Nice Scooby.

Rather newer than my beloved wagon:
I have the original STi, a version 1, (only 200 made). This is us doing some track time last summer and although it's ancient and completely unmodified mechanically it did me proud.

Thank you and very nice ride yourself. Good to see a fellow subaru owner here. You should get yourself a spec C RA living over there in the UK haha. It will cost you an arm and a leg and a fish collection probably.

I dont even think that is an escalade. Framewise it looks more like a chevy s10 or something along those lines that has bodywork molded onto it and emblems. Its not my style but it looks like a lot of work went into it.

The escalade pic is a chevy with escalade decals and emblems along with some body work obviously.....It was just their at the car show-----It's certainly not my style either....

Those ram bars look mean. I'd hate to get plowed by that thing. It would be game over.

Here's a few:

My old EG6 Civic, B18C-R motor + close ratio gearbox. 14.0 @ 145kmh, and so much fun on a twisty road. I miss it every once in a while...

Our 'practical 4-door family car', 1996 Integra Type R

Our 2001 NZ-new Integra Type R (one of only two red ones in the country, only 7 made in total!), owned it for a month before deciding it was too much money to have sitting in the garage depreciating.

Dads 1954 Swallow Doretti, just finished a 5 year ground-up restoration a few months ago. Pictured with two out of the 8 total in New Zealand. There was only ever ~350 made, and I think there's around 50-80 world-wide now.

Wow a Doretti. Very nice. The type R is pretty bad too. There arent many FWD vehicles that I would love to have have but the integ type r has to be one. Thanks for sharing.

They're cool little cars, a lot of people are really surprised by how much fun they are despite being fwd and naturally aspirated. Our red one was traded in at a Porsche/Audi dealership and when we went to see it (about 30 minutes after it was traded in!) these guys who sell Porsches and Audi's for a living were all taking it for a thrash because they're so much fun!!
I would liked to have kept it and just done a few simple things (full Mugen intake and header/exhaust, good suspension and some nice rims, volk, work, ssr or similar) but I'd only just sold the civic and really needed a break from wasting money on cars. No real regrets in selling it, although I am being tempted by the silver 98 spec ITR I see on a yard every time I go to the LFS....
