Hi Guys/Gals,
I'm new here and looking at the Sti7. Any Aussies have this car yet?
Opinions?

Thanks
:)

SSS

ps. this is a great site.

I can't tell.

I think we have the Version 8 in Australia. Well that's what it's sold as.

as we missed out on the V7.

There a great car anyway, if a little "Laggy", the turbo doesn't really come on boost till 4K, just a little late for my tastes.

the rest of the car is a dream, great handling, huge brakes etc etc.

just needs a little work in the turbo department.

Sti8, really?
Never heard of that. Anybody else know about this?
Thanks
Steve

try this?

The new WRX STIs are called the MY01 New age STI and the MY02 new age STI. There is no version 7 and there is no version 8. In the old shaped STIs every year they called it version so on.For example the MY99 STI was called the version 5 and the MY00 STI was called the version 6. In Australia people and some tuners are calling the MY01 STI the version 7 and the MY02 STI the version 8 to not confuse the two new models. This however is not the official name from Subaru. The official name for a MY01 STI is "NEW AGE MY01 WRXSTI" and for a MY02 it is NEW AGE MY02 WRXSTI.

Cheers,

Wrexy.

Great,
Thanks for the info guys.
