RB5 or STi Type R
 

Hi
Just looking for some advice which would you consider to be the best car including resale value/appeal between a 1999 RB5 ltd edn or 1997 STi Type R '555' edn, both cars for sale at the same price
Cheers for any help

The R is in a different league on many fronts!!!
At the end of the day, an RB5 is essentially a UK car with a few tarty bits :thumb:

need i say more.

ok i will, what they all say;)

Thanks :thumb:

Exactly, 2 very different cars in both dress sense and performance.
After driving both, there really is no choice to make.

put it this way i have a turbo 2000 which is more or less the same as a RB5, and i want a type R.

Type R...Obviously... :thumb:

If you want acceleration changing gears and 2 door and higher insurance + petrol costs u cant beet the type r i love mine

Coming from an RB5 owner

Obviously there is the difference in power, but the thing for me with the type r is it just feels a totally different car to drive everything feels better.

Type R more intimate, more immediate and more fun.
