I was told by a designer that the Scoob has a confusion of lines in the front below the grille and you could not clearly see where its pupils were....I had just managed to convince myself how nice-looking it was.

EVO 7/8 looks better in the flesh, pictures don't do it justice. More aggressive than STi 7/8. IMO of course.

Everyone to their own opinion.

Please dont let this become another "which car is faster thread?",we all know the evo is quicker.

Both ugly family saloon cars with almost tasteless motorsport inspired bodywork revisions, but as j4mou says, it's the attitude you go for. The performance lures you into appreciating the looks, but they are both very ugly from a design or style POV. I prefer Scoobs BTW

Agreed - neither could be classed as pretty but even though I would have said scooby if we were talking about the classic, the evo is starting to look leaner and more purposeful when you compare current models.

Evo I think no offence intended. Both pretty ugly but the Evo looks mean.

front of the new e8 260 looks good with the fmic but the back end looks like a normal family saloon with a tiny spoiler.

Interior wise scoob everytime

Prettiest? Neither.
Meanest, most purposeful and downright best? Evo.
Long journey, or steady run out? Scoob.

Neither are attractive, I think, purposeful and well designed, yes, but who in their right mind would buy either of these cars for their looks and not their capabilities. Love my scoob as I do!

Good looking cars generally hail from Europe and cost five times as much, imo.

Or eight times as much, thinking about the Maranello I was behind in the park today....

Looking at those pics - The Scoob everytime. The EVO looks like a dressed up (badly) minicab with Slab sides and I usually like the looks of the EVO!

Yes, my Scoob. An analogy I used on here recently was they're like that ugly bird in the pub that everyone knows is fantastic in bed. You still would, even though she's ugly ! The looks become trivial after the experience of driving them, and the associated social scene is superb. Guess the ugly bird's got lots of fun mates

I think I've only owned one good looking car, and I still own it, but it's not my scoob, although I wouldn't class that as ugly. My VR6 Corrado still puts it in the shade, even though it's 10 years old.

Back atcha.

Come on man, how old are you? Different strokes for different folks! Just because looks are important to you, it doesn't make it the case for everyone else - you ain't the blueprint from which the rest of the world was made!

If someone tells you they like their car for what it is/does, not for how it looks, just accept it - there's no need to insult them. Your reasons for buying a car don't mean squat to anybody else, so get over yourself.

Madjay - I can't for the life of me understand plebs who reply to their own replies on internet bbs' but hey thats life eh? Ever heard of function over form?? Thats why I bought a scoob - it does what it says on the tin. Theres no way you can tell me that a scoob is a 'pretty' car...it just aint! Theres plenty of positive things you can say about them but 'pretty'??? nah.

why buy bits to modify the exterior if its ugly???

to make it look better perhaps?

been to the nbo today, and seen some great cars.

even people that have rb5, 22b and type r modify them. why?

because its their car and its their choice.

i used to dislike the bug eye and blob eye shape immensly, but they grow on you. I cant stand the standard bug eyes, but chrissy' and tiny' both look bloody brilliant.n again my choice.

just my 2 pence.
