hello there.

after selling my 95 wrx imp im now in the market for a newer scoob. how many of you have owned a classic and got your self a bugeye and been disapointed with it. if you have why is this? and also what didnt you like about it? ive got around 10k to spend. if you own a bugeye can you list the bad points and also the good points.

cheers gaz.

 

Bad Points:

The slating you get for owning a Bugeye.

Good points:

There relativly comfy whilst still being hair raising when you want it to be.

You can take the inlaws out in it and they think your very mature and respectable, Then you drop them off i tear up the B roads just like the classic can.

 

I loved my old MY02 StiPPP to bit's

As said above far more comfortable on long journeys than classic's but they are noticable heavier. You really need one with 300+ bhp IMHO

when i first got my bug WRX it was dissapointing, after the Civic type R i chopped in for it.

Decat and a few other things later, love it to bits.

Will be 400+ this time next month so should be fun

Exactly,as standard there a just OK do a few small mods and there much better.I bought mine after having a my98 2000 turbo that was running about 260bhp and when i first bought the standard bug eye i was a bit gutted with the speed and thought I'd made a mistake but after a few mods I'm lovin it and it seems to drive better than the classic at high speeds

 

I have a bugeye Sti with full decat, HKS Hyper, Ecutek, Exedy clutch and I can honestly say its great! Ugly car but who cares when your in it runting around. Mine has never missed a beat and is up for sale in a month for around the 10k mark! Running 335/325 at scoobyclinic.

 

thanks for all your coments.

ninjaguppy are you local to notts????

 

I have a Bugeye also, never dreamt of going for a classic, didn't want the classic image.

Full decat, APS SR40 Turbo, ECU TEK 3 remap and I love it. 330 bhp. 6 speed box, Intercooler water spray, shift light all feel special and the interior is much better than a classics. You get stuff like AVCS etc also, gotta be the STi though!

Mine is also for sale though, looking for £9000. Got more to spend now!
