Nice , but personally I would have waited till they pushed them out with a 2ltr twin scroll FA unit and not the EJ257.

Well that would have been hard as I am no longer welcome in that place, but I have found a much better dealer called Kinghams that is a smaller dealer in Croydon.
They took mine in part ex and gave me the same I paid for it just over a year also after the problem I had subaru gave me a fair bit of money of new one....

They've revised the colours. I think white has been replaced with silver and there is another blue too. Seems a little odd to me.

Well I did look at lots of cars ie the Ford Rs and the new Honda type R looks good to but the deal that subaru head office and Kinghams have given me was silly to turn down....
Also I do love the wrx sti and the way it drives it's in it own class I feel...

Dont think they are going to change the engine until 2020. I want to get the 2016 but think im going to wait until 2017 to see if they are going to make the push button start standard in all models....
