You can't polish a turd.

Very true thats why they decided to put carbon on it instead

RA Dunk

Rather than take something which looks **** and cover it with carbon to look good, hows about they just design something that looks good to begin with?

And you really believe that your 12 year old Impreza looks good

Tone Loc

LOL... of course they do. Nothing will ever be as good as the 'classic'

TX.

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Like it or not the classic Impreza is an icon, whereas the hatchback is not and never will be.

urban

iTrader: (1)

Why?
It was a simple enough statement.

Classic - good looking
Yeah right!

Perhaps it might be an icon(we'll maybe one model anyway?) - but its far from ******* good looking

Let's face it, Subaru never made the most beautiful of cars but you don't buy them for their beauty, do you?
Why always the endless argument which one is more beautiful?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Well you're not really in a psoition to judge are you seeing as, all joking aisde, you are driving one of the world's ugliest cars!!!

The iconic image of an Impreza is Colin McRae in the classic shape saloon blatting over a rally stage, it is not some 40 something wannabe rally driver taking his best years behind her wife and 2.2 kids out to McDonalds in the b4stard child of a Ford Foucus and the ugly stick with STI badges stuck all over it.

Here endeth the lesson!

says the man who knows and is obviously the authority on such matters

urban

iTrader: (1)

No, you're right - they've never made a beautiful car.
But those classic blinkered boys can't see that

Glad you realise it, thanks for the endorsement

urban

iTrader: (1)

Wise up - colin mcrae.
What ******* age you

I've owned every shape of Impreza, so I think I'm better placed to judge them

How many rust holes are on your shed anyway
All this bad weather must be a nightmare for it.

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

So all Imprezas are ugly, but some are way more ugly than others?

The one advantage of the hatchback is it made me realise the bugeye is actually not a bad looking car... relatievly speaking

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

I think if you ask what started the whole Scooby scene off in the UK you will find most will answer.... Colin McRae!! What is your issue with that?

No rust on my shed thanks

Tone Loc

iTrader: (1)

I really do pi$$ myself at these threads...

I wonder what all these 'classic' owners will do when their cars are so old it gets a free bus pass. Still bleeting on about it being an icon i guess

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

Maybe, maybe not, at least we have the option

Tone Loc

iTrader: (1)

Option i what? Everybody has options... i had a classic (2 in fact), had the option to get rid and have never regretted it. That was nearly some 5 years ago when i thought they were old hat then....

Littleted

bet thats factory order only


pity id have one

anyone got a stillsaw ?

urban

iTrader: (1)

No they won't, they'll answer Prodrive.

Rust - Had all the rust cut out in the body shop then


Indeed - tis funny though.
Its a bit like the people that say - Oh, I met such and such when I was 15.
We've been together since then.

Imagine how bloody boring that must be - only one sexual partner having not known anything else

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

Option to call it an icon.... was it really that difficult to understand?

So you think it's old hat. Bully for you. It is dated and old fashioned in some ways, but I like it and that is all that matters.

Anyway none of that changes the fact that the hatch is a monumental failure of a car - just look at the sales figures LOL!

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

No, they won't!!! I can feel a poll coming on

Nope, it just doesn't have any ..... yet

What if you have had several bits on the side?

urban

iTrader: (1)

I really think you should look at the sales figures - properly though.

Perhaps take off the blinkers too

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

Post them up then. I think you will find that for the UK at least they are woeful! Even adjusting them for the recesion I think only Renault have seen more of a downturn.

Tone Loc

iTrader: (1)

I have the option to call it an icon... i have owned one. I still don't get your point. As i said we all have options

Awwww... ''you like it and that's all that matters . I'll let you off then for owning such an old chav chariot.

Yep, sales figures have been horse ****... but that can be said of a lot of high C02 cars since 2008. But i like it and that's all that matters

ramdor

iTrader: (2)

Nothing to do with financial crisis and general feeling of 'omg its a recession, or something' for the last couple of years. Nah, nothing to do with that at all. Oh wait, just forgot, this is coming from the chap who is the authority on all things new age

f1_fan

iTrader: (9)

As said above even after adjusting for the recession Subaru are only better than Renault. Do wish you would learn to read.

Littleted

subaru americas sales were up 14% mainly foresters n outbacks but still cool.

But also Car Tax , recession, cost of fuel all hurts these babies,

Cant judge a renault now there just french turd, being French make it pants ( never forgive em since they blocked our fishemen and farmers )
