That car has been out of production for at least 2 years already. Need to compare apples to apples. Otherwise buy a used vette, it will spank this car in power and handling.

Subaru has stated 270hp for the turbo fa20 in the next wrx. I would expect the same for an sti brz. Wrx sti wil be north of 300hp and may end up slower than an sti brz. The 2 cars realy don't compete against each other on any front except price.
