Subaru has unveiled the latest STI version of the new Impreza WRX. It is powered by a 2.0L boxer-4 with a twin-scroll turbo mated to a 6-speed manual. SI-DRIVE, multi-mode Drivers Control Center Differential (DCCD) and Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) are also standard.

  3. Do some auto manufacturers make really really really ugly cars so that their sales go down so they have an excuse to stop the production model? It seems like Subaru did this to their fabled WRX and WRX STi. Poor cars they don’t deserve to be treated like this b/c of how famous they made Subaru world wide. You should be ashamed of yourselves Subaru.
