Cutting people up etc. then even out of the car they are bulshy and up them selves..

No offence to anyone of course, I'm sure most of you SN members are not stereo typical Impreza drivers.



Cutting people up is very bad, i will agree with you there, but then sadly the rest of your post went to shi* mate....

Did you buy your impreza because it looks stylish and sleek? No, and if you did you need your eyes testing and fast. I bought mine because it is fast, and im not one to drive it everywhere at 45mph regardless of the speed limit, i will actualy go out and use it for all it can do, and why the hell shouldnt i.

Secondly, i have the prodive jacket, it doesnt make me ignorant nor does it make me cut other road users up. Granted you may have seen one, maybe two do that, but that doesnt warrant a sterreotype does it now. In fact i wouold say that the driver you have just described, with his jacket on, is more likley to be an enthusiast, and will be more inclined to wave at another driver.

Do you by any chance own a football shirt??? If so, does that mean that after you finish watching the match, you run down your local, get pi$$ed, smash an empty bottle and then proceed to stick it in the nearest persons face???? You know, like the bad 1 or 2% of football fans do on a regular basis?????



Come on, put your brain into gear before the fingers please

My first Impreza Turbo hit the road 12 years ago last Friday (07 April). Back then, it was unusual to see a Subaru, let alone an Impreza. It was fun to wave at other owners and most waved back. I'm now on No 7 and with so many around now, I don't see it as a big deal anymore. I see more Imprezas than I do Saab 9-5 Estates (my other car). Saab drivers never wave!

I rarely wave now and am rarely waved at, particularly by so called Classic owners.

Cheers (older, occasional suit wearing Scooby driver)

PS I live near Darlington, travel through Teesside to work in N Yorks every day - Crystal Grey 05 STi UK PPP (one of those "funny coloured new age STis"...?)

Have to say I get a wave from everyone here in Somerset, but then we all drive around at a lazy 30mph chewing on a piece of straw. Hence we have plenty of time to work out what's happening
