blogentry-133713-0-56751400-1414641985_thumb.jpgFans of the previous Subaru Forester STi must be rejoicing now because Subaru will be launching a new STi version of the current fourth generation soon.

 

blogentry-133713-0-49449500-1414641989_thumb.jpgUnveiled in 2004, the last Forester STi was probably one of the sportiest SUVs out there. Unfortunately it was only meant for sale in Japan.

 

blogentry-133713-0-00010900-1414641994_thumb.jpgTeased ahead of its official world debut on November 25th, we expect the car to come with the 2.5-litre turbocharged boxer engine from the WRX STi which means it will have 296bhp and 407Nm of torque. Or it could use the Japan-only 2.0-litre turbocharged unit that is found in their variant of the WRX STi which outputs 304bhp and 422Nm of torque. Yup, the Japanese keep all the good stuff to themselves.

Will only come in via PI I guess.

Even then, I think no one will buy.

 

For the previous Forester STi, I know 1 PI boss buy in 1 unit to register to own-self drive and also to double-up as a test car for interested buyers. In the end, his own unit was the only unit he sold...

Surely can't be the only one?! I've seen an orange one driving around in the Holland area. Is that the one you're thinking of?

How about the legacy? The current version doesn't even have a turbo engine.

wah, it's really worth looking forward,

farking the Japanese keep all the good stuff to themselves,

I like 2.0-litre turbocharged outputs 304bhp and 422Nm, which is not lose new XC60,

another concern is what tramsmission the Forester STi, hopefully come with Manual 6sp and 8 spd AT

Likely to come with a 6spd Manual from the Impreza and a 8spd Sports Lineartronic CVT from the WRX S4/Levorg 2.0GT

  • 10 terrible wedding songs

    A song can have a catchy title and/or chorus, but its true meaning is only found within its lyrics. If you're planning your wedding, any song about breakups, cheating/infidelity, and being the other woman has no business being part of the reception playlist. Most people, however, take the song title to be its meaning and don't consider its actual content. Here are 10 songs that sound romantic but should be avoided. 10) Irreplaceable – Beyoncé Don't mistake this for being

    Challenging myself to a week without coffee or sweetened drinks

    Sometimes, the key to spicing up your life can take a very simple and mundane form. Or in the case of a challenge I embarked on in early-July, a bland and literally tasteless one. Feeling sometime in mid-June that I had been swept up too mindlessly by the push-and-pull of the everyday, and seeing that I *had* to reclaim some sense of agency with the way I lived, I eventually decided: I would allow myself only water as a drink. I'm pretty sure Yakun and Toast Box lost a fair bit o
