JRC3,
My WRX is modded to have about 285hp and is definately FUN FUN FUN! I love my car. It's perfect for an all weather daily performance commuter. I get 0-60 in about 4.8-4.9 seconds and do the 1/4 mile in 13.8 with an average launch. Great launching should put me around 13.5. I also get 25-26 miles per gallon.
I was under the impression a Cobra could corner with the best of them
. I see pictures all the time on an Auto-X course. I understand that the rearend could break away from you at anytime, but other than that isn't it a good corning car?
