Subaru will make just 600 copies of the newly released Impreza STI S204, all for the Japanese market. So it's not available in N-A.
Building on the success of last year’s S203, Subaru’s newly released $41,900 Impreza STI S204 gets a fully balanced and blueprinted 2.0-liter flat-four boosted by a larger twin-scroll turbocharger for a 320-hp punch and an impressively smooth power delivery across the powerband.
The exterior differentiates itself from run-of-the-mill Imprezas thanks to a carbon front splitter, rear spoiler and 18-inch BBS alloy wheels. The Pirelli PZero Corsa System offers tremendous levels of grip and hints at Subaru’s continuing tie with the Italian tiremaker in the 2006 World Rally Championship. The interior features carbon Recaro reclining racing seats.

so in essence is this kinda the same thing as the WRC?
That IS awsome. But, i'm yet to understand the pink STi theme, oh well.
I think it's interesting they chose to go with the 2.0L in lieu of the 2.5L

None of the JDM versions have ever been 2.5L. As far as i know there aren't any plans to convert either. There are many reasons.

Hmm that makes sense. I heard it had something to do with cherry blossoms though.

2.0 is the max displacement allowed in most of the wrc classes
Can't outrun ugly, no matter how fast it may be
on the contrary, i think the new ones are the best-looking imprezas yet. they have a more alfa-romeo, high-class look
Holy hell?! That STI is badass looking. A LOT better then the current STi.

POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK
ALL JDM STi/WRX's are 2.0l or less, because that makes them eligable to compete in the WRC where the max displacement allowable is 2.0l.
Yes the pink is the exact opposite of the World Rally Blue, plus it is called "cherry blossom" pink, as you know the cherry blossoms are a treasured time of the year in Japan.

i hate the center of the grill in the new subie's
head lights look like the saturn ion's
that S204 looks like fun
That car is fricken sweet. Put together like no other. I bow down to that car...
I don't like the new facia/grill Subaru has chosen for their new cars though. I really liked the previous generations looks. Can't argue with the performance though...
Once again....

Badass.
I just dont like the grill.
LS1's never blow up;
Spray that puppy... 02 sensors are overrated.
That honestly has to one one of the ugliest front end on any vehicle ever. The new subarus ALL look @!#$ retarded... I don't why they thought it was a good idea to make the front end of all the new cars look like thta but honestly that alone is enough to make me never get one.

Subaru's first 15 minutes of fame was in the first rap song,"Rapture" by Blondie. The man from mars was eating cars- mercurys and subaru. I drove a 1975 subaru from st.louis to los angeles in 1976, first front wheel drive car I ever drove. Never have like boxer engines.
