Default Ceramic coated pistons?

Were the pistons in all MY2000 imprezas ceramic coated (GC8 Lump)? Or was it just red top/STi cars?

Cheers

I wasn't aware that any MY2000 pistons were ceramic coated.
Happy for someone with more knowledge to expand on this.

Nice bit of background reading (mostly marketing blub - but there are some facts in there - not specific on dates though):
