Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2011

THE WING IS BACK! SUBARU DEBUTS NEW 4-DOOR IMPREZA® WRX® STI® MODEL FOR 2011


First Time Subaru Performance Flagship Offered in Two Body Styles:

New WRX STI Four-Door with Wide-Body Design
Retuned Suspension for Even Sharper Handling

New York, April 1, 2010 – Subaru of America today introduced a new 4-door version of the Impreza WRX STI performance flagship model. This will be the first time that the WRX STI has been offered in two body styles (5-door and 4-door). In addition to the new styling, the 2011 WRX STI features heavily revised suspension tuning and lighter 18-inch wheels for even sharper handling.

The WRX STI has been a recipient of continuous improvement since its introduction. Most recently, the 2010 WRX STI Special Edition previewed some of the suspension enhancements now migrated to the 2011 WRX STI. Thorough and painstakingly detailed chassis development, including testing on Germany’s famed Nurburgring racetrack, has resulted in the best-handling Impreza WRX STI models Subaru has ever offered.
