I wouldnt chop my spec c in for one but id have one if it was given to me i certainly wouldnt buy one out of my own hard earned

The interior looks like a vast improvement. The exterior styling is slightly better once you get used to it... but it is still a hatchback and I don't think I would want one on that basis.

Varboy

NO, NO and NO

Yes... but a 6 month old one so somebody else can take the new car depreciation hit this time round

There really is no consistent theme/style in the design - its like they've cut and pasted parts from all the cars out at the moment.

bmac800

Yes definitely considering it - my car will be three years old in the spring so time for a change.Thought the Evo X would be the better bet but I am not impressed with the way it looks having seen the pictures but will need to see both of them in the flesh.
Also putting me off the Evo is that it will be a lot more expensive to buy,run and the servicing is a pain with twice a year 220 mile round trips to the nearest dealer.

no way its a dog looks like a cheap ford st

Mikkel

You've hit the nail on the head. Subaru tend to do this, they just follow current trends and tend to try a bit too hard at times.

If they ever get the styling right, in their own style that is, it will be the perfect car as mechanically they are sound.

evilpob

It's not for me...

I don't like it... I would want a bigger bonet scoop... I does look like a ford or everything else that's about...

When i had my Leon Cupra R they bought out a new Leon and i have to say i didn't like it... but others did.. another Split decision.

I like the touring car version of the Leon but had Fat Wings and Big/lowbumpers, Spoiler but your never be able to buy one like that..

it's the same for the new STI.. so it's a no from me..

plus i love my Scoobie.. and sound of it... Will the new one have that Scoobie sound??!?!?

pslewis

YEP!!

With the Cream Leather ...... and, as said above, a 6 month old one - these are going to lose LOADS in their first 6 months.

What will they be new? £28k? £19k after 6 months?

don't really care how much more mechanically advanced it may be, it's a dog and always will be. doesn't matter how much plastic they throw on it.

the interior brings it up a little, but i bet it still rattles and squeeks like they all do

Brownbread

Nope, much prefer the classics.

markGT

I think it looks good, a much better effort then the EVO X which just looks wrong from all angles. However I prefer the looks of my MY05 STI PPP and won't be chopping it in anytime soon.

Yes from me.

There are certain things that are not to my liking but overall i like it.

Sold my scoob in preperation for the hatch so as soon as we get some pricing and availability options i will be ordering.

Completely understand the logic about buying a 6 month old car and avoiding depreciation but there is nothing like having an untouched new car

Group buy anyone ???

Snazy

I might just......
But no plans on chopping the 07 in just yet, so will have to wait and see what comes up, and if Motorpoint or similar will offer me a good PX on mine.

The car is growing on my rapidly I have to say. There are things about it I dont like, but the same can be said about the hawk I have now.

pslewis

That's true .... I bought my Impreza in May 2000 at a price of around £22,000 - 7 1/2 years later it's lost a huge amount of money.

5 Years ago I bought a secondhand Mazda MX5 - it hasn't lost a penny.

A harsh lesson for me, as the Impreza was my first new car - a 6 month old car makes amazing economic sense.

Snazy

How second hand was the MX though?
Some cars reach a point and just sit there, loads of examples of them out there.

You will always lose money on a new new car, unless its a top marque.
Hopefully they wont lose money at the same rate that rep cars do, so 40-50% over 3 years.... I reckon I can live with that lol

Oh I have to ask...

How much is/was the scooby valued at now, and how much is its import opposite ?
Just wondered if depreciation of imports is still considerably worse at that stage too.

Swede-STI

Yes,

Will take a look at it as soon it´s arive at the Subaru dealer in Sweden.

MY09 in silver please !

MattW

The silver one looks good IMO. Not sure it would tempt me out of my S3, the practicality of 5 doors and an extra 35bhp doesn't outweigh the residuals, build quality and running costs of the Audi.

blagman

Very tempted just a little concerned that they are already working on a front end re-style and it smacks of the Bug eye problem again. Don't want to get caught with something six months old and already out of date.

At £28 ish still think it is good value against what the Germmans can serv up for that money, looks good in met black with anthracite prodrive wheels

pslewis

Interesting point ref the cars that reach a point and sit there ..... interesting, because the Scooby Impreza Turbo Classic is one such car - whats the bottom price of a running Impreza Turbo? £2500? The parts are worth that alone, I would guess?

My car is a 1 Owner UK car - not sure how many Import Classics can boast one owner? so very hard to compare. It's also even more rare by the fact that it has never been played with.
