I've seen a lot of modded WRX's, but I think this one takes the cake for the most modded. Can't believe it

I like how the camera is mounted on the rollover(?) bar from the rear

What's the deal with the door handles on the rear passenger doors? It looks like they're shaved off or something

I don't see any explicit nitrous lines on the intake pipe. The intercooler spray bar is there tho.

That type of steering wheel was very popular in the late 70's and early 80's....before the age of air bags. A number of manufacturers had it either standard or optional. My brother at the time had a Renault with a factory-equipped wheel almost identical to that.

He's talking about the digital display on the wheel not the momo wheel itself as those have been around forever...

I'm in with that STI...

That is some crazy piping under the hood. Looks like a blue snakes nest.

I don't really like the bodykit but the rest of the car looks like it had a lot of time and money invested. for that.
