Advantages: Intresting history and good interviews Disadvantages: Dated, too padded out.
The SubaruImpreza story give a indepth reveiw of the 'classic' shape Impreza Turbo. It includes the history of the rally team and the development of the rally and road car. it also shows the options to enthusiasts of how they can modify their own cars and reviews the advantages of joining clubs and features lots of drivers on track days.
The DVD also features interviews with some of the most infulential people behind the development of the car.
It is an interesting DVD for Impreza fans with lots of history and Knowlage about the marque. However some parts are just included to fill space and the sound track, in my opinion, is very dated and a little annoying.
I'd recomend this DVD to any Hardcore Impreza fan, but it only covers the 'classic' shape and does show its age. ...
Advantages: Performance, handling, image and torque. Disadvantages: lack of interior comforts, styling (love or hate)
If speed is your thing then their are few choices that make sense on Britains roads. Sure there are alot of machines out there that absolutley fly when its sunny and dry but you could probably count on one hand the cars that can cope with average climate of pouring rain with brief periods of freezing ice and snow.
With permanent AWD and handling that could out turn a bobsled, the impreza is up at the top of that list. All the electronics that propel the car round corners (and hurt your face doing so) at speed all work to keep you out of those hedges and ditches.
On the motorway in 5th doing 70, plant your foot, wait a few seconds till you reach the boost and bang, your gone. Leaving most things 100 yards behind you with their ears ringing from the flat four boxer engine. Drop a gear and you'll cure that bad back with a lovely ...
Extroverts only i think....but the boy in side need apply also...
Well so much but so little.
The car is an Impreza WRX 03.
Had it second hand with 15k on the clock,paid 16k.
Intitially the turbo lag can be a problem if your not used to it,if your a driver its not a problem.
The buzz alone in the normal car is incredible but i will concentrate on mine which has the additional Prodrive performance pack added.
Benifits of this is that its Subaru approved and warranty is not affected.
Downside is it costs £1600!!!!
Arggghhh i know but do it.
The BHP is increased to 265ps (from 225)and torque goes up to a massive 348nm...ok figures but that means a 0-60mph of 4.8 seconds(official prodrive figures)Bye bye Porsche boxter turbos!
Also this takes it past the impressive STI but without all the garish gold wheels and huge spoiler ...
