I parked next to a 67 mustang on the weekend. It was smaller than my WRX.

Ah, no Ebay Motors in Aus yet.

Wot WRX do you have?

1999 Impreza WRX LENGTH/WIDTH/HEIGHT: 171 x 66.5 x 55.3 in 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Type-UK 175.8 x 68.5 x 56.7 in (do you meet many flying birds up there?) It's height says it's a saloon car. A high performance saloon car is not a sports car.

Go on, tell me it's a sportswagon.

1966 Ford Mustang 390 183.6 x 71.3 in x ? soft top 1968 Ford Mustang Hardtop 183.6 x 70.3 x 51.6 in Yes it's nice and low compared to a WRX but it uses as much road as a small tank. It's about the same height as a current Porker 911, only needs a 1.6in(40mm) drop to get it down to a decent height like the old 50" high 911.

188.0 x 73.9 x 55.4 in Yup it's grown up into a high performance saloon, no way for it to be a sports coupe.

1976 Toyota Celica GT Liftback

167 x 63.8 x 51 in It's smaller than a 1989 Er you know what. 178.5 x 66.5 x 50.8 in. Getting either down to a decent sports coupe's 50in height (assuming you can fix the camber on the Celica) is easily done with a 20/25mm drop. By 1982 the Liftback 2.0XT was 175.2 x 65.6 x 52 in, 50mm is possbly too much of a drop. Unlike so many modern cars Toyota have managed to keep the size under control, current T-sport is 171 x 68 x 51.6in.

04 WRX Clubspec. 67 Mustang Fastback. It certainly looked smaller.
