WANT: Subaru Legacy STI S402

Autoblog posting: JDM Goodness: Subaru Legacy STI S402

Subaru is taunting us again with yet another limited-edition model that we'll likely never see Stateside. The Legacy STI S402 will be limited to (appropriately) 402 units in both sedan and wagon trim, featuring the STI's turbocharged, 2.5-liter flat-four. Unlike some of the other "special" Subies, the S402 Legacy means business. To begin with, the front fenders have been widened by 20mm, the steering ratio has been reduced to 13:1 and Bilstein shocks are fitted at all four corners, along with 18-inch BBS wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE050A rubber. The brakes have been upgraded to units from Brembo, with six-piston calipers up front and two-pot calipers in the rear gripping upgraded rotors. Aside from all the required badging, Subaru has fitted new gauges to the IP, along with a MOMO steering wheel and aluminum shift knob.

Sales begin in Japan on June 27th, with prices starting ¥5,491,500 for the wagon and ¥5,355,000 for the sedan. We'll take one of each, thank you very much.

i don't normally look at a bunch of pics of a hot car and get all hot and bothered over brakes, but 6 pots give me half a stack...

6 pots (in a color that doesn't make me cringe) and 2 piece rotors.

Yeah, it is muy caliente!...but won't hit our shores unless someone shells out $$$$$ to import it (if they are even lucky enough to get one of the 402 made ). I would take the wagon version

I never thought I'd refer to calipers as sexy but, DAMN! Now all they need to do is make it a cuope and I'll be all over it.
