Subaru announces 2008 WRX STI prices
SUBARU LAUNCHES NEXT-GENERATION IMPREZA WRX STI
http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/l...ced-at-34-995/
• All-New Platform with Competition-Inspired 5-Door Body
• 305-HP Intercooled / Turbocharged Boxer Engine
• New Multi-Mode DCCD All-Wheel Drive System and VDC
• New Double-Wishbone Rear Suspension and 18-Inch Wheels
The Subaru Impreza STI just made its North American debut, and for those of us here in the States, life is good. Just like the JDM version, the STI benefits from a wider track and a longer wheelbase, but power is provided by Subaru's 2.5-liter boxer four making 305 hp and 290 lb.-ft. of torque. The sprint to sixty will be dispatched in 4.9 seconds, and Subie execs are touting the engine's new torque characteristics as more tractable and effortlessly exciting. Aluminum suspension components partner with inverted struts to keep all four wheels planted and providing motivation, while a redesigned DCCD allows drivers to select six different differential settings.
Pricing has been set at $34,995 and Subaru began taking orders today.

Is it just me or what? I feel like this new STI is the best looking STI ever. It looks super sporty, I like it more than the new EVO X. Its horsepower and torque output and even prices are right on par with IS350 and G35 sedan and 335i, although it is not as luxurious as those.

As for price, yeah, I guess 40k is now the new 30k...
