I too have been watching that RA bug, Had a bugeye before and went back to a classic but there's something about the white ones that draws me back!!

Also the Prodrive Bugeye is tugging at me at the moment!

As you see by this http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...o/DSC_6312.jpg I have 2 Subaru's, the quickest, best handling one is the white one, and its pretty standard
