Oh yes you're not wrong there.

An amazingly capable car with supercar performance for a bargain price. Love it. Want it.

I actually hate Subaru Imprezas but have to say I was very impressed with this one as it was very special indeed.

Yep.
Or like last season where they ran the cars around that track in north wales. We would have had an instant comaprison with everything else they have tested.

They also should have gone into more deapth as to what cosworth have done to the engine. Same with the usspension dont just show us a gold adjuster. This car is a lot lot more than just a well tuned Impreza

5th gear really is annoying for me. They have the cars I am interested in but leave me asking questions.

As a production car, its cheap.. and fantastic.

However, you could get a 22b, fit a 2.5 and suspension, gearbox etc.. and still have change.

And i know which i'd rather have.
