Re: Hi Guys
Thank you for the welcome and comments fella's.
I have spoke to many Subaru owners who have either changed to a different model of Subaru, or, are thinking about doing so. All I can say is get a P1 if the situation ever arises.
There were 1004 made.
3 retained by Subaru
1 retained by Prodrive
12 registered as "written off" at the DVLA
254 stolen and assumed sold abroad.
which leaves a total of 734 left!.
An issue often overlooked when comparing a P1 to other Subaru's is that it's more Prodrive than Subaru.
The complete technical set up is all Prodrive and the front splitter & rear wing were designed by the same guy responsible for the Mclaren F1 road car.
Not sure how they achieved the feel and grip levels, but there are some clever people about.
I have driven a WRX. Sti, Type R and two classic imports and although all were impressive they are totally different to
drive. Over the years I have also driven a Lambo Countach, Ferrari 308, Lotus Esprit, Evo 8, and others.
I best way I can describe the feel of a P1 is this. After you have owned a P1, you feel like a passenger when driving anything else.
