Subaru WRX STI tS announced for Japan

Subaru has released the first details about the 2011 WRX STI tS.

Based on the WRX STI sedan, the special edition prominently features a carbon fiber roof, an aluminum hood, a front lip spoiler, an STI-tuned suspension, and 18-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's RECARO sport seats, a push-button ignition, and unique sill plates.

The tS is powered by a twin-scroll turbocharged 2.0-liter Boxer engine with 227 kW (308 PS / 304 hp) and 430 Nm (317 lb-ft) of torque. On the other hand, the A-Line tS uses a single-scroll turbocharged 2.5-liter with 221 kW (300 PS / 296 hp) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft). As you've probably guessed, the tS is connected to a six-speed manual transmission while the A-Line is backed up by a five-speed automatic.

On sale next month, the special editions will be priced from 4,020,000 yen ($48,000 / €36,520) and production is limited to 400 units.

I kinda like it. Shame I will probably never see one since there will only be 400.

Not surprised that there is yet another overseas Special Edition (Limited Edition) Model that the US will NEVER see.

Stupid. More overpriced limited editions from Subaru. And what's with the 2.5l only coming in auto.

Sweet though... I'm more interested in the Turbo diesel legacy making it over here.

And recaro seats should be in ALL sti level cars. The evo gets dope seats. Hell the Challenger rt gets dope seats and gti has had recaro for years.

Amen to auto and seats, I honestly am rather not interested in the limited/special editions, especially considering their prices.
