Subaru's recently-revealed Forester tS will soon be joined by a new addition to the Impreza line, with the company's Japanese headquarters offering a single teaser image this week of the upcoming WRX STI tS.

The 'tS' in the new special edition WRX's name stands for 'tuned by STI' - an odd name for an already STI-badged and developed model.

Taking a leaf from the BMW M3's book, the WRX STI tS will feature at least one major modification: a carbon-fibre roof. Beyond that, Subaru has offered little. The tS' availability in both manual and automatic form ('A-Line' in Japan) has been confirmed, however.

Australia

While a version of the Forester tS is anticipated to make an Australian debut sometime in 2011, Subaru Australia's David Rowley has confirmed to TMR today that there are no plans to offer the tweaked WRX STI tS locally.
