How is it powerwise compared to the M3 and Impreza? More refinded/smoot compared to Impreza... less rattly than M3?

It's quick. Lowest powered of the 3, but feels faster than the M3, and only 20 bhp down on the Impreza. In fact rolling acceleration I would say is better, just ntas good off the mark.
Definately more refined than the Impreza, and nothing like the M3 in the fact there are no rattles and it doesn't feel like its going to fall apart

yup... I think the E36 M3 cabs should come with life jackets, life lines and rudders. Boats 
You going to take it on track? Is this one a daily, or are you still living the fiesta dream?

I'm supposed to be on track tomorrow at Combe and Nurburgring at the end of the month, plan is to use it daily, but I love the Fiesta and not having to give a crap about it

As AK said the M3 is a barge, plus after 14 years I doubt it was running it's full 286 bhp. As for being faster than the Impreza, it doesn't feel as fast as it is so much smoother, but as said in gear acceleration I reckon is better.

Good choice!!!
Welcome to the club!
Get yourself over to vxronline.
Any plans.
May I suggest exhaust, springs and a rarb. Springs and a rarb transform the handling.
