Reading an article in an American magazine I got recently, they tested the latest Scoob v the MR400 (UK test).
Despite not having either car in the US, they made a point which I thought was quite interesting.
Even though Subaru's are mighty fine cars (I have owned one and loved it) Subaru's have historically been a little behind Mitsubushi in terms of power, torque, grip, handling, pace, acceleration etc.
Given that the similarities of 10 years ago (early Evo's v early WRX/STi's where 276bhp was the limit) now have an 20-80bhp difference in their top models in UK form (80bhp being the limited run MR400), will Subaru catch Mitsubushi in terms of dynamics and capability or indeed take away their ultimate road/rally car title as granted by the Yanks and indeed in our own press?
