No chance, you are going to swap your current car of 2.5 years that you know in and out, have had a forged rebuild for a car you know nothing about that is 15years old (albeit so is yours but) I ask this

What is the point??????

Stick to what you have.

Anyhow what are you selling it for?

Or should I ask why are you selling?

You must have something you wanted to buy after selling, if that is the case then swap for what you were looking to buy if not stick to the plan and sell it

Why not? How many evo 3's do you see compared to an impreza?
My bro has a 3 and it turns more heads than my scoob.

Do you buy a car that simply turns heads? I personally couldn't give a **** if anyone looked at my car or not. I buy cars for me and me alone!

I dont buy cars to turn heads mate. I bought my impreza because i wanted one.
All i'm saying is why not go for something you don't see much.
Agreed that a straight swap is not worth it with the spec differences though.

Right so she says that and you think of a swap for a rival to the scoob and get and EVO lol brilliant think devorce will be on the cards lol

Get n half decent 330ci or Mondeo st or Audi s4 I think that is what your other half will be happy with

Back on topic i would keep yours over that evo3 maybe if it were forged and running more power or was giving you some cash then you could sell it on and have mire for a newer car.

Best of luck though

When people offer you a swap on pistonheads it's normally better for them than it is you When I was selling my Focus ST I was getting offered all sorts of crap even though I stated that I was only interested in a deal with an M3

If the guy wants your car he'll have to give you some cash to sweeten up the deal.
