i just read that it might have the engine out of the Mclaren SLR in it, so that would explain it all...

V8 SuperCharged

It was so simple in the end.

You two are enjoying yourselves aren't you?

Honestly though some of the comments you read on those websites are hilarious, like the one from the American STi owner saying how he would school the rusty little tin can, he was so upset that his invincible Subaru, the fastest point to point car in the Universe, might have been shown up by a fwd hatchback.

Most cost-effective modification for going faster? - Track lessons.

Subaru owners need to be reminded that they haven't made an Impreza with the power-to-weight of the Group B hatchbacks of the 80's. They should watch a quarter mile drag race between a 205 T16 Evo 2 and a current WRC Impreza, then they might shut up.
