First Shipment of the 2007 STi Limited! The ULTIMATE DAILY DRIVER!
September 16, 2006
Subaru decided to offer something a little different on the 2007 STi models to bring in new converts to the "Scooby Fold".
Going after a slightly up scale clientelle (read those of us with a wife that wouldn't let us have a "freakin' huge wing"), Subaru decided to come out with the STi Limited...Read "no boy racer looks and leather"
On these STi's you get different features that not available on the regular STi. For exmaple, you get "STi" LEATHER seats (HEATED!), auxilary jack "plug" for your iPod, Black Brembo Brake Calipers, sleek Enkei 17" Wheels, a SUN ROOF, and a front lip spoiler just name a few.
Furthermore, nearly all the "STI" badging has been removed (the only STI badging left on the car are on the front grill, rear trunk lid, steering wheel, and the instrument cluster). Also, the flashing silver ring surrounding the STI logo on the steering wheel is now business like black!
Notice the reflection of the mountains on the STI logo on the steering wheel.
Even the floor mats are void of any STI logos...AND you do NOT get the cool STI key either (just the standard looking, business class key ;-)
Check out these other pics of the STI Limited shortly after the first SNOW at the ski resorts in UTAH!
Notice in the upper left hand corner of the picture below, you can see the SNOWBIRD TRAM going up the mountain!
As for the performance part, the 300hp and 300lb/ft of torque, the Limited stays the same as the regular STi. All of the other performance specs stay the same as well.
Subaru is only making 800 if the Limiteds available with 400 available in Aspen White, and 400 in Crystal Grey Metallic.
We were lucky enough to get number "194 of 800".
With the STi limited you get all the "Go" of the STi but not all the "Show". It's the perfect upgrade to the STI for those of us whose job or wife dictate the need of a "sleeper" with all the power and performance you'd see and feel with the standard STi.
We look forward to doing some mild modifacations to the Limited, such as an turbo-back exhaust, and a AccessPort from Cobb, Intake, etc.
