Thought I might post this up here for those interested in what the new Aus version of the Tuned By STi Forester may be like inside and out, this may have been posted elsewhere but I haven't seen it so I apologise in advance.

It looks ok but still has a lot of failings like lack of Brembos, 225/55R17 rims an tyres, auto box and no 6speed and only 193kw plus alot of other extras missing that you'd expect would be included.

There is also a new WRX STi tS version being released in Japan with a stock carbon fibre roof just like the concept car did a few months back.

has the ol important sti start stop engine button, gives it a big facebook like thumb up!

If they want a 5 star ANCAP rating in AUS it won't come with the stop/start button.

My bet when it's released it doesn't.

Meh me dont likey..seats are gay as! I guess im comparing with a foz sti though.. Meh!

Cheers for posting btw

Yeah old news, been out about a month or so since the Sydney Motor Show. Piss-weak attempt at a performance variant, almost embarrassing to wear the STi badge as there's nothing STi about it. WRX engine is a step in the right direction but still plenty of things missing.

If I remember correctly the car has been raised slightly too...apparently to make it easier for occupants to get in/out. That tells me they expect older people to buy it mainly.

Loving the 4WD size enkies

I shouldn't say that, it looks nice ..but missing all the real mans stuff.
