You'd need a lot of modding to "beat" a standard A45; even more to worrys Ted's one.

Of course a standard wrx would get whooped but scoobyclinic seem to have done a good job of mine

That's it, I'm selling my GT-R and getting a 04 Wagon as they seem to be the fastest car on the block at the moment

Those three are leagues behind a GTR.

I've had a neck and neck blast with a new V8 Vantage; same 0-60, 0-100 and heavier. But a GTR would leave me for dead. As it would with anything short of a completely mental hypercar.

I think that unless you're pushing over 400bhp with seriously choice chassis mods, your head is in the clouds.

I can support my experience with facts, lap times etc. Can you honestly support yours?! A GTR is a sub 3s to 60 monster. It defies physics.
I don't really like them much (too big, too shouty) but there are few cars faster. You're basically saying your old, pretty low rent Scooby is hypercar quick?


Errrrmmmmm....

If he launches it is 3 seconds.
We both pulled away from lights fast but not flooring it and would say we both changed into 2nd at the same time,then floored it and and about 50mph i had to hit the brakes!

Well one thing I will say in his favour is it's all well and good having 600bhp but it's getting that power down and being able to translate it into forward movement as well as being able to control it whilst doing so, nice and easy on a dry grippy track but a different story on greasy roads with cold sumer tyres.

I suspect a 4wd GTR which is stuck to the road would do a pretty good job of it. You'd need one hell of an Impreza to be quicker on any road (except a narrow one; the GTR has size against it)!
