Default 2011 WRX STi Sedan "Spec C" spotted testing.

Possible 2011 WRX STi Spec C caught testing at the ring. Or it could be just the new sedan. According to the story they think it just might be the new Spec C. I'll post a few pics and link to the story.

Here is a short video:
2011 Subaru Impreza STi Sedan (Saloon) on Vimeo

Here are some new pic's!

It could be the new spec c, there is no rear wiper and all the pics of the latest one in the states show a rear wiper
Wont be worth buying one at the current exchange rate, even before export tax/shipping/import tax/sva/model report etc, its over 23k uk £

When I saw the STi sedan at the NY International Autoshow, I thought, "This will be my next car. I wonder how it looks in white though." Now that I see it in white, it's a definite. This will be my next car.

I agree.

Plus I doubt the UK will get the sedan version.
Afterall, the USA have had the sedan version from the start if I remember correctly and it was already known that the UK would not get it

I know people comment about the looks.... but since when was the Impreza a good looking car anyway? Most have been as ugly as sin.

It's about the way they go, not how they look.

No - your right.

The classic "nearly" blended in with other saloon cars.

The newage cars with the bigh spoilers just stick out like a sore thumb

The STI hatchback "nearly" blends in
Personally I think the hatchback is the nicest of the whole lot.

The STI sedan looked "alright"
The SPEC C pictured at the start looks like **** all squared to be perfectly honest

For all the peeps that say it looks ugly, have they taken into account its under hard braking in the pics making it look a little out of shape? check out the quick vid clip, looks very nice, reminds me of my evo 6 a little tbh.
