But Andy has long been the fastest manual trans Subaru in the World and probably will hold the title for a long time to come.. The car Easystreet are talking about was clearly an automatic. Even the Rigolis's gave up on manual once they dipped into the 9's An auto would instantly make it faster...and in many ways easier. Which is why the yanks love autos. They havent a clue how to drive a manual and only care about straight lines. | |

Not sure if the classic kept the tag WRX when it was an STI Type R. And that US car is just a WRX STI lol.. They can be very pedantic. Then there is quickest and fastest too. Nobody has come close to Andy though with a manual box. |
