In fact no. The only road test figures I had to hand. 16.9secs 0-100mph is hardly flattering for the bug/wrx. All from the same source, so not a bit from here and there.
And if I was to get the fastest recorded figures for classics you would probably poo yourself
Is that a sore 'L' I see on your forehead

Corner! 
This thread is irretrievably muppety. After numerous unsuccessful attempts to divert the flow of discourse, firstly into being on-topic, then secondly into being completely off-topic, I pronounce it to be wibble, with an aftertaste of hatstand.

Geek: No? you've gone mighty quite since I have proved that your 60-100mph formulae is pants and so too are your comments about brakes and a Clio being faster
Dont worry geek. Victory tastes much sweeter once you have tasted defeat.
Knowledge is power. Back up what you say with facts.

I still theinnk once moving a Clio 182 is faster than a new age WRX.
You will not change my mind on that - I had a WRX, wy wife has the Clio..so I talk from experience.
You can put all the figures you want on here - nothing will change my mind.
You have mentioned a couple of times about the braking now - yet I have seen "evidence"........
I still absolutely think that Subaru brakes are the worst part of the car.
Anyway....to be honest you have insulted me a few times now, and clearly think you are the "winner" - so I'll todddle off, revert back to my normal username, and save 'gb' for another 15 pager.
It been fun.

Yeah Autocar drove it into a brick wall to get good times so I could prove you wrong
I would be suprised if you've even driven a wrx as you would know that the brakes are fine.
Take care
