At the Divisional auto-x this weekend, I found out some interesting things. A Contour SVT w/o sunroof weighs 200 lbs. more than the Subaru Impreza RS, and has a 7" longer wheelbase than the Subaru. The torque for the 2 vehicles is about the same and the Subaru has allwheel drive w/ limited slip while the SVT has one wheel drive. Is it any wonder they are the car for STS auto-x competition.
