    The new Lancer is definitely better than the new Impreza, but at the end of the day it all depends on the individual and what they're looking for in a car and how much they want or can afford to spend Click here to enlarge

    seems like a good deal to me, who cares about the plastics..
    He actually said it's very sluggish...even for a 100kw engine. Because it has to carry all that extra AWD weight around. And plastics do matter, you spend your time inside ffs...they do matter. And it's 27k on road.

    A 100KW AWD is a waste of money. Might as well buy a reliable corolla.

    Oh and they were giving away a '99 Impreza P1!!!!Click here to enlarge
    GIVE UP THE SUBARU BASHING ... You drive an Astra which isnt even turboed FFS. Heres a thought. go and buy your self something with balls then come back and bag it out.

    Admin how many more ****ing WRX / Imprezza BASHING threads do we we need. BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT. And for your infomation the new WRX and Imprezza range is not that bad. They are selling well i believe and that what counts. cant be all that bad now can it.

    Bornsoft stop being a little pansy ass bitch and grow up .... .
