If Subaru Didn't Exist What Would You Drive

[diazamet]

The Americans seem to favour cars of a German persuasion, how about you guys?

Personally, I've always quite fancied a Nissan Skyline R32 GTR.

Quite fancied an R33 version myself. Was actually a Corrado VR6 I was looking for before I bought the first scoob, but one test drive of the Turbo and I was hooked

Don't know what I'd pick right now if I was made to get shot of the STi and replace it with something else... theres not a lot else that can do everything it can (inc carrying a family of four plus luggage) for the money that it costs. Obviously you have things like RS4s and 911s (just squeeze the kids in ) but they aren't yet at the prices that the scoobs are. I still seem to have the opinion (rightly or wrongly) that even Evos are more expensive to run long term (but that may be crap).

I think I would go back and have a M5 or something similar as I really do enjoy them. Only reason I have not got one is that I have the scooby.

although wouldnt mind a charade GTTI for a track toy.. as something different.

[Maxxed_Ross]

I'd still have my MG ZS. It was a fantastic car and I only sold it because someone offered me good money for it out of the blue

I'd like a Skyline R34, but the insurance would be crazy!

[stum450n]

Mustang GT or Mach 1

[Woodcote]

R26.R or Clio Trophy

i had a 172 and pound for mile for fun a cracking little car

... also a good community with plenty of trackday action offered by the club

or ... an Elise or Exige

If I had the dosh I would go for this family car!

Audi Rs6 Avant 76k Ouch

4WD, 572BHP, big boot, not a BMW.

Cheers

Had an S6 Avant before (4.2 V8), and although it was nippy, it was crap on back roads... too nose heavy, plus I didn't get on with the semi auto gearbox at all. The RS4 is meant to be better handling, and it's possible that the newer RS6/S6 is a lot better than the older ones as well.

[tbtstt]

At risk of being lynched here...

An Evo *awaits incoming flying objects*. Or a Civic Type R.

Or if money was no object then an Audi RS4!

[scooby-22]

I couldn't imagine life without the beast, i honestly to not know what i would have or even see myself in!

If money was no object then defo an Audi RS4

[scoob fae ork]

Think i would be a new shape Audi RS4 failing that a Noble M12

Skyline woudl be tempting but it'd probably be a Toyota MR2 (mk2), Celica or Supra for me... Or possibly Honda S2000, but woudl prefer a proper folding solid roof!

But if I was to move away from SUbaru today? RS4 or possibly Black Mustang (Watching too much Knight Rider....) or S2000 ..

I was so close to getting a skyline before I settled on the subaru, as I thought it would make a better "everyday" car - which it has. Personally its the R32 gtr for me, still think after all these years they can look amazing.

[matt78]

If a miracle happens-Ferrari 430 Scuderia

If I came into a reasonable of money one day-Audi RS4

With my current dosh-Evo 6

[p060064h]

An evo is the only option

[windy1945]

i would have a mini GT 1275 with a fully race prepared engine had a love affair with them since i was a wee boy or money no object a AC cobra, Shelby GT500 or Dodge Charger

Edited March 6, 2009 by windy1945

[gc8-r]

have to be one of the family(nissan any day)

alot of people like the rs4-6 maybe a r8

you would change your mind after working with them (or driving them)as i have

we stock them and good but not that good (novelty wears off )but still quick as @*@*...

lets get old school like the 1275 mini

renault 5 tttuuurrrbooo anyday (lowered any tuned)beat most things on the road still

if not i'd have another pulsar gti-r

Wasn't KITT a Firebird Trans Am? Agreed though, classic Mustangs are damn fine motors!
