Look at the photo of the black automatic at the dealership posted by Camhall. Those look like the Enkeis on the Spec C

Maybe, but unless I an blind, and I have cleaned exactly the same rims 4 times this last month, they are BBS rims. The white Enkei rims are hot.
I hope that I am not confusing photos, I did go back 7 pages before posting this.
Cam did not post any pics that I could see, but evlgrl did.
Anyway, I am not trying to start a bloody MY11 rim flame war.
The car looks great. Any news on whether there will be a spec R and standard STi?
I wish they had included the digital climate control module that is in my wifes Exiga.
It seems like no AVN (audio/visual/nav) unit for STi either, maybe pointing to the price drop?

WRX getting the fat hips and 195 kw is just about making an STi redundant. $20000 for maybe $4000 in brakes?
Hello! No brainer.

apart from now sharing the same chassis? i think the differences are probably further then ever...

unlike an aussie my99/00 gc8, where it was merely a few engine bits and the gearbox ratios.

Not really, its just the same as it used to be where the wrx and STi
had slight body differences and the power increase may be up for the
wrx but it's still a lot less than the STi.

Better Suspenion, brakes, engine/power, interior, DCCD, rims etc etc is where
the extra $20k is from and worth every cent if you ask me.

Yeah me too, I was playing devil's advocate I suppose.
I love my ugly Betty, and I am just starting to come to terms with the wolf in sheep clothing that she presents.
My WRX is rude, the Sti is a lady (read dirty bitch).
