Awesome! They should make those wheels standard for the 2010MY, they suit the Impreza very well.

Well done. Fantastic car. Why have they done away with the intercooler water spray system?

The price is indeed high for a STI. Even the regular STI is a little high compared to the previous one.

Damn 50k? That is approaching M3 territory. You would have to be nuts to pay that for the car unless you really need the AWD.

Little bit better, still an ugly pig though.

true that. i will never understand why they went with this design instead of having a slim, agile COUPE. 4 doors feel so wrong on this

Under the hood, STI outfitted the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with an "exclusively designed turbocharger with ball bearings for the turbine axle bearing, (a) specially tuned ECU (Engine Control Unit), and a sport muffler with lowered back pressure exhaust." Thanks to these modifications, the engine produces 235 kW / 320 PS / 315hp and 431 Nm of torque. All that and just a 20hp diff!?!?! U can get more than that with just a simple decat and some more boost!

This is a nice car. However, it doesn't feel that exclusive because Subaru has been making "special editions" for the Impreza WRX STI all the time !! so they aren't that "special" anymore......
