No one ever said that football mamas can't get around quickly and have fun at the same time. Least of all Subaru. In revealing the 7-seat concept Exiga at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show the brand gave the market such a potential car but it seems at some point this wasn't enough and so a decision was taken to liven things up even more.
Enter the new Exiga "2.0GT tuned by STI", a customised version currently exhibiting at the 41st Tokyo Motor Show. As the name suggests Subaru Tecnica International (STI) took it under its wing and changed a few things. Upgrades featured include an STI front spoiler, STI springs, torsion bar, strut bar, sports muffler and 17-inch alloy wheels, also from STI.
Inside a combination of alcantara and leather seats - just like in the Impreza STI hatch - should bring out not just style but a sporty feeling from the occupants. The driver has a MOMO steering wheel to play with, as well as a red engine Start/Stop button. The automatic gear lever is adorned with an STI logo.
Unfortunately not every soccer mama or daddy will get their grubby hands on it; production is being limited to only 300.
