300 hp, 155 mph
It would be even better if they made it tunable so it can compete with the 600+ hp 22b's and rx7's

This and the Isle of Man course so I can replicate the time this car did, just like the video @Holdenhsvgtsr posted in the motorsports videos thread!

Recently added Mark Higgins IOM 2014 car (with the video of the full onboard lap) to the car suggestions forum, so gets my vote

The Subaru Impreza is a compact automobile, manufactured since 1992 by Subaru—the automobile division of Japanese transportation conglomerate, Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI). Subaru introduced the Impreza as a replacement for the Leone, with the Leone's EA series engines replaced by the newer EJ series versions. Since the third generation series, some markets have adopted the abbreviated Subaru WRX name for these high-performance variants.
The STI has always been a meaner looking version of the plebeian Impreza WRX, and the fourth generation version is no different. While the overall profile is reminiscent of the base Impreza, the STI features unique doors, fenders, bumpers and hood. The hood is made from aluminum to reduce weight over the nose, and the large scoop that feeds the intercooler has been mounted deeper to improve forward visibility. The headlamp and taillamp assemblies are also bespoke to the STI.
A full aerodynamic body kit is included and features a rear diffuser as well as a large rear wing; a signature feature for STI sedans. Other noticeable changes to the STI include mesh screened fender vents and a carbon-fiber look trim around the foglight assemblies.
The engine in the all-new STI is a turbocharged 2.5-liter, boxer four that makes 305 horsepower and 290 pound-feet of torque. If that sounds familiar, it is because it is the exact same engine that has been powering the STI since 2008. A bespoke six-speed manual is the only transmission option.
While it seems Subaru has skimped on the drivetrain, the chassis and handling abilities of the new STI should be leagues ahead of its predecessor. The actual chassis of the car has been stiffened dramatically and the spring rates have been firmed up to provide a sharper on-road feel. The steering rack has also been tightened up and now features a fast 13:1 ratio.
The advanced AWD system has been enhanced with a new Active Torque Vectoring system that can apply brake pressure to individual wheels to create a more neutral feeling through corners.
