Independent Subaru WRX STI Concept Looks Fast, Stylish
We've got a theory: Subaru uses two teams developing alternating generation platform designs. The teams compete to out-do each other with progressively uglier vehicles. This independently designed WRX STI proves such mustn't be the case. More » -

20th Anniversary Subaru Impreza WRX STi Revealed For Japan
Subaru is celebrating 20 years of hi-po Scoobies with a 300-unit run of WRX STi Anniversary Edition models. The main differences of importance to enthusiasts are in the suspension, where new coilover damper units stiffen up the handling and carry 18-inch alloy wheels as standard equipment. Flat black details and special badging round out the exterior differences, while the interior gets cosmetic touches like red seat stitching, a red stop/start button and even more badging, all for the equivalent of about $42k US. A little flash, no more dash. Happy anniversary. More » -

Crappy Video Shows Crappy Day For Already Busted Subaru STI
Consider it a blessing in disguise this video is camera-phone quality and not better, because seeing it in full clarity would be even more painful than it already is. Lesson one: Use proper equipment when transporting a car. Lesson two: Sometimes when the shady guy says it's so cheap because it fell off the back of a truck, it really did fall off the back of a truck. (Thanks, we think, for the tip Adamskiy) [Youtube] -

New 2008 Subaru Impreza WRC Racer Revealed
Originally created as a homologation special for the World Rally Championship, the Subaru WRX has always had its roots deep in rally competition. So from the moment we first laid eyes on the 2008 Impreza WRX STI, we were anxious to see what was in store for the full-on WRC-spec race car. Subaru teased us in Frankfurt last year with a concept, but now we finally get to see the real deal. More » -

Would The Subaru WRX STI Really Make The Germans So Sorrowful?
For Wes, the 2008 Subaru WRX STI was a happy experience. For these fictional German engineers in this Subaru commercial the experience was the same. Well, that is until angry bald German bossman shows up. He ruins everything. It's a funny commercial, with a good use of Falco, but is the STI really the Japanese car the Germans wish they built?

2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI, Part One
I drove the 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI backwards. Not in the reverse gear sense, but leaving Palm Springs it's only a very short climb up a straight, steep highway before you get to the kind of roads we car guys can usually only dream about. As state route 74 climbs up to Pinyon Crest, overlooking the Anza-Borrego state park, the road twists and turns, looping back on itself over and over again as it forms tight hairpins. Cliffs rise dramatically on one side and drop thousands of feet on the other. More » -

Commenter of the Day: Vega Venison Edition
Y'all hunt? Not me, but my brother does. He's a dog man. Likes to shoot at ducks and pheasants. Hates deer hunting. Hates it. Who wants to spend the whole day sitting in a tree stand, waiting for your elusive quarry to meander into rifle-range? Of course, this is all rendered hassle-free if you a.) are a rally racer with a WRX STI and b.) find yourself tearing through the snowy Michigan woods, as Hardigree noted this morning. Or else, you could also just have a Vega. Yeah, a Vega. Which brings us to our commenter of the day. More » -

What About a Subaru WRX STI Two-Door?
With all of the Subaru WRX STI business coming to a head today, our buddy Dave asks the pertinent question. What about the ages-old rumor that a new, two-door STI hatch was on the way? It went thataway. Nonetheless, Dave pieced together what such a beast might look like if it were ever to materialize. Yes? No? What say you? -

Subaru Impreza WRX STI Revealed
The e-mail arrived earlier this morning from Fuji Heavy. Yes the e-mail — the one with the first pics of the JDM Impreza WRX STI sans disguise. Subaru's still teasing, however. All we know is it'll come with a 2.0-liter boxer fitted with a twin-scroll turbocharger over six-speed manual. No official word on the 300+ horsepower, but the short paragraph of info says it comes with existing STI gear: SI-DRIVE, Drivers Control Center Differential (DCCD) all-wheel drive and Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC). But you knew that. Click through for official words.

The 2009 Subaru WRX STI Teases Us With A Second Dark Photo
The folks at Subaru enjoy torturing us, releasing a second official murky image of the WRX STI — this time some hot rear action in the dark to complement the hot up-top shot we saw last week. Neither of them are as good as our last set of spy shots for the new STI'ed WRX, but whatevs, we guess we'll take what we can get until we see this for reals on October 24th — right at the start of the Tokyo Auto Show.
