Question

Hi All

I've been lurking here for a couple of months now and I have finally decided to register and ask a question.

Many people on here seem to want a higher level of performance from the cars you can currently buy. I am therefore asking what spec of car you would like to see from the factory.

400Bhp
2.5L engine
Twin scroll turbo
FMIC
18" wheels
6 pot brakes (F)
4 pot brakes (r)

Obviously, to make an Impreza of this spec it would also have a price hike over the current £25K.....What would you pay?

welcome Wobbly..
v dangerous first post but welcome to the board

400hp doupt they'd ever build a scoob to that spec. Its tough to build a mass producedm, reliable (read almost bullet proof) engine to that sort of power. Remember they'd have to supply with warrenty and it must survive the abuse on complete muppets who rag the living s**te out of it. Most people who even go over 300hp really know what there up too (or at least take advise from ppl who do) and care for there machines.

I doubt they could ever price it low enough for me because I'm poor and dont buy new cars

I knew it would be a dangerous question to ask as a first post, but I'm more interested in what you're perfect Impreza would be (obviously, we would all want 500Bhp, 19" wheels, the ability to do 200Mph with a cost price of £10K etc, but I was thinking of more realistic suggestions!).
