Looks really nice Steve, pictures taken at Bluewater, I sadly know the carpark well.

Always thought though "Once you had black there is no going back"?

LOL, I do love them in Black and another option is an RB320, but this does look nice in white too.

Very nice, probably my ideal combination of colour, variant, and spec. If its as good as it looks I would take that over a RB any day. Price is a little top heavy, but it would cost allot more if you went to do it yourself, and cars of that spec don't come along often.

That's allot of torques and BHP and will feel VERY rapid on the road or track for that matter.

Very nice. I wasn't brave enough to order mine in white and regretted it ever since.

Go for it Steve, I don't think it's too expensive even though it's not JDM.

The owner of that car is a 100% genuine bloke, a real enthusiast.

Whoever buys that is going to get a fantastic car.

Nice, but 'ALOT' of money for a car that looks pretty standard from the outside.
Spending 16K on a Hawkeye I would want it to be shouting look at me I'm special.

I like the fact that it looks standard, but agreed, £16k is alot for a hawk, especially as I sold mine for alot less than that 18 months ago, though this one has an awesome spec.

I still love the look of the hawk. Its taken 18 months but I'm really starting to miss my old one now. I've been waiting to see when Subaru are bringing the 'all new' sti to the UK as I can do that through work when the golf goes back which has good benefits for me, but it isnt looking like its going to be before 2015 for a new one. I personally still prefer the hawks and blobs to the hatch. If I got a hawk again it would need to be well sorted.

Lovely scoob that, white hawks just look stunning imo. Price might be a bit high, but if its mint, there's not many around so sure someone will pay it if they have the cash burning a hole in their pocket.

Well at least it sounds like you know 100% what you want to get steve,that white one does look very nice as well.
