have you seen the amount of options that are available to Jap Domestic market.. abso..bloody..lutely everything you can think of-
about 10 exhaust systems, 5 different spoilers and front grille designs, LSD options, interior dial kits, uprated turbos and intercoolers, roll cages.. the list is endless

no just imagine if that was offered by IM through the UK subaru franchaises you could end up spending about 10k on upgrades alone!!!

note that pretty much all of the s-201 parts were eventually released by sti - you can trawl through them on the poweraxel site:

The 201 was sold in very limited numbers...I have only seen 3 on the road in many years of living here.
