Probably one of the best examples of badge engineering ever. Not everyone liked the front styling of this generation of Impreza over it's years of production, and this gave customers a great alternative.

Also being a GM brand at the time, I'm pretty sure it had better powertrain coverage than the Subaru conterpart (5 year, 100,000 miles, compared to 5 years, 60,000 for the Subaru).

Only major disadvantage I'm aware of was a smaller dealer network than Subaru, though it could be serviced at a Subaru dealer.

Well, I can copy motor, delete vmax and fuel consumption, and just change transmission, right?
Because I really didnt found anything (apart from fact that automatic transmission was for extra 1250$).

Yes and delete the weight, as that's the only relevant thing that changes for automatic transmissions.

According to wikipedia, all trims had automatic versions, so it's important that you find information for them.

I just done the engines with manual transmission :D yes, there is, but I cant find info about it. Websites are more focusing on manual than automatic transmission (car is based on Subaru, so it is sporty, and who would buy slow 4AT to this kind of car), but I will try my best.
