2014 Subaru WRX STI: Price And Features For Australia

$49,990 2014 WRX STI HITS AUSTRALIA

Subaru’s all-new WRX STI performance hero is now on sale in Australia, sliding in above the regular WRX with a $49,990 price tag.

At that price, the new STI enters with a $11,000 premium over the new WRX - while slashing a massive $10,000 off the old WRX STI’s launch price.

By comparison, Volkswagen's new all-wheel-drive 206kW Golf R is priced at $51,990, and Mitsubishi's ageing Evolution - soon to be retired - begins at $56,990.

There's also a new Premium model, replacing the Spec R grade in the outgoing line-up, which is an even more compelling $11,000 cheaper than before. 

And while power is again provided by the EJ25 turbo 2.5 litre four-cylinder boxer, the new STI brings a host of new features well beyond the standard package of the previous model.

Oh, and if that big rear wing is a little too racey for you, Subaru now offers the first-time-ever option to order your WRX STI without it. (Are they mad? - Ed.)
