That 'illusion' paint job isn't very good, it looks like a bag of crap from all angles from what I can tell

I previously refrained from making a derogatory comment on Mr Imprezas car. I stepped back, decided to see it from the "individual" and "I`ve got ***** driving this one-off car" angles.
Unfortunately, I cannot get past the fact that it`s hideous, looks like a chavs dream, is definitely lacking in any style or taste, and have to conclude that I cannot believe anyone would spend money making it look like that. Maybe Stevie Wonder bodyshop Ltd wasn`t the best choice in hindsight

Of course there is nothing wrong in saying you don't like it but it's the derogatory and spiteful tone that these messages seem to be flung at members that's all wrong.

After all, why do the mods of a car that doesn't belong to you make you so cross and vehement? So you like the styling and performance of one type of Subaru. Others like the styling and performance such as Mr Impreza has posted here. That doesn't make it or him wrong - it shows the true diversity of the marque and of those that own it. 99% of owners are guilty of aftermarket mods; whether they're cool and classy, odd and quirky - why does it matter so much to you that it makes you all spit feathers? Personally, I'm all for individualism and personality. All hail those with individuality.

... how is it tarring anyone with any brush? What a ridiculous statement. And it's not been utterly ruined at all.

How is it ridiculous to say that cars like that don't bring the rest of us down? Look at the bad image that novas, corsas and saxos have. The impreza is going the same way and it is, therefore, our duty to have a go at these tasteless, feeble-minded individuals whenever they poke their heads above the parapet.

Absolutely correct And then when you put it up on a public forum for show, expect people to "stamp" their personalitys on the topic too.

conformity ... wheres the Punk spirit, Bubba? lol. I totally agree that ANY marque can be spoilt by covering it in double sided tape and ram raiding the local Halfords branch , but for someone to put on a 'ring sticker or to have a 'different' paint job than those that come out the box.. FFs .. its like going back to Henry Ford and the saying '' you can have any colour you like, as long as its BLACK''..

It's not the colour that outrages me, particularly. It's the dog-rough mouldings and "everybody can be an off-the-shelf individual" lights.

And Henry Ford never actually said that. Except when he was hiring a gardener for Mrs Ford.

Oh mr impreza, im a dumb **** because i thought that was purple? Sorry i couldnt spout the paint code im fresh out of copies of revs. (Although the similarity is uncanny) I was just trying to make a rational point. I dont mind the insult however purely on the ground it is very unlikely id be sourcing input from you when it comes to an impreza.

Well, as we're all making sweeping statements I'll add one... the majority of people in this thread are boring communists

Mr Impreza, get out whilst you're able... you don't need to absorb the venomous comments here to enjoy your car. So far there has been very little constructive criticism. And, as they say on Dragons Den, for that reason, I'm out!

what a pathetic *****r. you have you'r head way up you'r own ***
Pathetic? Posting a picture of your chavved-up POS car and then spitting the dummy when people dislike it is sad and pathetic. Your peurile name calling makes you look like and even bigger c*nt than your car does; and that takes some doing.

Fuck off to maxpower.co.uk where youll find more gob****e know-it-alls who'll tell you that your car is sick man; innit?. ScoobyNets already got all the bell-ends it needs.

****!

That's an unfair accusation GC8. To accuse him of spitting out his dummy when you've been guilty of the same childish mannerisms is rather hypocritical.

You're right about Scoobynet having all the bell-ends it needs though.. you don't have to look any farther than your own front door!

Correcting your post is beneath me.

Besides, we only want to understand what's been written, not enter you for some "linguist of Great Britain" competition. I notice that the cerebrally underendowed pick on that feature, instead of responding to the very salient points raised. I can only assume that their attention span is too brief to follow the argument.
