........i love it!

Faithers new WRX-S...





Very good deal through John Spicer at S&S and thanks to Dougie for the help.
Tomorrow will hopefully see some Swissvax on it. B)

 

i hope you bought it for a super cheap price, i couldnt get 7g on one of these as a part ex price.

 

Got it a VERY good price.

£22,495 was the usual cost, but they were doing a September deal at £20k, although this one being already registered, we got another "discount".

 

So long as you like it.

Nice wheels though.

 

looks nice

 

Cheers fella's.

Biggest surprise is the torque tbh. It's only 10ish lbs ft off the STi and with 250hp, it goes well for it.

 

Looks well

 

cool man! i do like them alot more as every day goes by lol

 

Looks good fella

 

I have seem a WRX in other colours,and they look just like any other hatch, but in white the look spot on.

 

looks nice in white as all scoobys do, not a bad price too
wiley

 

Many thanks guys.


By the looks of it, we should have got some sort of STi front lip spoiler on it too, so will speak to the dealer soon.

Should look like this...

 

hi there if your happy with it good on ya fella
not for me am affraid, really dont feel like a scooby to drive? i drove an 08 plate at work was really dissapointed with it! altho i do love how the new sti looks. happy for ya tho buddy

 

They,re growing on me, slowly though..lol

 

It isn't like the classic to drive no, but the classic's design is circa 20 years old now.

It still feel's like a scoob to drive and this WRX-S with torque nearly the same as the STi(but without the cost) and being 110kgs LIGHTER than the STi, both power to weight added together with the lbs ft, it goes VERY well for the cost.

 

So this WRX-S is a good option to think about before buying the Stock STi hatch.

 

I like it myself mate. Enjoy it.

Steve

 

Exactly fella!

WRX ~ STI ~ WRX-S

Weight(kgs) 1395 1505 1395
Power(hp) 227 296 251
Torque(lbs ft) 236 300 288
PtoWratio(per ton)165 200 183

And in a torque to weight conversion, the WRX-S is higher than the STI, by roughly 6 lbs ft.


STI costs a good few grand more though.

 

gorgeous from the front, suspect at the back, think it's the 3 paned glass. Would look spot on with 2 panels.
