Dude, you just can't drive. Check the specs for yourself. The carrera would smoke your WRX from a dead stop, stock for stock, if you knew how to drive it.

If you think your car is so much hotter through first and second gear then why is it so much slower at getting to 50 MPH than the lighter and higher powered car?
