08 sti spec c

one would think the extra coin would merit some tail tint or perhaps smoked tails altogether. glad to see they've shed some poundage off vs. the base sti though. the rear diffuser looks out of place, much like the rest of the rear of the car.

to me it looks like with the wheels and the six pistons to be the new ra-r. unless they are now base spec-c staples. regardless it's another flippin hawt jdm/world model that we won't ever see thanks to the ftards at soa.

yeah, it's weird. you would think it would come with a stiffer spring setup than a base sti or even a coilover setup. the way the wheels are tucked looks like the pics of the us mags testing the usdm sedan wrx.
