uhm not sure what market subaru was aiming this out, its pretty much a pointless endevour imho.
and contrary to popular belief they do not produce the flat four burble either.
123bhp and 9.1 0-60 i think, it most guises these days a classic impreza is usually a 300bhp rally monster. id hate to drive an 'impreza' that gets eaten by saxos, how embarassing.
if you really want an impreza wait until you can get insurance, they you can enjoy REAL subaru ownership not the mickey mouse variant.

Why would you want a Subaru for the way it looks?

XE Astra would wipe the floor with it, several times over.
Suppose it would sound nice with the right exhaust and it would handle better, but thats about it.
Oh and you could always make it look like a WRX or something.
Stick with the hunt for an Astra.

My astra wooped one. Not quick.
If you do get one, don't get a turbo bonnet. Coz you'll see threads up in here saying "i killed a scooby turbo today"
