Default What to buy?

Been away from the Subaru seen for a while but in the next few months hopefully I will be back in one

Which to buy?

Classic with a remap/prodrive

Blob/Bug WRX with remap/prodrive

Which would be quicker out of the two? I no many will say get an sti with a remap but budget might not go that far.

Also what is the score with tax price on a Blob/Bug....

Depends what you do to them mate.

Having owned a few of each i would go for a classic any day over the blob or bug (My opinion).

STI Type R

I'd probably go with a blob purely because it's a newer car as such reduced likelihood of faults cropping up, if you just want speed though, a classic STi will give you that.
