Yup, one for all you Spec C owners
The mighty Spec C is quicker in 6th gear than a UK Spec WRX through the gears And even though it was close, the "C" was pulling away up hill
Damn those nice people at Subaru in Japan know how to build cars dont they

Your spec c would be even quicker if you drove it off a cliff.

the only thing it could beat was a large, fat WRX

Is there a day goes by where you don't mention your Spec C?

Are the 1st 5 gears too hard to engage Tony. Perhaps you ought to get that fixed

I hear the Spec C RA is the daddy now, you do have an RA Nurburgring don't you Tony?

Nope not one of those, just an MY03 17 inch car, though there is a very nice Spec C type RA here>>> www.just-sports.org
As for v modified cars, LOL! come on peeps, what im showing you is how flexable the JDM engine is now, you all say more bhp, but thats not what you need, this is about torque and engine flexability, not 350+bhp, which btw is very cheap to get from one of these (seen one with 360+bhp and 400lbs of torque with just a remap and exhaust!! )
All those who think BHP is best, think again

The MY05 > Spec C Nurburgring Edition is the only new shape scooby I'd currently buy.

Amazing drive, no wonder Tony uses the exhaust pipe for marital stimulation!

Just a shame it looks bland (especially in white), but, never judge a book by the cover...
