Pics of my new Pure White MY08 STi Type UK
 
Traded in my R27 for it. Opted for a standard car in Pure White.

Pics are hosted on Flickr - MY08 STi - a set on Flickr

First impressions:

Love it - it's beautiful to drive, civilised on the Motorway, a beast on a B-road!

Needs the 18's - for looks more than anything. Planning on getting the front fogs, STi lip spoiler, Prodrive GT1 wheels and window tints.

Cheers,

Al

Looks great, just needs the dealer sticker removing from the rear window and the wheel balancing weights moving to the inside of the wheels and it'll be perfect!

Lovely motor :)

mickaldo 11 May 2008 05:28 PM

best colour defo, needs 18,s in graphite or black still not to sure on the new shape though, probably grow on me in time.:thumb:

ballsie 11 May 2008 05:35 PM

Anthracite GT1 are a must I think - I think the black ones are maybe a bit too much of a contrast.

Not liking the hatchbacks at all they dont seem to stand out as much as the saloon. I passed one the other day and from the rear view mirror it looks similar to a mini.
Just my opinion m8.:)

Very nice mate!:thumb: From one 08STi owner to another.

Lee:D

I like the wheels, you just need to get them painted gold now, go on you know you want to.

Midnight Runner 11 May 2008 07:58 PM

Looks sweet, like the front, not the back though! Would say no to one and your's looks great in that colour :thumb: Maybe go for some aftermarket anthracite wheels, as I bet most white ones will get the GT 1's, what about speedline turini's???

zsabalic 11 May 2008 10:37 PM

Love the colour...
I've reserved judgement on the my08 Imprezas until I see one in the flesh... can't believe I aint seen any yet...i've seen two evo Xs already...

st33ly 12 May 2008 12:35 PM

Gold 18's turinis would look amazing!!!

where abouts are you based at m8,
noticed the stan palmer sticker in the rear window were you the guy i was talking to on sunday at heaves hall ??

ballsie 13 May 2008 09:22 PM

I'm actually from Glasgow. I just found Stan Palmer to be super helpful when I was orignally looking at the car and felt it fitting to give them the business.

Sorry - different guy. :)

rob84 14 May 2008 11:23 PM

ok no worries glad you like the car, same as mine great taste:luxhello:

harry_p1 14 May 2008 11:42 PM

Great Car Mate:thumb:

ballsie 24 May 2008 04:34 PM

Added some new photos today - got my 18" Prodrive GT1's on and STi front lip spoiler.

It's getting there!

Looks much better with those wheels. Costly?

Terminator X 24 May 2008 05:41 PM

The dark wheels look better than the (original?) silver ones. Looks good in white as most people seem to agree. Not yet seen a MY08 STi in the flesh yet though ...

Good choice BTW ;)

TX.

Edit - why's the scoop much smaller than it used to be ie MY08 vs MY05 say?

bluenose172 24 May 2008 05:52 PM

The MY07 scoops are small compared to MY05 as well though. Less cooling required due to lower boost levels needed with the 2.5??

Not too bad Paul - not as much as the BBS ones fortunately! Wheels are £250 each plus tyres.

Cheers.

frayz 25 May 2008 12:33 AM

Looks the nuts IMO, loving the New STI :D

davedipster 25 May 2008 08:03 AM

Very nice!

ballsie 25 May 2008 09:59 AM

Cheers Guys - think it still needs tinting on the rear passenger windows and round the back.

I can't make my mind up about fog lights either!
