"There have been no power changes to the STI's aluminum powerplant, which still boasts an impressive 300 bhp at 6000 rpm with 300 lb.-ft. of torque, more than you ever really need on a daily basis anyway"

huh?

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR Subaru Impreza WRX STI
List price $35,189 $32,995
Price as tested $36,584 $33,660

poor americans - they have to pay the equivalent of almost £18,000 for an MY06 STi from a dealer.

Grrr

and they pay **** all for "gas", what is it 20p/ltr?

not sure i could cope with 55mph though. mind you with the cash you save on the car & fuel, they're be a nice wad saved up for speeding fines.
