Subaru has shattered expectations with its latest creation, the WRX Project Midnight. This beast of a race car is the fastest WRX ever built by the Japanese automaker. After its debut at the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed, Project Midnight is set to thrill North American audiences at the Velocity Invitational in Sonoma, California.

Clad in menacing matte black and sporting aggressive widebody aerodynamics, Project Midnight is as visually striking as it is powerful. Under the hood lies a heart-pounding, 670-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged flat-four engine that screams to an astonishing 9,500 RPM. Weighing in at a featherweight 2,500 pounds – a staggering 1,000 pounds lighter than its production counterpart – this track-only terror is built for speed.

California native and racing legend Scott Speed will take the wheel of Project Midnight as it tackles Sonoma Raceway’s challenging 12-turn course. Get ready for a spectacle as this extreme performance machine pushes the limits of the WRX platform.
