Hi guys and girls.
This is my first post so please be gentle. After careful saving I am now in the position to be able to buy my first subaru. I would be very greatfull for any advice/information on the following options I am considering.
1) New MY03 WRX (thinking of black mica with tinted windows).
2) MY02 STI (local dealer has mica blue one for sale).
3) MY02 UK300 (seen one listed at a dealer on the subaru website).
Thanks,
stuart

None of the above buy mine 
In all seriousness, out of that list I would go for either the MY03 WRX or STI. If the WRX is standard you'll definately want to get the PPP (or similar mods) as you'll soon crave more power so factor this into your budget. The STI is a better package - nicer styling and more power (I actually think the bugeye STI's are better looking than the 03 onwards blobeyes) ..........zips up the flame suit
The UK300 from a dealer will attract a premium over a standard WRX which really isn't worth the extra for some wheels, headlights and seats as most bugeye WRX's will have already had the lights changed for Morrettes or something similiar anyway (and will be cheaper). Again, if you do really want a limited edition make sure it's got the PPP
All IMHO

Forgot to say is the STI a Prodrive Edition - i.e. nicer bumber and spoiler? If so, much better looking, again IMHO than the standard UK STI's
Test drive all 3 if you can and see what you prefer.
Whatever you buy, all scoobs are superb cars and you won't be able to wipe the grin off your face for at least a month - after that you'll start lurking in the for sale forum for extra bits and pieces to keep the grin
Oh, and welcome to the board
