Subaru WRX S4 STI Sport # released in Japan, production limited to 500 units

The famous Japanese auto giant, Subaru, has come up with WRX S4 STI Sport # in Japan. The saddest lead is, the company has decided that only 500 units will be headed for production. The main reason behind adding # in this limited-edition beauty is to hint the car’s sharp design. This car is identical to the regular  WRX S4 STI Sport, which was released on the domestic market two years ago. 

The WRX S4 STI Sport # is available in four colour options including Ceramic White, Ice Silver Metallic, Crystal Black Silica, and Blue Pearl. At the front, there is a flexible strut tower bar, while the flexible draw stiffeners are offered on both the ends. The front splitter is now larger than before and gets gloss black paint. The main grille is painted on Dark Grey Silica. The car rides on black multi-spoke aluminium alloy wheels of 18-inch.

Getting inside, the WRX S4 STI Sport # features two Recaro seats with leather and Ultrasuede upholstery. The seats further have embroidered STI logos along with silver stitching for better contrast. The same design is also provided on the gear knob and steering wheel. Furthermore, it gets EyeSight safety suite and driver assistance system as standard.

The WRX S4 STI Sport # features the same engine as the regular one. The 2.0-litre FA20 four-cylinder turbocharged engine still churns out a maximum power of 300 PS at 5,600 rpm and peak torque of 400 Nm between 2,000 and 4,800 rpm. There is also a Lineartronic CVT, which is being paired with the engine. 

An oil cooler differentiates the regular and # model. Also, the WRX S4 STI Sport # model comes with an STI performance exhaust having four tips and a better flowing air intake filter.

The WRX S4 STI Sport # is priced at 4.741 million yen, which is equal to 61,543.61 SGD in Singapore. The sale will begin from August 2020.
