As the new Yaris GR is getting a lot of good press i thought it would be fun to compare the road test figures to my car, just to put into perspective just how bloody quick and flexible a genuinely daily driven road car my STi is.
This is with my car running on Shell SUL, which is down a fair bit of torque compared to when it runs 20% meth. Fuel tank is 3/4 full.
Yaris was listed as tested weight 1280Kg, mine is going to be about 1470Kg i would think. (driver weight not included)
Acceleration in gear, Yaris numbers first, STi second
