The first generation Subaru Impreza production run ran from 1992 to 2000 and offered in either front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) versions and as a four-door sedan or five-door hatchback (Touring). The car used a shortened version of the Legacy's floor plan. Subaru chose to continue their longstanding use of the boxer engine in the Impreza, which according to Subaru, their configuration of the engine inline with the transmission minimizes body roll due to the lower centre of gravity compared with offset engines in most other vehicles, and it was the Impreza that the company decided would be their weapon of choice in the WRC (World Rally Championships .With their rally operations run from Prodrive in Banbury. There have been since been seven noted versions of the WRX dating back from Subaru's original World Rally Cross staging vehicles. WRX versions (1992 to present) feature rally inspired technology, including all wheel drive, stiffened suspensions and turbocharged four cylinder engines. The STi versions were the high performance models, homologated for rallying and are labelled as versions 1 through to 6. These come in three different body styles; sedan, Coupé (type R only) and hatchback.
The UK proved an attractive, grey import market for high performance models. To counter the grey imports of high-performance Japanese variants, Subaru UK commissioned Prodrive to produce a limited edition of 1,000 two-door cars in Sonic Blue, called the WRX P1. Released in March 2000, they were taken from the WRX Impreza STI Type R lines and used for the P1. The P1 and Australian Subaru delivered WRX Impreza STI Version 5 were the only coupe versions of the WRX STI GC chassis to receive ABS. In order to allow for ABS, the DCCD was dropped. Engine output was boosted to 276 bhp and the suspension optimised for British roads. Options were available from Subaru consisting of four-piston front brake calipers, electric Recaro seats, 18-inch wheels and a P1 stamped backbox. Aerodynamically honed by Peter Stevens and based around a lighter / stiffer two-door bodyshell, the limited edition P1 had more in common with the legendary 22B than its lesser four-door Subaru Impreza WRX siblings.
