From Auto Express web site.....detuned STi :-(

"Rally legend Subaru has thrilled fans of its new Impreza by confirming the high-performance STi will arrive in the UK in December, priced under £30,000.
The four-cylinder boxer unit will be detuned from 280bhp to 260bhp to pass emissions regulations. The manufacturer aims to make up for the power loss by adding a host of extras, including a rear wing and gold alloy wheels.

Meanwhile, tuning expert Prodrive is to work on the WRX edition to create a WR Sport-badged model due for a September debut. Prodrive will then turn its attention to the STi with a view to replacing the driver-oriented P1."
