Yep, I agree with Sunday Driver, It looks better without a spoiler ....But I would say that. Needs some 19" wheels though. Lovely.

Does anyone know if Subaru plans on selling this in America? I have understood they are planning to bring the STi here in a year or two, but would they bring this as well?

What's the difference between an STI RA and an STI RA C?

The RA spec C has better top end power compared to the the RA while down low there is less. It is more of a track car hence the absence of fog lights and a/c which lightens up the car.

Coooooo......
Nice. Liked it in white, and better with a spoiler.
Now going to show ignorance big time.....what's the little flappy thing on the roof for?

An option along with the rear-mounted drag style parachute

Paul,
What took you so long - that was on the B4 list a week back
The BBS wheels are a spoecial light weight jobbie, and the RE070s are special for this model too...a la the Yokos on the E*o (only better).
The steering wheel is also a special. Also note the normal pedals, vs. the nice ones in the STI.
The suspension geometry is also different, a lot more castor up front for better turn in etc.
The ventilator on the roof has a sticker on it warning about keeping it open above a certain speed as it may come off
Cheers
