Okay, wel where shall I start!

The WR1:

Pro's: Well I went from a standard Bug WRX the this and the improvement in this was night and day. The handling was superb, the interior was slightly better and MPG was good (read my old threads). Lovely car, easy to maintain and attracted alot of attention at shows.

Con's: Well apart from the colour, which is personal preference is not to everyones taste. Also, as it isn't a widetrack JDM it does get alot of knockers!

The Spec C:

Pro's: From the WR1 to this it seemed like I wasn't driving a Subaru but somthing else, in the end i was running 329/348 and as it's light as a feather you realy could notice how easy it was to drive fast. With coilovers on it was even more immense. Very reliable car and a pleasure to drive.

Con's: Long journeys weren't great fun due to no sound proofing but there were few and far between, I only covered 1600 miles in 15 months so it as just a weekend blast car.

22B

Pro's: Well it's a different beast!! Weighing in at just over a 1000kg and running upwards of 450bhp!!!!!

Con's: Well, I've only had it 5 days and driven it 200 miles back from mid wales and can't find any con's yet.

Love the 22B Huzzy.

The only negative thing about the 22B is that Ryan Giggs owned one and apparently he's a c*nt.
