Striaght line speed.?

[Jordi17]

Jordi, you don't seem to be getting this. You posted the last comment so does that mean your knowledge is even, even more Sunday league? Also, the Impreza may be a quicker A to B car but that's not the point.

BTW, I've nothing against Scobbys. They are what they are - and very ugly! The new version is almost comical to look at!

why is it comical to look at, just because it isnt a saloon and doesnt have a big rear wing? imprezas are about pace and as long as it has it, who cares what it looks like?

 

[realnumber 1]

LOL

your car knowledge and experiences are also in a different league... sunday league.

Impreza's are crude and far from drivers cars, hence the understeer. Drivers cars dont understeer typically.

yeah course they are...unlike clios :boring: your car knowledge seems to be even more sunday league than mine, by even continuing with the silly arguement, just admit it, clios do not touch imprezas in any way or form!

LOL, if you say so:rasp: You would have been 10 when tgat was written:S

Big rear wings look pi$h. Not sure what you mean by the saloon comment?? The new scooby has been designed by primary 1 school kids. You clearly like them. A lot! Fair enough.

you said the new impreza looks crap, why does it, just because its a hatchback without the wing, gold brembos etc. I do like them yeh, awesome cars. i wouldnt be defending them if i didnt like them would i.

It's got nothing to do with the add-ons (wings, big brakes etc) it's just a dull looking car imo.

As I said, "fair enough". You don't need to defend everytime!

Thats also fair enough if you dont like it. With differnt wheels etc it soon comes to life http://www.wrxparts.com.au/kevsti/114.jpg.

[TheJesus]

the day I take car advice from a kid who cant drive is the day I successfully manage to lick my elbow and eat my own head. Basic 182 will easily keep pace with most if not all base model turbocharged impreza's... that's just in a straight line, forget corners. I've driven every evolution of the Impreza bar the latest one, this is my experience of one, not a 2nd hand account of how good it is from a passenger seat with ZERO driving experience... anyway, dont know how Impreza's came into this :S

EXACTLY, base model, stick it up against a spec c, sti type 25 etc and we will see a different story. **** me off all you want, i know im right. if youve drive all these imprezas why do you own a clio?

we know a spec C's faster... but you said any scooby and the base model is the only one that's remotely in the same price bracket. And I own a Clio because I dont like Impreza's enough to waste my cash on one. It's cheaper to mod my Clio to the point it will blow most models away on a straight road and totally embarrass them through the infamous 'twisies'. I'd have an Impreza classic over a Glanza all day long, however I'd take a Mk1 2.0 or Mk2 2.0 over both.

 

[Martin_172]

In my experiance from having a play with few uk wrx's they have plenty grip and power to pull them out the bends but the clio appears to be able to corner just as quick if not quicker, and straight line there isnt much in it, impreza slightly quicker on the newer models.

my mate sold his 172 for one before selling it to buy another 172, cost twice as much to run, insure etc and once he got bored of the noise he was bored with it!

No offence mate. But youre a f**king muppet. You should maybe experience a bit of driving before you start spouting off about how good a particular car is because "daddy" has one.

Do you intend to buy some Marks and Spencers briefs to hold the s**t against your backside when you understeer into a bush, because "daddy" wears them?

Scoobies are for chavs and drug dealers. Not people who want to enjoy driving.

 

[gaz44]

There are lots of chav looking girls driving them these days. Enough said.

wtf are you on about marks and sparks pants you muppet. you can hardly say only chavs drive scoobs as most clios i see have bodykits and chrome wheels on pmsl

 

[TheJesus]

old fella drives a scoob and most of the Clio's you see have body kits? Coucil estate or lying?

 

[joebristolgym]

Scooby's are ok - they cover ground very quickly, and sound lovely. They don't feel 'alive' though...the best car moments for me have been in cars where you feel the speed -the closer to dying you are the more adrenaline you have....or something like that lol!

My 182 still isn't as exciting as my 205Gti Mi16 I had or the kit car.

 

[gaz44]

You can't beat the sound of a wastegate valve in the morning! On the estate.

I have never seen a Clio with chrome wheels. Do you live near Westwood - blastin' off!

 

[JonC]

.........er.....so, yeah, the Starlet/Glanza looks pants but is faster than a 172 for the money....

 

[joebristolgym]

The 172 is faster then the glanza standard vs standard lol...it must be in all those comments somewhere. Clio also handles the corners better too. 172/182 all the way.

the flat four burble, you cant beat it :approve:

 

[TheJesus]

about the only thing I do agree with you on lol

it is one of the nicest sound 4 cylinder engines about, but the later models sound pants compared to the classics due to the equal length headers

 

[gaz44]

So, if you want a nice sounding, understeering, chav/drug dealing motor car, go for the Subaru. If you want everything else from a car, buy a Clio. And f**k the peace of $hit Glanza.

and if you want reliabilty it has to be the impreza

[Mike_H]

I don't think they are well known for their reliability, my mates 03 WRX prodrive has gone thorough two gear boxes in just over a year

 

[andrebailliesearle]

How many amateur experts are on here with zero knowledge!!!! How come kris meeke in a 1600cc clio rallycar can beat Metro 6r4's, Impreza WRC's etc????? Coz he can drive, Ive got a impreza STi Version5, Evo 6 and my clio is quicker through the twisty stuff as it is easy to set up for the corner and throw about as so light. Doesnt matter what the car is it is how you drive it. Any i can back up this claim as i have got the awards for winning my class in International and National rally championships.

 

[andrebailliesearle]

Impreza reliability is 2nd to none, it the idiots who mistreat them that cause pistons and gearboxes to fail.

absolutely right, find a scooby form an enthusiast (like a clio sport enthusiast) and you will get a good one as they know about warming up and cooling down and have mechanical sympathy which as gaz44 sais chavs dont understand that lol

im sure you will be able to find one from an enthusiast, theres 70,000 on SN, and most buyers are enthusiasts anyway
