Default subaru s202

can someone out ther tell me why you think it is ok to rip the **** out of someones car,i understand it may not be to everybodys taste,but to be honest if you were to see this car in the flesh you would change your mind ,the kit is not cheap fibre glass it is in fact very high quality carbon fibre ,and the front does not stick out as far as it looks in the pictures it just looks that way,
someone out ther as spent a lot of money on this car not me,and i must say the quality is awsome and i think considering the scooby is becoming one of the most common cars on the road,god you see more of them than saxo`s,and most of them are blue or silver i am personally glad to see a change,lets be honest the subaru is being left behind in the jap scene and they all just look the same ,thank god for mitsubishi,nissan,toyota,these companies uther wise we would all be driving around in silver or blue..????

You can always spot a daffodil-coloured, frog-eyed, max-powered monstrosity, though.

Thanks for that. Please use fullstops and capital letters. It makes reading your post possible.
I think the car looks dreadful. It may be "quality carbon fibre" but the market for a car looking like that will be tiny. Thats opinion for you.

Lost me in the first line
The S202 isnt meant to be tampered with, that was the entire point about it, it doesnt need heavy carbon fibre bonnets, the considerably lighter alloy part is much superior, and i do hope you havnt changed the exhaust and removed the titanium back box? that would be the ultimate sin

This car frustrates me because it's so close to being very sorted. As
I've said before, people just can't get beyond the shamefully tastless styling and when there's £16,500 at stake, this counts. It just looks so, so tacky and when coupled with the fact it's an S202, negative feedback is inevitable i'm afraid.

Having said the above, when you look at the spec, the 22k, the fact that it's an s202 and imagine it standard looking, I think someone will end up with a good scoob.
