Fair enough - but the figures are still the same for WRX or UK300.

Bloody Newton - what has he ever done for us....

Anyone know the bhp/torque figures for PPP on a new model WRX?
I've got a test drive in a WRX on Wednesday and the swines only have one with the PPP stuff (yeah right). Obviously a ploy to make me want it... missus.

Weird. I will investigate further.

Investigation complete - both the website and the brochure quote the same bhp/torque for the WRX and the 300. 218bhp and 292lb respectively.
What's going on... ?? So does the UK300 have the same power and you just get gold wheels and twin headlights for yer cash....

The standard uk car will push out exactly the same power as the older models, 218ps 214lbs of torque, not even the new sti pushes 290lbs of torque
