('93-'01) WRX STi available in November...

dubboy · 07-24-2001, 02:57 AM

Today during lunch time I drove down to Downtown Subaru in Oakland and spoke to their fleet manager named Joge pronounced Ho-Hay. We talked and shot the breeze. He then volunteered some very interesting info-- he asked whether I knew that there would be a 275HP WRX coming in Novemeber. I asked back "You mean the 280HP Sti?" Joge replied "Oh Yeah STi, I thought it was ST something..." I then asked if he was sure and he said my boss just gave us the news yesterday. In fact it will be here in November! I then said, "**** will you take a deposit?" He said he couldn't since there's no pricing on the car yet. Hmmm this is pretty good news but hey why not you guys call Joge to reconfirm???

Please tell this is true.....You'd think that subaru would make a public announcement.

Let me point out that during the whole conversation no YEAR was mentioned

It's the STX that comes out in November.

STX will be called the BRAT and won't be out until next year.

Motor trend had a blurb that said that the US would see the STi within a year. It was in the trends section when they were taliking about the WRX and EVO.

So? The Weekly World News says aliens gave birth to a three-headed baby in the White House. Don't believe everything you read, and only half of what you hear.

Isn't there still a ban on STi/EVO posts?
