red and white STI?

I saw a red STi with white racing stripes, oh, and it was an '05 body style. I want to know if it is a "special" model or just a different paint scheme. Im not sure where to find something like this on the forums otherwise I wouldnt be asking. Id appreciate it if someone could tell me what it is.

Sounds like the ESX Sti. It's a shop modded STi if it was a legit one.

Not too sure, but they sell for about $45,000 or so if I remember correctly.

Well put

You can make the same car yourself for much cheaper (sans the white stripes).
