Subaru To Unveil Carbon Imprezza


Tokyo will host the annual Tokyo Motor Show this October, and Subaru are about to make a new unveiling. They will unveil their new Imprezza WRX STI Carbon Edition.

The name and looks of this car make it an exciting release from Subaru. But, sadly it does not live up to its name and heritage. While the centre of gravity is lowered due to the carbon roof, the rest of the car fails to impress.

Subaru have said that the car will have a five-speed automatic gearbox, with no manual expected to be on the cards. The interior also destroys any hope of the car being light weight, the interior is a full of chunky suede items throughout.

Subaru's word is that the car is designed to be on offer to a wider range of Subaru fans wanting a softer Imprezza. The car has no plans on being sold on the UK market, but by the specifications, I don't think we want it either. A Subaru Imprezza is a car that is meant for the car enthusiast wanting a challenge.
