Hi, I went from a uk turbo to a wrx sti ra v2 , best change I ever made, and yes very aggressive, quick, noisy and hard suspension I'm sure your kid will love it as will my newborn baby in a couple of weeks time.

exceptional choice but proper hardcore- many people consider them the ultimate incarnation of the Impreza- including me (I've had 7 RAs, both WRX and STI, and love em)

I have never owned the uk Scoob,But all i can say about my own is,I have owned some exotic cars along the way..Lotus,Porsche 911`s eta....And NONE have the agression of the STI type RA.Mine is the 95 year..I still cannot believe the power and handling of the RA...I think you`ll be absolutly extatic....As for the little one in the back...Its all down to your right foot....Make sure you get to know the acceloration of the RA,As when i first got mine...I nearly hit the car i was overtaking with the agression of the cars get up and go....Hope this helps....You wont regret it...What a monster.....Kev.

I too can second that WRX,
Its quite easy to under-estimate the power & get up & go when overtaking other cars, its very nearly happened to me.
