Default What is the difference between a Spec D and Type UK Ltd?

I have a choice of three Hawkeyes at the moment:

Standard STi 07 Blue Big Spoiler
STi Spec D 07 Grey WRX Spoiler with PPP
STi Limited 07 Black Lip Spoiler (has a red hazard switch which I think makes it JDM?)

Not sure which way to go?

I think the STi Limited was originally intended for the US market, meaning it is more like the UK STi then the 2ltr JDM twin scroll.

Basically, the STi limited gets the a-line lip spoiler (the a-line is the JDM Spec D) and the Spec D gets the WRX spoiler. I'm not sure if you get leather interior in the STi Limited but you do in the Spec D, plus an upgraded stereo and a rather woeful Smartnav sat nav system.

I have a Spec D (being sold today ) and it has been a great car. I have modified it slightly and fitted the lip spoiler as per the STi Ltd - best of both worlds IMO.

sorry but GOLD fitted brembo m8

extra sound proofing
black carpets

and yes it is an sti in all other respects

sooooo many boy racer types think they are 'picking/bullying' on a wrx, then they get a shock mint, love the stealth should have painted all the car in matt black radar absorbing paint
