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!!!!!!!!

Nice car - and in the best colour too :D

SiDHEaD 23 December 2005 07:24 PM

Like that - and I normally HATE 4x4s :D

Bartop 23 December 2005 07:24 PM

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 ;)

Leather has been done, but ran out of daylight to take some pics, I will post some up over Xmas.

scoobymy01 23 December 2005 08:03 PM

thanks

paul w 23 December 2005 08:06 PM

Cant stand 4x4's but that does look pretty smart and should tow a caravan ok,probably lose all the contents out the back window though.

SAWEEEET :cool:

G00ner 23 December 2005 08:48 PM

Absolutely love that!:cool:

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? ;)

XRS 23 December 2005 08:49 PM

Very nice!

I suspect that'd go down quite well mate..... how's things??

Scoob99 23 December 2005 09:01 PM

Stunning........Just Stunning:thumb:

Granby 23 December 2005 09:19 PM

Absolutely Stunning :thumb: now try and keep this one for longer than 9 months :lol1: :D

Scooby-Mark 23 December 2005 09:33 PM

Fantastic looking car :notworthy :notworthy :cool: :cool:

Saw one in action on the track at Japfest earlier in the year, I was very impressed by it :D :D

Bartop 23 December 2005 10:37 PM

What tints have you gone for on the fronts btw ? Thought you couldn't only tint from the B pillar back...

GFC-GDA-BP5 23 December 2005 11:00 PM

Wow you have no idea how much we would kill to be able to have one of those in the states!

eg3+3 24 December 2005 01:57 AM

Look really really nice with the bodykit! I want one too! very classy with black colour!

STi wanna Subaru 24 December 2005 01:58 AM

Ugly. Look at Audi if you want a good looking estate.

G00ner 24 December 2005 08:38 AM

Wow, controversial well thought out comment, perhaps you could get a job as a reviewer on Evo? :rolleyes:

Afterall Subaru's are known for being beautifully styled cars aren't they, so the STi Forester ruins the brand image. :cry:

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? :confused:

;):p

sammyh 24 December 2005 09:15 AM

You gonna buy one then Goon :D

Trout 24 December 2005 09:24 AM

Fabulous looking car...was on my short list...but the Spec C was tooooooo tempting in the end. It was very close though and if I had seen that one who knows :D

I had the front windows tinted as dark as possible to keep it just inside of the law requirements, not sure about the percentage of the tint though as I left it to the tinter.
