Default Yellow scoobs -any thoughts??

just got hold of a sti3 type R in yellow, seems a bit of a rare car, get loads of comments about colour,

i personally think it looks well,some people dont seem to agree,

there doesnt seem many knocking about in this colour,

are they rare?

i think it definately stands out more than my old white scoob!

YEllow one looks pretty good to me, can see how it will split opinions but it's down to what you like at end of the day

Not a fan of yellow cars, but would not complain about it on that type R!

Missed the type R bit of your post!! In most cases (2nd hand values) yellow is one of the worst colours you can choose, however you may have the complete reverse sit' with a car like yours!

May have to agree with both the split choice, and yellow being a girls colour, as I prefer the white, and my girlfriend likes it in yellow..... alot!! But it is a type R so colour not that important!

My sti v6 wagon is the standard cashmere yellow..and it's cool as f*ck!! Yellow is a bit of a marmite colour though...love it or hate it.

ps it's rare as well..does anyone else know of a yellow v6 sti wagon?

Yellow doesnt suit all the girls, my missus doesnt particularly like the colour,

customscoob, had your car on as wallpaper for abit when i found out i was getting this one as a bit of "incentive" looks the bo11ocks, this one needs a bit of tidying aswell as a piston before it gets to go anywhere-excellent basis for a winter "project"

cant wait til its done though!!!
