Always WRX STI (Japanese model shown) bold yet purposeful by design. The chiselled exterior design of the WRX and WRX STI reflects both their motorsport pedigree and the latest in aerodynamics. A wide stance and short overhangs instill the vehicles with high-speed stability and excellent manoeuvrability. The sculpted front bumper, side sills and spoiler generate increased road-holding, while the new design of the 4-door WRX STI, with its massive rear–wing spoiler, provides even greater downforce at elevated speeds. Large air intakes on both cars feed the intercoolers and cool the engines. Prominent wheel arches with functional cooling vents and ducts manage airflow around the large front wheels, while drawing heat away from the engine. Everything has a purpose here — and the purpose is serious performance. 9
