Subaru Impreza WRX STI 20th Anniversary Edition Unveiled

Subaru has unveiled the very limited Impreza WRX STI 20th Anniversary Edition in Japan.

Although it would be easy to assume that this 20th Anniversary Edition has been built to celebrate 20 years of the STI, but the original STI was only released in 1994. Instead the 20th Anniversary Edition STI celebrates the 20th anniversary of the founding of Subaru Tecnica International, Subaru's performance division in Mitaka, Tokyo.

Rumormill: Subaru pulling out of WRC tomorrow

Filed under: Motorsports, Subaru

Even more bad news (motor)sports fans. According to a report by Finnish sports site MT3.fi, Subaru will follow in the footsteps of Suzuki and pull out of the 2009 World Rally Championship (WRC) season. While Suzuki's declaration was a surprise, Subaru's exit from the world of rallying would be a serious blow to the sport as a whole and its fans in particular. A formal announcement will supposedly follow tomorrow, but we're keeping our fingers crossed that the Finns got this one wrong. Thanks to Eralp for the tip!

Taking a Look at Subaru's New SI-Drive

In Joe Wiesenfelder’s review of the 2007 Subaru Outback wagon, he spends some time breaking down how the company’s new SI-Drive works. When I first heard about the feature I thought it sounded like yet another gimmick that an automaker would say changes driving dynamics at a turn of the knob, but in reality there would be no noticeable difference. After I took it for a spin I agreed with Joe that it indeed alters the overall driving experience. 

Besides two different sport settings — one is the default — there is an Intelligent mode that decreases power and torque to help with mileage. Since Subarus have never been the leaders on fuel efficiency – mainly due to their standard all-wheel drive – this is a welcome feature that supposedly boosts mileage by 10%.

Check out Joe’s full review of the 2007 Subaru Outback to find out more about SI-Drive and, of course, what he thought of the rest of the car.
