Check this thing out...just found this on LeftLaneNews.com

The U.K.’s AutoCar magazine has published the first photos of the Prodrive P2 concept, which is scheduled to make its first public appearance at this weekend’s Autosport International Racing Car Show in Birmingham. In December, Leftlane News published the first official drawings of the P2, released by Prodrive. At its core, the P2 uses a 345 hp Subaru Impreza STi engine, transmission and four-wheel-drive system, to which Prodrive has added its own active handling system, ATD, and an engine turbo anti-lag system developed from its SWRT program. The P2 has a top speed of 174 mph and can reach 60 mph in 3.8 seconds.

There is a chance it might actually get built :)

More specs:

It looks like Prodrive is looking for a partner to build the car.

What's the point of having antilag on a street car? I also wouldn't want to replace the turbo often because of that...but for those who don't mind spending some money on a new turbo every 3-5 months, not bad I guess :dunno:
