Default Classic V's Newage

Given the amount of stick New Age Imprezas get on here (I haven't driven any), I'd be interested to see a comparison of overall performance.
My Classic WRX should do 0-60 in 5s, same as the new STI (which I realise would be quicker at high speeds).
I'd be interested to see lap times either for UK circuits or Nurburgring, for say Classic WRX vs new WRX, or STI comparisons.
I realise the new ones are a fair bit heavier, but the STI are pretty powerful, and the there's been years of suspension tweaks.
Anyone have any figures / experience?

It's been done before mate. If you compare like for like (as far as this is possible) Differences in 0-60 marginal, differences in 0-100 more prounced etc....

Yes, but what about lap times, where weight and chassis have a big effect?
