw one of those new bugeyes in green today. It was a 5 door which suits me. It would go with my green wellies when I'm plugging through the mud on my mate Teds farm in Wiltshire. I like my trusty Forester, but I wouldn't mind a GX, are they as fast as PopeyeP1's sport ?.....Bye...Blutes

 

any ideas ?.....Blutes

 

One word "MATTeL"!

 

Come on mattel, don't be shy. Didn't Mattel own Matchbox toy cars ? I used to buy Toys by Mattel for my Grandson.....Blutes

 

up she goes........

 

No green uns then ?

 

I've got a slighly scratched one :-(((((

Haven't seen the new one yet, but i think i will be taking a trip to the dealers tomorrow so might see one there.

Hi Bluto,

I travel quite a few miles for work and only seen one Green WRX - not far from Banbury on the M40. I (unlike the rest of the world) am okay with the new shape - but GREEN! It didn't work so an absolute no-no IMHO.

 

MATTeL it would appear would also be a user on the board! (Not the lower-case "e" to avoid any copyright/trademark issues)

Two pics of my car...

Dirty (just driven up a dirt track that was water logged) and a dull day so not showing it off the best...



People do like the colour but expect some jokes about it all the same (thanks ChrisB for the photo) from the Big One...


I would suggest colour is a personal choice... difference, does after all, make the world go around and at least I can find mine easily at meet (yes I know as long as I don't park near the bushes).

ive only seen one green wrx, 4 dr in swansea from listers
mark

 

There was one in the car park at work the other day, I have to admit it looked quite nice and I hate green cars....

 

Mark - I guess you have seen two now!

Richard - Where are you based (but not the exact location... protecting scoobies)?

I have seen two other Green MY01/02 in the metal... one in a show room and the other in Dublin.

 

I'm in Oxfordshire but the scoob was at work in High Wycombe - the big white and glass building as you go by on the M40!

 

green looks good on its own, better than that minging Monte Carlo edition I saw a few months back (no offence if it's your car )

 

That must be the other Scoob people have seen and thought it was me. I live in the approximate area.

 

MATTel, your car looks an absolute peach young man. I like the new WRX, its like a fingernail, it grows on you. I am seriously considering trading my 1999 Forester S Turbo in for a 5 door WRX this summer. I'm off to the dealers this weekend when I go over to stay with Ted and his missus. I will definately be ordering green if I decide.....Blutes

 

So MATTeL, I take it if a princess were to kiss you, you'd turn into a real prince?

 

I have never seen a green WRX - it look absolutely horrendous ... just my opinion of course. Why would you buy green, when you can have another colour???????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????

 

didnt like green much till i saw MATTeLLS motor at the big one
had to do a double take when i went past it later thinking "isnt that strange there was an identiical green one parked there 10 minutes ago but without the stickers"
By the way MATTeLL got a nice photo of yours without the stickers

 

MrDeli - If you have never seen one how would you know what it would look like?

 

mattstant - Yes the stickers! I go and do a good deed by directing the traffic (I was the idiot at the corner in the jacket, not the lunatic in the Ice Hockey shirt (Hi Vel)) wondered around the field looking at the cars come back and find my var being stickered up!

At least most people realised it was joke that had been played on me, unlike on couple that as I was about to put something in the car said "What a to$$er calling himself Subaru's Action Man".

Could you e-mail me picture? The address is in the profile.

 

Was that you last night going down the hill?
Only saw you at the last minute as you appeared to be camouflaged by the overhanging trees!!!!!

Spender

 

top advantage for getting away from the scum I would say!
proud owner of a green MY98

(not a scoobnet virgin anymore 2nd post)

 

*smirk* getting grief again Mark (aka MATTeL)?

To be honest, I didn't like the new green initially, but I like it quite a lot now... but then I now like wagons too.. so perhaps that don't mean anything!
