Yes,

PPP = Prodrive Performance Pack

Basically a Subaru approved performance enhancement pack that can be dealer fitted and maintain full Subaru warranty.

The car is totally standard apart from the PPP kit. Its just had four new wheels and tyres due to a previous owner being unable to park. Its got a tracker fitted etc. Think my first planned weekend away in it will be the Welsh GB rally. Plus i want to see what it goes like compared to Uncles FQ300. And as for the colour well i had a choice as there was a black one, they look nice for about ten minutes after you wash them. After that they look bad.
