The Australian MY2002 Imprezas have deleted the A pillar radio antenna. It is now part of the rear glass.

Will the US be recieving an updated MY02 sometime soon, or will we just jump straight into MY03?

Its about time...that is my one 'major' dislike of the car (hey, there's not much to dislike about it, so you gotta be picky).:D

I think the only time I EVER listened to the radio in my WRX was on Sept 11th... other than that it stays tucked in the A-pillar.

no bigggie.

Mine stays tuck away too. I tend to listen to cds all the time.

I always keep my antenna down...the drag reduction is like bolting on an extra 12.37hp...HONEST!

But the most important thing is that they get revised manual gear ratios!

Here are the new ones (I haven't compared them to our current ones)

Remember, this is for next years Australian WRX...

pretty soon people with be putting spoilers and neon on their antennas and it will be your fault for reminding them that its there!

:devil:

Wow, I hope we get those gear ratio improvements for 03, including the j-spec grill! (and maybe black outlined lights?)

I think antenaes really ruin the lines of a car, and i really like the one on the legacy.
