i've been a suby fan since I was 12, huge fan of the bug eye, didn't like the sti hatch, i kinda liked the boxy 2000 pre-hatch, and I'm finally finally sold on one that I'm actually going to buy.
Let's hope the 'concept' doesn't stray far from the production model

| Front looks a bit like the modern Jaguars. I'm still waiting for a WRX version of the BRZ. |

I bought a CX-7 AWD a few years ago and i absolutely love it! I've put about 80,000 km on it in just over 2 years and to date the only mods i have done are a new short ram intake with new BPV and a stage 1 ECU remap. It was great stock, but whats the point in having a turbo when it is silenced? its about 244 hp stock and with the intake upgrade and ECU remap its well over 300 now. lots of fun to drive and lots of room to move stuff around. I haven't tried out the new CX-5 yet so i cant comment on that one. |

Can't come back with anything can you since I debunked your "reviews"?
To be honest, I don't really know I bother; I mean no one that drives this should even be commenting in a thread about "taste" in cars.

I especially like the 1992 ford Escort-esq syling, and the alloys that are designed to look like hub caps. The only thing is, I can't understand why you haven't lowered it yet or painted go faster stripes along the sides for better performance? |

| Because its highly functional for where I live, has 40k miles on it, and I'd rather save my money than buy a flashy car for no reason. This thread was actually becoming relevant for a minute. Did you really need to get the last word to make yourself feel better? |

My 96 Honda Accord runs as good as any of those expensive cars.
ing snobs.
Point A to Point B. That's all I care about when it comes to cars.
I'd much rather spend my money on other things in life.
Different strokes, different folks. But don't come with that "you drive that so you don't know what a good car is" . |

| Exactly. I live in the rust belt and having full time awd is more valuable than having a touch screen nav system. There's no reason whatsoever to replace a car that's at like 1/4 of its lifespan. Djrann is just a perpetually pompous faggot. |

I had a friend in the army who had the same model reach 500,000 miles. I have 146,000 on mine.
I take care of my car, she takes care of me.
I could give two s about image or flash when I'm driving. As long as I get there, it.
Like I said, everyone has different tastes in different things and spend their money on them accordingly. But to use that against someone is bull, IMO. |

I'm not saying it isn't functional (although most AWD Audi's will be far better engineered) - I'm saying it's fugly and therefore when you start commenting on taste regarding cars as you did in this thread, you need to remember you drive a ing ugly car so probably better to STFU on that topic.
And let's remember this thread was started by someone who needs a car, by his own admission, to also look the part because of his line of work.
You may not like it but that's life, and frankly some of us like well engineered, well designed things, that feel and look nice. There's a real beauty in well made things that have both form and function and that doesn't come for free.
Some indeed are a total waste of money but I find the " your elitest choices" mentality (like if you buy one you she feel guilty/ashamed) just as cunty as those twats who buy BMW's to look flash. |
