Yep,

Canceled mine last week, not happy with the colour and after looking at other cars I feel that £30k can be spent better elsewhere.


I think the interior looks crap and for it to be a special edition I would have expected subaru / im / prodrive to dress it up a lot more, it still looks like a 1982 Toyota Corrola for god sake. (IMHO)

Im still shopping

Yep, me too.
Had a moment of sanity:
I was sure that I wanted a WR1,
Saw one in the flesh.....,
Talked to some people who know lots more about cars in general than I do,
Talked to chap who knows lots about scoobys,
Read THAT article in EVO,
Talked to Ian Litchfield,
Called the dealer cancelled the WR1,
Ordered a 03 STI PPP.
Take delivery next week,
Saved 10k.

Exclamation

As posted a few weeks ago. Those expecting the WR1 to hold onto its money for a while are going to be posting here by the end of the year with symbols, when they p/x their car for Subarus newest shiniest car. And, that's not accounting for Subaru launching a 2.5 car.

If youre buying a car and worrying what it will be worth next year then you cant afford it.
