Wrx's are jap imports but with a difference.these differences are listed below,

More bhp
Climate control/Air con standard
Rear wiper
Colour coded door handles and mirrors
Map reading lights
Alloy bonnet and boot
Alloy wishbones, just like the ones prodrive will sell you for £500

Two items you dont get are headlamp washers and a bright switch to dim your dash lights.

hope this helps !

Another thing I forgot is the mirros fold back against the bodywork to stop them getting hit.

Claimed more bhp, slighlty increased tendancy to blow up, as they really need Super Unleaded all the time.
The alloy arms can be bought from MRT for about £160 each + postage.
The jap cars have shorter gearing, better seats ( early UK cars had pathetic seats ) )
Still, a good Jap car is a better buy, but good ones are harder to find.
