STi does look much better in those pics.

12.5 quarter mile with only 230kW at the fly and similar weight? I'll believe it when I see it.

it all has to do with the gearing also, u will find that there much longer ratios, benefical for the 1/4, but suffering in response slightly

quote from article says:

The slight boost in power, coupled with the fact that the car will be about 50 lb. lighter, will make the next WRX STI just as quick as, if not quicker than, the Evo X.

American article isn't it. They always seem to have a quicker stock version than us. Sorry to say I think it will be a little quicker than the current stock but would have to mod it all over again to keep up with my current one.
