Kinja'd!!!

I keep having problem deciding my next car. This time I think I want *another* Subaru.

I will be modding which ever one I get. Same treatment for both (turbo, sti 6 speed, r180)

I love the GC8 body style, LOVE

I like the bugeye the best out of the 3 GD style that they make. (I don’t mind a 08+hatch but the price is just out of wack, so not considering a 08+ at this point)

However the aftermarket support is so much better for the GD, chassis is better all around.

I have had both before. I still can’t decide this time around. Welp Oppo

Hard to find one that’s cheap, doesn’t have rust, 4 door, 5 speed...

Me too. I’m working on getting my wife to agree to a bugeye. I’m also always keeping an eye open for a 92X turbo.

See i think that 04-05 look like an evolved GC more than the bugeye. But GC coupe all day like you even had to ask.

Had one, want a sedan this time around. Sedan suspension is easier to mod

I can’t stand those blobeye headlights I don’t know why.

To me bugeye > Hawkeye > blobeye

I love bugeyes... I still think it’s the best looking of the WRXs, (though not the best car.) My bro-in-law had one of the previous style RS2.5 coupes - nice, but kind of plasticky interior.

I had a saabaru. Was awesome. If I am going the weird route I would get a baja turbo this time lol

I like the 4 door 2.5rs

I think those body line looks the best, follow by the bugeye

Oh, i didn’t realize they were different. I get that. The biggest annoyance with my car is that it’s rear supsension is different than the Eclipse/Talon suspension.

Yeah but look at it! Those are the best-looking subarus they built

I want 4 door

That’s another reason I want the bugeye. The chassis is much stiffer

I would definitely opt for the better chassis

That’s what make the decision difficult... Better chassis / easier upgrade or better look
