It's the special edition WR1 color made just for Solberg winning the WRC championship.

I think it's almost exactly the same as Aqua blue on the Outback Sports.

Is that a 04 STI or 05 STI? Didn't Subaru upgrade the 05 so it handles better than 04?

Externally, the new ‘WR1’ is instantly recognisable thanks to its new Ice Blue Metallic paint plus driving lamps and a stainless steel mesh grille.

i think they're finally starting to get it... the Spec C is said to have eliminated the understeer, and the newer STi's are said to handle more like the Spec C in the future. In the mean time, we have to change our sways and alignment ourselves to correct it... ahh well...

Anyone notice the people in the background in the beginning? Clearly the guy behind the guy in the orange shirt is insane, and I am pretty sure that is one of the Spice girls. Yup, baby I think.

Yup safety. Understeer is easier to correct for most people. Also, you end up buying parts from them to correct it. Yeah, more money for them.
