Default WRX STI colour?

I am going to import a JDM 2011 4 door WRX STI. What are your opinions on colour, WR blue or white?

Blue because it's unique and you can't get that colour here so will be very rare! not to mention the Only JDM STI saloon in the country!

From your choice I would choose white, but if they do black it would be that all the way

I have only seen Plasmer blue in the showroom, but I haven't been offered one in that colour anyway.

Nice shot of the white with gold i need to see more with wheel combos

Leg the normal sti in the uk comes with enky wheels bbs were extra but that one u have looks mega anyway mate

What diff is the jdm? Ive seen 2 posts saying its still 2.5

As i said above whitenis good but u get that in the uk so why import unless u get something special like full leather like the yanks

Themblue however is very very unique ive yet to see another 2011 on the road so imagine that blue mate youll be the only one

Imthink the white car lower down showsmthe potential of the beast if done right

Blue
As pointed out above you can't order a uk spec in wr blue now

(Just that great looking plasma blue which has a lovely purple tint to it )

So wr blue it has to be
Not tha I'm biased At all



Blue is the tradional Subaru colour and would be a very unique colour for a new modle imported

If WRC/Marine Blue had been available, then I'd probably have gone for it, although I'm liking the Black look now...........

Will put a pic of the exhaust that's on the R205 sounds and looks amazing it's an aftermarket bitz ,but I've never had a car sound as good as this before.
