Default What model is this and is it worth it?

Hi there
I am looking for some general help here!
I am looking to buy my 1st subaru as a fun car for the weekend (so to speak)
I have found this on a certain site,
But i am getting confused with all the different models
this is advertised as a:

1998 SUBARU IMPREZA TURBO 2000 AWD PRODRIVE PPP 265BHP


Is this a WRX? or what very confused!!

if you search on the "e***" site for this, you could prob let me know a little more about it

many thanks in anticipation

cheers Mag 6

is there any difference in performance, and could this be further upgraded to get more BHP?

I have seen some with 300BHP is this poss with this model?

what would be the next best thing to do to get any more power?

thanks again!

If this car only has the ppp then power is gonna be closer to 240bhp. 300 bhp is possible but only with a turbo swap - TD04 onboard iirc on a 98
