    Most of the older wrx's unless moded are pretty damn slow. To get them quick need uprated turbos etc etc. Only 215bhp odd and then add drivetrain losses and loss of bhp with age.

    I matched, maybe even pulled slightly from one, in my 328i sport from about 60-not really that fast. Off the line they got advantage of quattro, but not very powerful standard and drivetrain loss.

    Ive never driven an R AWD, but from my experience AWD can often feel slower as your not losing grip so feels less 'exciting' i guess.
