Guy I work with likes to think he is a car nut - owned a couple of M3s (which he blew up) and now owns a subuaru impreza P1. Anyway - he asked me if my cerbera was front or rear wheel drive !! What!!?
Then again he has had his brakes upgraded and spent a fortune on 'ice'. I asked him if he was going to do any track days - not his thing he says (so why upgrade the brakes!!?). Aggghhh

A friend of mine was at the Subaru rolling road day last weekend. Apparantly a P1 turned up with fake carbon effect gauges in the car. What's that all about? I'd love a P1 and I certinainly wouldn't feel the need to fake anything in it (oo-er). And if you're going to spend the money why duplicate the gauges instead of doing performance hikes? Sheesh, some people.

Umar B sounds like someone I know - but you never know, he might have a JATO rocket pack bolted into the boot
