    My quattro... or any ur-quattro for that matter

    scoobies and evo's are far to common, and just don't have the road presence

    Mitsubishi Evo VI - 8.25
    Subaru Impreza Turbo - 8.37
    Old figures admittedly but the evo's still a good margin ahead and only a few seconds behind a 520bhp Ruf 911

    heh what trig said really. Evo4 would make me happy. Butuz has it right that the scooby is just the next upgrade for the poser.

    I agree with much of what has been said, the EVO does have more presence etc however Im not sure about the chav upgrade comment about the Scooby! Im not a chav, never have been never will be and I've had one. Got it cause I always wanted one and Ive got to say it was a fantastic car to drive. The only fault was that as standard it could out handle its own performance and would have needed a fair bit of money spending to give it the beans it deserved ( ask J4mes how much his father-in-law has spent on his!) To that end as a drivers car I think the EVO would win in my view. (but you cant beat the understated looks of the origional (and best!) Scoobys)

    Scooby. Although their current styling seems to be getting BIGGER (ie lights) and worse.

    The Evo is just overpriced, I still personally prefer the Evo VI in terms of looks over all the others.

    The fastest, nicest car i have been in. Is an Skyline R34. Cost the guy £34,000, his wheels....£2,000 each (gold plated). Took me for a spin in it, 120MPH down the other side of the road. Grin factor : could of fit a litre bottle in my mouth side ways.

    Aslo been in Michaels brothers Subaru. VERY nice rumble!

    But i still love the Evo's, my dream car. And one day i will get one!

    Evo. New 400 bhp VIII does 0-60 in 3.6 seconds. Leave it.

    Yeah, but doesn't it need an oil change every 1500 miles, and a full engine rebuild every 20,000 or so? For that money you might as well get a Skyline GTR and tune it up to 450BHP- just as quick, and a far less stressed engine.

    LOL of course it does it is developing 200 bhp per litre. That's not really the point of the car tho.

    Well, I just can't see that it's worth £15,000 over a FQ330, or an equivalent Impreza. The little fins behind the rear window don't do it for me TBH.

    As already stated though, I'm a chronic Subaru tart, never to be converted.
