"If" these cars are allowed full pursuit use then they will have had to pass a much more stringent operational appraisal to get through, if not then they're just evaluation show ponies..

I am not sure where you got that information from but all the TMU members I have spoken to were quite impressed with the WRX's, describing them as go karts for handling and urgent duty driving.
My money would be on this vehicle being a donor car, just like the Monaro GTO that got around with the Melbourne TMU in 02/03. That car was done up in the all police decals etc but was not allowed to be used in urgent duty driving.
