I was comparing the early WRX's with the LS1 cars and they get about the same as the a4, the m6 straight up beats them. I was pretty surprised to say the least.

I know how that goes. I bought my first camaro for 3k, was rearended in it, got 4k from the insurance company, and another bit of change for the wreck.
