STI "new look" video..

SORRY IF THIS IS OLD NEWS,..

This video is great for seeing the car in action, and seeing the front lip spoiler that I'm sure everyone will want .

The second video is of a white STI spec-c with a lower lip spoiler,..this one is to die for,...as you'll see.

Hehe I didn't know you could read Japanese.

The first vid is of a former Japanese rally driver. The text says his rally debut was 1972. From '82 on, he was involved with "driving technologies". The second is Tommi Makkinen. pretty nice either way.. The test is at Nurburgring in Germany...

One more thing... A couple of comments.. Probably one of our more fluent Japanese speaking members can do a lot better explaining this than I can, but I picked up on a couple of points in the first video.. Of course I have nothing else to do on a Saturday morning. LOL

1.) The engine response is much better on this model. I'm guessing the "pickup" is related. He was talking about going 180kph easy.

2.) The understeer is reduced.

3.) The engine sound is a bit different.

4.) The front subframe had some design modifications to it and this has made the steering much sharper.
