06 Forester STi has arrived..UPDATED
The wife has had her 06 Forester STi delivered by Litchfield Imports and to say that we are chuffed is an understatement. The facelift is in our eyes a definate improvement over the 05 STi we had, also the ride is very different. It is difficult to describe except that it feels more grown up/refined but we need to do some miles over familiar roads to decide finally.
We chose to have the Aero Pack fitted along with tow bar, rear sensors, front tints and Miltek/remap which gives 330bhp and 330 lbs…………..roll on 1,000 miles and being able to use the rev band more!!!!!!!!

Fantastic mate - glad you are pleased with it ! Love the aero kit and those blacked out rear lights - makes all the difference.. 
Have you had the leather done yet ?
That Miltek and remap sounds very appealing although I'll need a turbo change as well

Absolutely love that!
I'm tempted to cancel my wedding and put the money into a new Forester.
Iain, how much to chop my 05 Spec B tourer in for one of those?

Wow, controversial well thought out comment, perhaps you could get a job as a reviewer on Evo? 
Afterall Subaru's are known for being beautifully styled cars aren't they, so the STi Forester ruins the brand image.
Nice to see a bit of brand loyalty too, oh and what new Audi Estate can cross country and charge up dual carriageways like the Forester for 27k?
