WRX STI tS TYPE RA revealed

Subaru WRX STi tS TYPE RA NBR Challenge Package

It seems that the current generation WRX STi is approaching to the end and a brand new replacement is coming next year but before that, here comes the curtain call for the current WRX STi. Say hello to the WRX STi's farewell machine, the WRX STi tS TYPE RA.

Exclusively for the Japanese market and limited to 300 units, the tS TYPE RA uses the WRX STi 4-door GVB as its basis and for this swan song, the new tS comes with special badges on the grille and on the back, STi emblem side garnish colored in black, and black side view mirrors. What's more, the TYPE RA features a host of upgraded suspension treatments, the use of Potenza RE070 tires, Vehicle Dynamics Control, LSD,  close-ratio 6-speed gearbox, and other upgrades for this swan song.

There's also a special NBR CHALLENGE PACAKGE which comes with 18-inch BBS forged aluminum rims, carbon rear wing, NBR CHALLENGE Decal, and optional RECARO seats.

You can still expect the same 308PS 2.0L boxer turbo engine that powers it.

Exclusive to the TYPE RA is the special Tangerine Orange Pearl exterior color in addition to the Satin White Pearl and WR Blue Mica.

Prices start at 4,410,000 Japanese Yen up to 5,082,000 Yen for the NBR Package with RECARO seats.
