Prodrive Subaru Impreza N2010 WRC Review

The Prodrive Subaru Impreza N2010 WRC also comes with improved Ohlins dampers that now have an extra travel front and rear and stronger suspension bushes. The Prodrive Subaru Impreza N2010 WRC price starts at 120,000 GBP and the British company says it ha introduced a financing option to enable the car to be leased over two years.

The new car can therefore be used in both national and international rally events, as it is to receive the FIA homologation in due time. According to the Prodrive press release, the Impreza N2010 car has a starting price of £120,000, with the package including “insurance and system rebuilds.”
In addition, “Prodrive has introduced a financing option to enable the car to be leased over two years with an option to buy the car at the end of the agreement.”

2010 Subaru Forester, Compact Crossover SUV

Here is the new 2010 Subaru Forester. The Forester is Subaru’s compact crossover SUV, which was redesigned for the 2009 model year with an increase in size and a more SUV-like appearance. With styling that ties it more closely to the new Impreza and the redesigned Tribeca, the new Forester is 4.5 inches taller, 1.8 inches wider and 3 inches longer than its predecessor for additional cargo capacity and more rear-seat legroom. Subaru is the first company to offer all-wheel drive across its entire model line. The Forester was introduced for the 1998 model year and redesigned for 2003.

The base engine is rated at 170 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 170 lb-ft of torque at 4400 rpm. The 2.5-liter four features Subaru's i-Active variable valve lift system, sequential electronic fuel injection and is PZEV emission certified. Fuel economy is rated at 20 mpg city, 26 mpg highway.

The turbocharged powerplant gets a heartier engine block and Subaru's more advanced Active Valve Control System (AVCS). The turbo XT pumps out 224 horsepower at 5200 rpm and 226 lb-ft of torque at 2800 rpm, and checks in with a 19/24 city/highway mpg rating.

Pros:

• Excellent front, rear outward visibility
• Tenacious, off-road-ready AWD
• Roomy, comfy cabin; lots of storage

Cons:

• Suspension sprung a bit too soft
• 2.5X: 3,300-lb curb weight versus 170 hp
• 4-cylinder power, 6-cylinder mileage
