I went for the WRX because of the kids but if you don't need 4 doors go for the GT4

People say the gt4's are slower because of the weight issue they are heavier.

If your interested in a wrx import i might sell mine it would be for a good price pm me your email address and i will send you pics and info.

Thanx.

13.1s 106mph my gt4 ;-)

std cars will do high 13s 100mph 1/4m. (st205) not as heavy as previous gt4s, but still 1400kg. great cars!

Im pretty sure UK car does not mean english car. Whenever something in UK is good its english whenever something Scottish is good its British. Or maybe thats only when watching the BBC.

The good ole beeb once referred to Colin Mcrae as English and Richard Burns as British when Mcrae was winning an event.

Great cars, solid engines.

Nice handling, good driving position.

If GT4's were still in production, I would have bought one instead of my STi.
