Many things put a smile on the face of an automotive enthusiast, and sitting at the very top of that list is the growl of a boxer engine that these cars have inherited. Most of us are aware of Subaru's legacy of building rally weapons, and, over the years, this very car, the WRX STI, has kept the Japanese automaker relevant. The WRX STI received several facelifts before it came to look like the car, for example, known famously as the 'Hawkeye' Subie. It is an absolute icon in JDM culture, known for its tunability and fierce rivalry against the legendary Mitsubishi Evolution. This particular example of a 2007 Subaru WRX STI example is the result of tasteful modifications, and it is currently up for sale.
Exterior and Interior
The Hawkeye Subaru WRX STI, introduced in 2006 as the second facelift, is a popular sports car known for its sleek and aggressive exterior design. The front fascia features a black mesh grille, a hood scoop, and angular headlights that give the car an imposing look. The front bumper, too, has a larger air intake which adds to the aggressive look. The Subaru's side profile is naturally aggressive, but this 2007 Subaru WRX STI in particular is sporting an aftermarket body kit and fenders. The car's primary color is Crystal Gray Metallic, with the hood and boot lid in carbon fiber. The car sits on a set of black Circuit Racing wheels wrapped in Yokohama performance tires. The 2007 Subaru WRX STI has an interior designed to match its sporty exterior styling. The car seats five people, with the front seats featuring deep bolsters for added support during high-speed driving. The interior is trimmed in black and blue upholstery and features a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The dashboard is well-laid-out and features easy-to-read gauges, with a central LCD that shows various performance metrics.
Engine
The star of this machine of course is the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder Boxer engine that has a company of aftermarket components adding to the overall engine output. Included in the build is a Cobb Access Port, waking up the motor with an aftermarket Turbo, Intercooler, Cold Air Intake, Downpipe and Blow Off Valve. The sophisticated all-wheel-drive system paired with its short throw, six-speed manual transmission makes this car one of the most capable vehicles on the world rally stage, even though this example has been tweaked to suit asphalt conditions.
The Subaru WRX STI has long been one of the most celebrated all-wheel-drive performance cars ever produced, earning its reputation through rally competition and a devoted enthusiast following. By 2013, the STI had evolved into a refined yet highly capable sport sedan that retained the raw driving experience that made the nameplate famous. This 2013 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Sedan is finished in the iconic WR Blue Pearl, a color synonymous with Subaru’s World Rally Championship heritage. Showing 172,492 miles, this STI features desirable factory equipment including Alcantara and leather-trimmed seating surfaces, a factory STI short throw shifter, and the signature symmetrical all-wheel-drive system. For buyers seeking a practical four-door performance car with genuine motorsports DNA, this STI remains one of the most compelling options of its era.
It’s David from David and Goliath here today with us. This gutsy little Matte Gray 2010 Subaru Impreza WRX STI packs a punch that can literally take down giants from several classes above. But that’s been the Subaru Impreza WRX STI’s forte since it launched way back in 1992. Today’s example comes with some superb modifications that really take it into a new level of performance. The current owner reports that the car is a garage kept, single owner car with all records and paperwork available. This includes records of not only oil changes and maintenance items, but all the mods done to this 143,000-mile machine from Cary, North Carolina. Oh, and dyno tests reportedly show nearly 500 horses at the wheels! Could you ask for more Japanese hot hatch perfection? We doubt it…
Widely known as one of the fastest point-to-point cars across less than perfect roads, the Subaru Impreza WRX STI is a high-performance derivative of Subaru’s bread-and-butter Impreza sedan and wagon. Sporting a burbly turbocharged flat-four engine and a grippy all-wheel drive system, an Impreza WRX STI is a thrilling machine to be piloting. Naturally, there’s endless possibilities for customization and upgrades, as evidenced by this 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI that’s for sale with us. The car comes with over 110,000 miles on the clock, but that’s nothing for a well-maintained example such as this one.

Cars with character are slowly becoming a thing of the past; regulations call for machines stripped of what makes them driver cars, and changing customer tastes mean popular marques are slowly making their way off the production lines. Present today is this 2017 Subaru WRX STI. Hailing from Clayton, North Carolina, this Japanese weapon of performance is the perfect drag-strip dasher, track weapon, or even the perfect way to take on the great outdoors in style.
