Imprezza plus BMW M5 V10 sounds as if it will have traction problems, doesn't it?

Especially when just RWD. Well, it certainly does have traction issues, but it would appear that the owner / builder has designs on the bizarre form of motorsport called "drifting" where the aim is to undo decades of hard work making cars handle and grip in order to appeal to bizarrely clothed spectators who like to be wreathed in tyre smoke watching cars going slowly, but very sideways around a track. The odd nature of this sport being compounded by huge rear wings that add downforce being offset by overworked engines trying to overcome it! Seems he's hit the spot with this transplant then.... :)

As nice as the car is... I can't help but feel I'd need a burberry cap to drive it :( Which is a shame because they are lovely cars, but just it's natural owner......

 

id have to agree with that :( theres a bloke down my road with one, drives it like abit of a douche, and its bloody loud! mainly seems to be the older ones the "rudeboyz" drive
