Just recieved an email from Litchfield's and it contains details of yet another development.

Not content with bringing out the new T25, there is now the track focused rocketship the Litchfield Spec C GP Edition. Spec below.

September 1st sees the launch of our latest Impreza derivative a car that celebrates our continuing success on track.
Focused squarely at the track enthusiast with everything that is needed to make it a winner straight out of the box. This exciting new model features the same chassis as our proven race car and uses the 3-way racing AST dampers that have successfully competed at Tuner GP, Time Attack and the Nurburgring 24hr race. It is designed to allow it's owner to drive to and from a growing number of events both fun and competitive. But uniquely this is still a practical saloon capable of coping with the rigors of family life and day to day motoring.
Based on Subaru's exceptional lightweight Spec C, a car which already laps the Nurburgring as quickly as a GT3 Porsche, but the GP Edition takes it to a whole new level.

Best to pay the extra (I wish) for the T25 as it is the more potent car??
Graham

 

Agreed

 

agreed also but the cost will put a lot of people off especially if there is a special track edition spec c for £5,000 less

I also would prefer the T25. However, if you add the 6 pot brakes, 18" wheels/tyres and the 3-way AST you'd be looking at an extra £4k (ish) on top.

 

£35,000 for an Impreza,


with the money i have just lost on a UK WRX in 1 year, i dread to think what you would loose on this machine......



money no object however, look like a dam good car

Was up at Litchfields On Tues, Looked damm fine even at 35k.

 

Now, if he'd sell me the new T25 for £34,995 I'd have one.

 

Dam better make sure my Pockets and wallet are completely empty the next visit to Litcho's LOL

Tony

I wouldn't mention on an open forum that you're visiting Litchfields soon. Iain will be prepared to sell one of your kidneys on eBay, in payment for your next round of mods. He'll know you agree when you see the wares.

 

I'm hoping to spot the T25 this saturday.

Maybe Iain will allow me to hill climb it at Prescott?

Maybe?

Graham

 

Nah he's already sold one of them fpr the T20 but apparantly you can survive with just the one lung LOL

Tony

 

I want a GP edition.


Andy

 

Me to. I saw it being born last week. Love the brakes. Make my new Brembos feel like lead. How light are those Porsche calipers? Must be the ceramic pistons! But he AP disks are seriously light as well.

How to get £35K???? Can you resell Russian brides?

 

Was at Litchfeilds on Wed .........It appears that this GP editon is quicker round a track than the type25

Type 25 wins it for me but at £44k fullyloaded
