been looking at buying a scooby but they seem quite common so looked at a legacy but stumbled across a nice forester s.do the handle and go like a scoob?any common issues?

 

They are a 'Scoob' as for handling and performance being the same as an Impreza, I would have to say not.

Might be wrong, but the laws of physics will have a rather large say in the matter.

 

Depending what you are driving now, chances are a fozza will seem fast. You can do a million things to them but as a rule if its a standard Forester and a stander WRX the Impreza would handle, perform better.
Having said that you can sweet STi Foresters, they engines can be tuned like Imprezas, all in all they are a good buy and not as common.

If you need a mint unmolested Impreza, baring stone chips from the motorways looks like its just from the factory give me a shout!!!!
