Research: STI

So I started my researching different cars that have been influenced by rally driving. The STI is a big leader right now in the rally scene. The STI is a car made by Subaru. The full name is the Subaru Impreza WRX STI. The WRX stands for the World Rally Cross. The STI, an even more upgraded model, stands for Subaru Technica International. This is named after the Subaru team who made the world class rally car. "Part race car. Part race car. The new 2009 WRX STI is to rally what carnivore is to meat, bringing its turbocharged 305-hp SUBARU BOXER® engine and 290 lb-ft of torque onto the course." It features Brembo brakes, Recaro seats, and BBS wheels. What a perfect way to take to the streets with real performance. In a 6 speed manual transmission and symmetrical AWD this makes it an amazing rally toy right from the box!
