Hi guy's I am looking at getting a new car, I have always been a lover of the Subaru impreza however they are becoming so common that I want something a little special and I really like the evo's, I am having a bit of trouble deciding which one is best though so any input would be great

All i can say to you is do as much home work as possible then and make sure you have a very big fat wallet at all time's as that will be your best and only Friend:shock: With out this Forget it:)

No
All depends on your budget to start with.
Buy the newest low mileage one you can afford.

Keep them serviced and they will be fine.
Another thing i always do is buy a bog standard car and get the tuning done afterwards

You will here horror stories whatever make you buy.
Yes some repaires are expensive.
Spend around 12 -14k on a good 8 or 9 and it should be a good motor.

What your budget . Love a kit it up Subaru blob eye but in my mind alway would fear engine going , I had the same choices and went for Evo 7 . If you go for a Subaru depending what your budget go for Sti pro dive. Rb32 are really nice but Evo have more power and can tune them up more for less. Easily take up to 400 with out change Internel and can easily handle the power. I've had 2 wrx, really like then put Evo was the right choise for me .
