This is my 1st performance car and man am I buzzing.
I have come across many people who push me down the road, this is a car I need to drive sensibly.
Beleive me when I say it's like learning to drive all over.

First off I'm no speed hungry nutter who's into street racing.
On my travels yesterday I came up behind a subaru(I thought it was an wrx but my mate thought it was an STI)
I'm a strange lad to say the least I hate following the same vehicle for a prolonged period of time, it just gets boring.
So I'm now bored with the site of this purple subaru, time to go past.
As I pulled out I could see the black stars suck to the road (he booted it).
I hesitated and thought damn, I can pass this.
I got out by the side of him, changed gear (as I love my dump valve going off as I get by the side of em) and past I went.
When I got to the services, I saw the car parked up near mine.
Sat in my car this bird comes over and says I really upset her bloke by overtaking him, as he tried to keep me out there.
I just shrugged and said, lucky I got a EVO then, lol.
She was alright with it.
As I drove off I really wanted to acknowledge him but held back, would've seemed like P1$$ taking!
Anyways, so what power can be seen from one of these suabarus?
(bearing in mind I'm not slating subarus, Since passing my test all I've ever owned was subarus, until 6 days ago) No going back now though.

Hmm, your very first post. Maybe I took it the wrong way?
Do I at any point say I am bored? No! If I wanted to say I was sick or bored I would have mate! I was making the point that I was tired of reading the same old "I whooped a st,evo,rs, etc etc" thread.....With the thread starter trying to disguise it as something else. When you have a bit of time in on the forum!!! then perhaps you'll know what I mean. Until then Wind your feckin neck in!!!!

Good afternoon Misty.
Unfortunately I have a lot to do today so I wont be able to play.
However I see there are a couple of guys on here for you to argue with.
Have a good day.

Unfortunately, post count doesn't mean **** if all you post is ****
I generally don't reply to things that don't interest me but I am getting tired of people (like your good self) ranting at somebody for posting something that they don't like. If you don't like it/ tired of it/ bored/ sick etc, then don't bother replying.

Jap, i made the mistake of posting that i had a race a week or so ago and was greeted by several replies by the normal "Bloody idiot" replies that you have. I hope somewhere in all this garbage someone has answered your question. Funny thing is its usually people that boast how much BHP their highly modified scoob's have that attack you for using the power you have. either they are ....
A. Lying, their car is as standard as they come
B. Lying, they actually use it and are under some drunken dillusion if they posted they broke the speed limit the poilce will be on their doorstep next morning without their Ip address, Registration or any concrete evidence.
C. Too scared - More money than sense.
Well done Jap. You have a quick car, and you used it. I personally would rather have a forum with people just like you and me. Afterall would Impreza owners have a better name if they were overtook by GSI's or if they were known to be prepared to take on a challenge.

I don't understand the woman comment, I assume it is some attempt at humour

You obviously have no idea where your bollocks are, otherwise you might put that 360BHP to some use. Maybe one day you'll find the rest of your manhood, put it to use and stop posting such ****. Tell me is your life so terrible you have to sit on this site, waiting for people to post that they put their foot down so you can patronise them.
