That's a sweet looking car, especially for a Subaru.
Anyone have any specs on it?

With all the torque from a turbo 4 that goes to 8 or 9 thousand rpm, you jsut know it is making more horse power than the stated 300. the formula for finding horsepower is:
Torque * rpm / 5252.
So you see, the horsepower is easy to figure out. to find torque, hust re-arrange the equation, I will posst the actual formula latter.

Beastie car, though.

I have the Canadian unveiling of that car on video tape, it's at the end of one of my taped rally races (taped cause they're only ever on at 2:30 AM >:|). The one I have on tape is the same, only it has 5 spoke gold wheels, and will be offered to the top Canadian Subaru rally driver (Tom McGeer, I think). He's currently driving an old model WRX.

Why is it that the front wheels are angled in, i noticed it on a lot of rally type cars. (see the first picture to see what i mean)

If you are referring to the first pic, well there is something called camber, that is use to give best use of the tires and suspension while turning (on races mostly). For the street, daily use, no camber is required.
