First Look! MY05 Impreza STi Pics!

Thanks to one of our members, sloppyjoe, we can see the soon to be released MY05 Impreza STi. Most of the changes seem to be cosmetic and interior. The interior changes resemble those of MY05 Legacys. I am sure that more pics will appear on the WWW shortly.

For more pics, please check out this thread: https://www.i-club.com/forums/showth...threadid=57602

Once again, thanks, sloppyjoe!

Can anyone confirm the rumor that the bolt pattern has changed, and more specifically, has the offset changed? Meaning, can a 05 STi owner bolt up wheels from a Evo or FD w/ out rubbing? (Those cars don't need as much offset as our Scoobies.)

Altough, I am not really sure about the offset. It is safe to say that it is between 47 to 51. Evos need an offset in the area of 33 to 40. So Evo wheels will still not work altough they share the same bolt pattern

The Bolt pattern has changed on the BBS wheel. It is officially a 5x114.3 now. It still retains the 53mm offset of the wheel and it now has STi molded in two places between the spokes of the wheel. It is a 17x8 as I have seen and already test driven one. There are many other changes to the rear parallel links. They are now aluminum links which lighten things up the rear a bit.

Man I love the 04 so much on the interior but the 05 had more cup holders on the back and the front, and It's going to be the same HP on the new one too.

I love my new 04 WRX, I have the Premium package but I'll love to have the STI.
