Question 05 WRX pictures / performance

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know where I can find some good pictures of the upcoming 05 WRX? Also, what modifications have been made over the 04 model - is the handling improved

cheers

Do a search on here - there are a few threads on this with many a picture. Also, look in members gallery where both myself and Avalyn have just pruchased and received MY05 models.... one in blue, one in the new crystal grey...

Cue Avalyn

Exterior wise (if you're talking WRX not STi) there's not a huge difference between MY03/04/05 .. so there's plenty to look at in the Members Gallery .. the only new thing to look for is the new Crystal Grey colour which mightyvid has and a damn fine colour it is too

Interior wise there been a relatively big change (new centre console, improved interior door cards, roof lining and we now get climate control). It's a much improved place to sit

I doubt unless you Schumey you'll be able to tell much difference (on road anyway) between the MY04 and MY05. The MY05 has inverted struts (like the STi) but how much quantifiable difference that makes is hard to tell. Myself and mightyvid have only covered about 600 miles between us but so far I'm impressed. It's sooooo much better than my MY00 classic wagon

Do a search on MY05, there a thread (not too old) that details all the changes that were released by Subaru (then removed ). I have a .pdf file if you want it e-mailed

Avalyn.

Default Thanks mate

Thanks for your help guys - much appreciated. I have just ordered myself a WRX PPP through my company. Was worried that I would get the 04 - turns out that I am in fact getting the 05. Sounds like it was worth waiting the extra month. Am pissd that I did not realise about the new colour.

Cheers again
