Only you can do that, they are very different cars.

Drive a couple of bugeyes and a couple rb5s, then you will know. That is the only way to be sure you get what you want.

I`d go for the RB personally, i do favour the classic shape though, plus the limited edition value side of things...just my opinon...

to use everyday i think a Newage would be best. IMO

For occassional/weekend use the limited edition would be better but only if you weren't gonna rack up the milage etc etc that way it may hold it value more.

But as stated before its only you that can decide

My mate and I had the same decision to make last year - he went for the RB5 and I went for the Fugly 01 WRX. Both very happy with our choices. I did mod mine, mind, and he effectively uses the RB5 as a second/weekend car.

Hello Stev, if you read this !
