Car Info: 2005 WR blue WRX w/ premium package
im really wondering if u guys know when the next my 05 wrx will be coming out? i was hoping april so that i can get an 04 wrx in late march to get the best prices on the wrx. im hoping to pay around 21.5-22.5 for it, not including ttl. ive seen the 03 wrx goin for 4-5k off at those prices in may of this year when the 04 came out, but i cant wait to get it this spring. i heard that if ppl can get the car for those prices, then they can get it at that price no matter when, they dont have to wait for any clearance prices. is this true? thanks for any input.

I picked up my wagon for I think 22.5, it was 24 OTD. Just negotiate and let them know you are, 22.5 for your info is reasonable and still earns them a profit. If they really want a sell theyll sell it. Go at the end of the month...
As said by a senior source at Subaru, "Subaru has something quite special in the pipeline. We're now working on a 3.0-litre turbo Impreza for Japan and Europe that will generate in excess of 350bhp."
"Unfortunately, we're having teething problems with the transmission as the current WRX STi six-speed box isn't capable of handling the torque the engine produces." Several solutions are being investigated, with the most popular being to ask a company such as Getrag, which has much experience in building heavy-duty gearboxes, to work on the transmission.
But before you race down to your nearest dealer, bear in mind how long this is likely to take. Development of the car is said to be very complicated. Our source suggests we won't see the 3.0-litre turbo powering a Subaru until the next Impreza model change, due in 2007.
Also, out in Japan and Europe, is the Subaru Impreza WRX STi Spec C Limited. Its I4, 2.0L engine produces 335 hp @ 7000 rpm,
280 ft lb @ 3750 rpm, with 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and top speed of 160 mph (est).
No word on US launches yet.
Thought you might want to know if you already didn't
i already posted this before, but here is an update or for those who didnt see it
