the new special editions are retarded just get rid if the itions and now its special ed. cause that's what it is, you get new paint that's not really worth it and interior color, its crap i should know cause i own one of the last good special eds, only mines not that retarded, 2010 sti se/Spec c, but mine came with the tighter stiffer JDM suspension, thicker sways not by much and tighter bushings as well, and weight reduction, the only thing im missing to be spec c is the twin-scroll and ecu. so ya they leave out the good stuff, but they didn't even put anything in the new ones, SE is supposed to be special compared to the average subie out there, o well cant have it all right. that's my 2 cents.

 

this is what it reminded me of
with cup edition decals yeah?

 

I like it.

I think this is up there with one of my favorite colors.

I wonder if it's the same orange that's on the Crosstrek.



Seeing that in person, it's not a bad color.


Really reminds me of Sonic Yellow. I'd love to have a Sonic Yellow WRX.

 

I like the idea of the XV more than the new Fozzy, and on that car the color doesn't look bad. IMO. I see a sonic yellow wagon every morning on the way to work. I'll have to snap a pic, because it does look very nice.

 

I saw the cross trek and said the same thing.... for orange... not bad.

But I like this color better...


or...

 

I'd drive this in orange.

 

The orange on the VX doesn't look that bad at all. I'm not that sure about the orange on the WRX/STI, though.

 

maybe they were into this.

 

Stupid subaru. Why not make a special edition STI with 350hp instead!

 

Limerock edition m3


m3 gts

 

The XV is legit in person, the orange and khaki both look really good.
I agree though the "Special Edition" WRX should have had some sort of performance boost. They need to get back to there roots when special edition meant a numbered Colin McRae edition souped up impreza.

 

Yeah I was surprised. I'd honestly consider getting an XV to replace my wagon... as is. No turbo.

Put a nice rack on it. A nice light set up. Change the wheels. But a less sissy sounding exhaust on it... some headers and a tune. Just roll with it. Be fun as hell. Totally different than driving my wagon. No more canyon smashing but a lot more snow/mud smashing. LOL!

It's GOT to have a tub option though. That hatch area is an absolute joke. Only way my dog fits in the car is with the seats down. Family trips would absolutely require a tub. Hell snowboard trips would require something up top. LOL.

But I am kicking it around. Depends on what they do with it and the WRX hatch over the next 2 years.

 

Ewwww. Why no stripped down se with tighter suspension and a better tune. I am writing soa a letter.

 

Subaru does have stuff like that, but not in the US.

 

I like that they're trying something different Buuuut I think they overdid it with the orange with matching interior. Maybe a special edition with power AND suspension upgrades and a less tacky color would be awesome!
