The Subaru Impreza became popular during the 1990's when the likes of the late Colin Mcrae and Richard Burns flew through the rally stages dominating the WRC. This certainly sparked a huge interest and following for the Subaru Impreza, which led to models such as the type RA and WRX being imported from Japan. After the hugely successful first and second generations, Subaru gave us the third generation.
This was launched in April 2007 at the New York Motor Show, with the WRX STI following close by in October 2007. Available as a 5-door hatchback model, this was something quite different to previous 4-door saloon versions of the Impreza. When the STI was launched it had gained some width, (56mm), and some extra track, (38mm), which improved handling. This was a bonus with the extra power from the flat-four turbocharged Boxer engine producing 303bhp.
This level was stepped up when Cosworth tuners breathed their magic into the Impreza, and the result was the Subaru Impreza WRX STI CS400. This model became the fastest roadgoing model made by Subaru with 0-62 in 3.7 seconds, a standing quarter mile 12.75 seconds and limited to 155mph. The CS400 was limited to Great Britain, all right-hand drive and just 75 made.
