Default White Blob STI??

Hi all,

Just looking at my options for when I get around to getting an STI.

Did Subaru ever make a UK/JDM white blobeye? Was it a Spec C release only?

Cheers all

White for UK cars was a special order, there are one or two knocking about, some were police but ive seen a couple of UK STI's that were not and white

This one started life WR blue,
it was then sprayed white and a full body wrap was applied by Rich
at RRH turning it into the Stormtrooper,

Then James (Anger) bought it and after a short while he removed the vinyl wrap
and then started to put his own stamp on it, its an awsome motor.

As Tonyburns has mentioned they were a special order when you went to the dealer to buy one (like the bug)....... not a limited edition but I guess people didn't want to wait LOL

When I bought mine I could have a Green one straight away or wait for a blue one .......

Haha, nice job! The White and black colour scheme is obviously the way to go! What wheels are they? I can't make it out from the photos.

I think white blob uk sti`s are very few and far between no matter what year they are mate,but the wide track 05/06 blob uk sti in white is a rare car indeed,the best and last of the uk 2.0ltr cars and in the best colour is a hell of a car to own for sure.
