Are you sure you I.D'd the car correctly? Check this out: there is a new Subaru called a WRXSTi that is slicker than owl poop. It has an intercooled turbo 2 liter 4cyl running.... crap, I hate to type this.. my house is directly behind a Subaru dealership....276 hp @ 6400 rpm!!!! There is an article about it in the May Car and Driver magazine. The claim is 60 mph in 4.8 sec and low 13 sec 1/4mi times bone stock (6 spd shifter too). This new WRX has 50 more horsepower and 58 more pound feet of tourque than the standard WRX. You can spot them by their gold wheels. Oh yeah, and off the line he'll have the advantage of all wheel drive. Damn, I'll have to face these guys every day, they constantly drive through my neighborhood on the way to the gas station to fill up the new cars. Now I'm really going to have to get a supercharger! I'm not sure if these models are out yet, but at least you've got some info now to save face with.
