i finally got my hands on one of these for a somewhat extended drive and ......... i didn't leave LOVING it, if i'm honest...... maybe it was the hype, maybe it was all the youtube videos ive been watching. Don't get me wrong, its a fantastic little hatch but..... it reminded me of a fast audi... Definitely more impreza than evo ( if anyone gets than analogy) . Ill do a more in depth review when i'm off work later in the week.

As such i definitely will get one.... but i wont be buying new. Deposit returned.
Fair play to you for letting actual experience dictate rather than hype. So many of my friends buy cars purely based on hype and they have decided down to exact spec etc before driving it or even sitting in it. It's beyond me.
It's interesting isn't it, you'd think they'd have just released a 6R4 or RS200 with everything being said.

I just think it's a sign of the times, the last 10 years have been seriously boring car releases (cars that normal people can afford) hence people get excited over something slightly focused for reasonable cash.

Similar story to when the GT86 was released...

Beedub, Megan R26R should do you for nipping to the shops :evil:
