2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi spec C Type RA-R

Besides having every letter of the alphabet this latest incarnation of the Impreza WRX STi, the spec C Type RA-R has the heavily reworked 2.0L flat-four of last year's Impreza S204 producing 320Hp @ 6.400 rpm and 44,0 kgm of toque @ 4.400. That's not the only thing in common that these two versions have, as both are limited production editions offered solely in Japan -though the spec C Type RA-R will be more rare as only 300 examples will be built in comparison to the 600 S204's.


Besides the upgraded engine, the RA-R gets a retuned suspension, lowered body (by 15mm) and 18" white coloured rims. Talking about colours, the spec C Type RA-R will be solely available in yellow, white & blue mica.


Although the body is practically intact in comparison with the "base" STi- as the only additions are a black coloured front lip spoiler, a roof scoop and the red accent surrounding the centre grille- Subaru has a hefty optional list. You can add a carbon fibre rear-deck spoiler, BBS style alloys, and of course, the "you've got to have them", Recaro buckets. Via Autoblog.com
