Unfortunately, even if they DO build it, which I doubt, it won't be imported here.

THEN you have he fun of sourcing spares and getting it serviced, should you decide to import one yourself.

come on, do you relay think that will be an issue? STI classics were around a looooong time before there was a uk sti and even then people still import them.

Just been reading about this on Pistonheads. Looks good, but as said above, I doubt Subaru would import it to the UK.

Needs more than 300bhp though. The game has moved on.....

Looks great and as I see no direct replacement for my STi I hope they do bring the future WRX Sti to this country. Officially or as an import.

Look at the pictures from the new york show. The impreza displayed is within spitting distance of that concept picture.
