But the STi Tribeca will never happen. They stopped making them in 2013 and the Mk2 never left the US.

No. It was a US and other markets but not JDM. The Mk2 was a 3.6 H6 engine with a mild facelift.

I think the mk1 looked ahead of its time, looks similar to the recently facelifted Kia Sportage. Mk2 lost its drama and looked quite bland in comparison.

There were a few here in the UK but not many.

MCM fitted a turbocharged Tribeca engine into a Legacy Estate (Gramps and then Supergramps)
