if u r using the 'company car' to do a lot of miles i cant see that a spec C would be a good choice as u will not have the comfort and less harsh suspension as the sti or the WRX

but then, wot a fantastic time u can have doing all those miles!!!

motorways, who needs them when there are country lanes and ur in a scooby

In next months Evo "Car of the Year" the Spec C wins hands down in the 1st stage in Scotland. Dry roads and the presence of some Italian exotica bump it down in the final leg in Italy but one of the guys said, "Without any exageration, this has to be the fastest car on the planet."

Have a look here
