Supposedly only a 'moderate price increase' ($500-1500 CDN) but firm pricing isn't going to be available until around May. The new '05s are supposedly going to be available for sale for June in Canada.

What about a wagon version? Must have a five door work.

 

I honestly wouldn't hold my breath for a STi wagon.

I'm still hoping that there will be a Legacy STi when I'm ready to jump ship over to a newer car assuming it's not priced like a new M3.

2 new colors (Grey Crystalline and a new name change for Black). Also, the center console will be modified, audio system changed for a more performing one (no more details). Minor esthetic retouches. The wheels will go from 7.5 to 8.0 to accomodate larger tires. There will be an AYC (Active Yaw Control) on the DCCD but with a Subaru's name.

 

Hey Istepnio, can u really notice a difference in performance handling when u adjust your DCCD...Also does the intercooler sprayer really make a difference too...I was browsing through a STI pamplet and i never knew they had those two things...Just wanted to see if they better the STI...thanks

 

The sprayer isn't noticable but I still use it on warmer days when car has been sitting with a hot engine warming up the IC. The DCCD is very noticable at the limit or when traction is drecreased.
