And, it doesn't need to have 300bhp from the factory - 250 would be fine. 50 less than I have now, it'd be trivial with the upgrades seen on that STI to have it be considered safe on the street and track. I'd argue that it's ignorant to claim otherwise.

I think he means that it's begging for a manual transmission.
