2007 07 Hawkeye STI type UK - can it come with leather?
Hi Guys,
Wondered if someone could help please!
Im looking to at an Impreza thats at a local (private) dealer. The model is a grey 2007 (07) Hawkeye WRX Sti Type UK but it has leather interior? From what I knew these only came with the bright blue alacantra and ONLY the spec D's came with the black leather? Am I mistaken? (BTW its defo the above model as i've looked over the logbook and paperwork etc...)
Also I noticed this has black Brembo brakes (white writing) did they not all come with gold brembo's?
I thought I knew about all the different variations but this has confused me! :s Any clarification on model variants would be greatly appreciated here.
Thanks very much

i have a 06 hawk sti ( type uk ) and it also has full leather interior and a velvet kinda lined roof and pillars with a sti pink rear parcel shelf.
Insurance company told me this was a factory option when built. So nothing to worry about in other words and ive never met another with them so they seem somewhat rare.
Anyways they comfy

Cheers Pramas - so not abnormal or anything to worry about then eh?
Strangely it hasn't got all the pink sti badges all over it, and also has fog lights (which i believe the normal STI type UK's don't have right?)
Seems to be some way between a SpecD and a TypeUK?
Heres some piccys:

seats seem slightly diff to mine, mine are stiched with sti pink thread ( like your handbrake is ) and a pink sti emboss about head height, doubt its anything to worry about prob just 1 of many options.
As for the spotlamps mine doesnt have them so unfortuanltey i cant help you on that 1, it does have a resembalance to spec d though which is equiped with spot lamps. Maybe the last owner was trying to replicate the look

Spec D's have gold Brembo's AFAIK and that also looks like a Jap A-line boot lip spoiler........Looks like someone has tried to make the car look like a Spec d ??

DEFINITELY a STi Limited......as I have one! 
As someone else said, only 25 of them in the country, and I believe only came in silver, grey and black!
Love mine to bits......as it's VERY understated.

Thanks for the response guys, really helpful for me as I know little about these 
STiLtd - as you have one would you mind running me through the differences between these and the normal STI UK's please? Still 270bhp? Does it have heated seats?
Cheers!

Little (boot lip) spoiler
Silver Enkei wheels
Black Brembos
Front Fogs
Leather interior
Black carpets
Different colour centre console
Only came in black, silver and urban grey I believe
Only 25 exist
Don't think I've missed anything.....although I've no doubt someone will jump in if I have.....
Nope, no heated seats.....the WRX SL(?) did though!
Engine, gearbox etc. exactly the same as the standard STi.

Great stuff cheers for that. Couldnt seem to find much on the net about them, the only ones i found were on .com sites and they vary slightly on the specs.

I know what you mean.....I struggled to find out much about them when I bought mine.
The States got more of them.....and in a wider choice of colours (or should that be colors?).
Personally, I think it's a damn nice car, that certainly gets less unwanted attention.

Rumour has it, they were never destined for the UK.....and were only given to a dew dealers. I've got a copy of the advert somewhere....I'll see if I can find it and scan it!

I didnt know these existed, well every days a schoolday.
Iwould love to own a hawk eye like that as an everyday and motorway car, very subtle and comfy but without the LOOK AT ME!! from a normal sti.
Could almost call it a sleeper
