2002 Subaru Impreza WRX STi

The STi has been a popular high performance road car in the Japanese domestic market since January 1994. This was when the first Impreza STi, with its refined engine & suspension, was launched by Subaru Tecnica International.

The new 2002 STi boasts improved driving performance with a new 6-speed manual, a specially developed engine, larger intercooler & a sports suspension. To commemorate the debut of the STi series to the European market, a Prodrive version is included in the lineup. The Prodrive version includes exclusive exterior items that were specially designed by Prodrive’s Peter Stevens. A limited number of 1000 Prodive units will be sold.
