The WR1 version of Subaru's WRX Sti is a limited edition version (500 will be produced) that celebrates Petter Solberg's Driver's Title in the 2003 World Rally Championship. The car features several appearance and performance upgrades. Visual enhancements include a stainless steel mesh grill, a lowered ride height (25mm), and 18-inch 7-spoke rims with Pirelli PZero tires. Performance upgrades include a revised engine control unit and a high-flow catalyst and sports silencer. The WR1 also features a driver's control-center-differential. A switch located near the handbrake allows the driver to distribute torque between front and rear wheels.

0-60: 4.3
0-100: 10.6
1/4 mile: 12.8 @ 110mph

too bad it won't be sold here in the states

my god.. i cant stop drooling.. i love impreza's

sixate · 03-23-2004, 04:28 AM

That would be one of the greatest cars of all time if it only had 2 doors. I hate cars with 4 doors, and I'll never own one.

Cynthetiq · 03-23-2004, 07:37 AM

nice.... i'd rather it be a coupe too...

but shave the door handles and you're all good.

Subaru has done a hell of a job transforming themselves.

Hard to believe just a few years ago Subaru was pretty much strictly for soccer moms who are afraid of snow, or hippie college professors who can't afford Volvos. The WRX sure changed that image quickly.

kwoodmex · 03-23-2004, 12:21 PM

It's a nice car, and the Imprezza has turned out to be an impressive car, but I still don't see why people go gaga over them.

thadon · 03-23-2004, 01:49 PM

that is fukin sweet .. I'd love to have an STi, not practical for me now though, I drive a Dodge Dakota b/ I am always camping or mountain biking and the Sti is just not big enough to carry all the gear

Tech · 03-23-2004, 08:24 PM

i'm with you, thadon, on the camping bit, i want a WRX wagon though because it has a lot of space... i wish (hope) they make an STi wagon, but as of right now, no

wrongfullyaccuzd · 03-23-2004, 10:24 PM

What would the purpose be for this option? I under normal driving? Bad weather? Proformance?

PoteMatic · 04-02-2004, 10:46 AM

damn thats so tight but you dont even see very many sti's or at least not where i live.

yakimushi · 04-09-2004, 08:03 PM

That car is totally tits... right until that stupid fucking wing on the back. Christ that looks horrible.

WarWagon · 04-09-2004, 08:19 PM

Now that'd make one hell of a daily driver.

That's one hell of a sentence to describe one hell of a car. Nicely done, both you and Subaru!

Just out of curiosity, where would you redraw the roof and pillar lines if it was a coupe. I have an idea of what I'd do (making it into sort of a hatchback/fastback design and wrapping the rear windwhield around a bit,) but I want to hear what the other coupe-inclined people would do

opey99 · 04-10-2004, 08:04 PM

I like the sti's but I'd change the wing and hood scoop to the regular wrx if I got one, just too much for me, plus, can you say sleeper?!
