Appreciate your help on this thread.
Do you think there will be ANY chance Subaru will do a u-turn on the gold alloys? |
Tell me, do the gold wheels make it go faster?

Imagine the conversion, What do you drive? A Subaru WRX STI. Is it Blue with gold wheels? |
You've been driving a Scooby too long mate.

So the salesman told me when he was trying to flog me the wheel upgrade last week. |
Me personally would ask for Saturn black wheels as part of the deal. Don't get me wrong gold look nice with rally blue but I like to be different and not follow the crowd.
|
Nice little video....
|
Perkele! (As Tommi used to say.)
|
Huh? Devil?
Explain please? |
Finns swear by invoking devils, and when Tommi Makinen went off, he often said "Perkele".
So far as I know, he never explained the meaning of the word when asked on TV, so English speakers assumed that it'd be ruder to our ears than it is, though to Finnish ears the word does sound rude. |
Still can't believe we are this close to the uk launch, and still the uk subaru website has nothing more than was on there 2 months ago.
|
That's IM for you. They have lost the plot when it comes to marketing the STI and customers.
|
Lost the plot full stop, and should be ashamed of themselves.
|
so we are getting the 2.5 in the UK
nothing has changed |
Yep, looks like grey wheels (they may even be black) and EJ257.........................

Is it really the EJ257? Surely it'll be an evolution of the 2.5l engine with a few tweaks.

Have Subaru not taken any lessons from the past few years. Marketing disaster and the good old EJ257. Plus I would be surprised if there isn't more disappointment to come.
On the plus side, I quite like the front end and the steering wheel. |
Have to admit I prefer the dark grey/black wheels to the gold, just need confirmation of any power upgrade or any other options and may tempted to return to the fold later in the year.
congratulations to all who have secured first deliveries and look forward to reviews of the uk model Graham |
That'll be me then! Wahoo!
One thing that bothers me though. I wasn't given an options list when I ordered mine in January. Will mine be getting built now or what? Is it only the 2nd wave of orders that will get the options list? |
Is it confirmed that the first batch has sold out?
If so when is the next expected batch due? had a blue bug wrx then black hawk sti so back to the blue again if I take the plunge. Graham |

Good Luck but I think it will still be in the highest bracket.
it will be over 400 quid a year in road tax then! |
There embarrassed I bet.
I,ll never pay 465 a year again, it's a major outlay for rd tax that, |

:D :D The marketting dept just can't get it right can they Subaru need a Hugh overhaul from grass routes to sort the mess they have created and still they don't seem to listern They should have a member if staff reading forums to see where they go wrong Bad job of customers don't even though of they are not getting gold alloys ( which do make th car go faster) and tax bracket although I'm sure it will be the top one If a member of Subaru uk had came in here and prehaps reassured people of a new engine or modifications do it wouldn't go pop They could of also offered a 5year warrenty Maybe subaru uk should get their act together and find out why their cars aren't really selling Look back to 1999/2000 and the good old days |
I doubt any will pay any interest until they sack off the ej25, for a new model.....
I don't want tweaks I want a new block, why or why they don't give us the Japanese one I,ll never know... |
