drb5 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 ........i love it! Faithers new WRX-S... Very good deal through John Spicer at S&S and thanks to Dougie for the help;). Tomorrow will hopefully see some Swissvax on it.
b4z Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 see one of these in a show room and need 2 say they grow on u love it in white
drb5 Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 Too true! I never expected to like it as much as i did. I knew i liked the STi especially in white, but this being pearl white and still being just a WRX, the extra bit's, certainly make it look a LOT better. Almost STi looks for bargain price.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Loving the 80's white ! Those rims are nice too........enjoy her matey
ed-209 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Have they upgraded the brakes on this one? At least it's starting to grow on people, already pre-booked a test drive of the 330 sti. now how do I explain this one to the missus.
drb5 Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 Cheers fella's. Brakes are still the same Ed, but felt v. progressive and sticky, so good enough IMO. I'm still so shocked at how good it is, especially for the price.
corsa Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Nice mota Dave, Coulty,Playsatan and Johnny will be dribbling when they see it Enjoy yer shots Davie.

Mike M Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Looking nice, just got wife's STI from John at S&S and he is doing some very good deals just now!! (Love it in white!!)
gus the bus Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 White is deffo the best colour! ........and they wheels suit it perfectly
terzo neil Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 checked s ans s website, notice there is a nice p1 on there
mctwistuk Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 nice car dave. White is defo the best colour.
bogie Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 checked s ans s website, notice there is a nice p1 on there Aye, I was teasing trying to swap my MY07 Wagon PPP for it
jim dbm Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 one of the all time ugliest cars. imo of course.
empty_heed Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 very nice although i don't think the back lights do it any justice, a wee bit of tint would mellow them out
drb5 Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 Lol at Davie, Colin and Jimser. Our options were the pearl white, or black and hee-haw else. Soon as i seen the white, it looked the part and looks MUCH better in the flesh, as you simply can't see the colour properly in pics. Back lights aren't too bad in the flesh either......if you don't look right at them. I have seen someone in the US paint the inside of them red in area's and it looked good, but dunno if it really warrants it. Only just found out last night the main differences in power to the STi. This has 251hp + 287 lbs ft, the STi has 297hp + 300 lbs ft, but the STi weighs another 110 kgs ontop of the WRX-S' weight, so power-to-weight is only different by 15hp. I reckon the torque is higher than the STi's in regards to weight? Sad i know, but i had bugger all to do last night.
braveheart Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 It is growing on me ah you defo picked the best colour

I saw it on Spicey's website the other week and went back a couple of days later for another look, it's actually the best hatch WRX colour by a mile, enjoy it!
drb5 Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 Thanks, we will. Actually going back down on Saturday, as it should have had an STi front lip fitted too it, but they forgot. I might get lucky and they'll fit it for me. lol
frank c Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Aye , no bad I suppose .................well, if your into that kinda thing Love the colour though
