A HIGH-performance hot hatchback can match the speed and acceleration of a Porsche 911 Turbo - and it costs much, much less to buy.
Petrolheads looking for a little bit of extra oomph on a budget can simply search for a very impressive Subaru Impreza hatchback.
The cool-looking hot hatch, which boasts 296bhp, can hit a top speed of 155mph and reach 60mph in just five seconds.
That awesome power comes from the 2.5T WRX STi Type Impreza specifically - which matches the stats from several sports car models.
That includes the classic Porsche 911 Turbo, as well as the German brand's 911 Carrera RS and the 911 Carrera CS 3.2.
That's not to mention their retro offerings of the 928, 924, 944 and 968.

A good condition 911 Turbo can cost up to £90,000 - with many models often going for even more than that.
But from a quick search on AutoTrader, we were able to sniff out an Impreza hatchhack for £8,890.
The grey hot hatch, complete with titanium gold alloy wheels, is an unmolested example and "drives as an STi should", according to the listing.
It comes with a sports quad exhaust system, front spoiler, side skirts and a rear boot spoiler.
