Subaru Australia is producing a range of custom motorsport vehicle packages based on the popular Impreza WRX STI spec.C – the Group N FIA homologated car developed by Fuji Heavy Industries in Japan.

Designed for customers wanting to purchase a motorsport vehicle to their desired specification, the base Impreza WRX STI spec.C is just a starting point. Available in limited numbers, the 2.0 litre Impreza is a lightweight vehicle designed specifically for motorsport* use. Variants range from the Subaru base motorsport package at $69,990 to the full Production World Rally Championship (PWRC) version at $195,000.

Subaru Managing Director Nick Senior said: “We’re catering for a broad spectrum of motorsport drivers, from committed enthusiasts to professionals with team backing looking for PWRC success. The Impreza WRX STI spec.C is an incredibly flexible package that can be tailored for everything from Targa events to gravel rally. There’s a long list of options and we believe there’s a dedicated audience that we’re keen to cater for.”

Great idea, but looking at the base model, you could do so much more by yourself.

I had a look at 1 of those at the Sydney autoshow a few months ago. Looks nice but the pricing is way to much.
