I'm a Subaru nutter my past 4 cars have been STi's and currently i have a -06 STi with 320 horses and 450 nm torque (332 lbs/ft?)
I do some racedriving as well, a cheap form of rallycross with an old legacy turbo. Not a very serious raceform but very much fun!
so any kindred spirits out there?

Brixx: You are most welcome over in the winter if you want to play around a bit with 4wd in the snow. I go on regular trips to mainland Europe, either buying cars or some other business-y reason but i wouldn't mind seeing what low weight can do on ze autobahn! I did at one time own a Fiat Uno turbo tuned to 140 hp. it was a fun little car (approx 800kg)

I love screaming past one of those signs that tells you to slow down to 25 on a turn at around 55. You just have to know the road.

On the flip side, here in the States we never see a lot of the kick *** stuff built over seas. I would love to have the Ford Falcon xr6 from Austrailia.

But we don´t see those either! The biggest ford we got except the SUVs is the Mondeo... :-/
I am not even sure if you know what they sell here... Ford KA which is a product of the cooperation with FIAT. :-/
