  • It's not even a wagon... it's called a hatchback. Wagons are those shitty cars your grandma drives. :P

  • @GDarrenn They used to be. Now wagons are things like the Audi A4, S4, RS6 and WRX. You get the space of an SUV with the handling and MPG of a car. And they look good. USA needs to realize wagons are great cars. I live in California, for the record.

  • awesome !.

    sounds liked a tamed Beast !. that is wicked Cool !

  • All Subies should sound like this :)

  • why is there a red triangle only in the left taillight

  • I think it does sound like a v8 but only on idle. when revving it sounds better that a v8

  • its more pleasing to the ear than moaning.

  • I love her more than I love my girlfriend.

  • wrong this should be on redtube this is porn :D car porn

  • sounds siiiick at idle

  • Sounds really nice, although I really hate the wagon body style.. I think the hatchbacks have the straight 4 unlike the older models with the boxer engine

  • @Scuby04 subaru doesnt use a straight four, only a boxer

  • @Scuby04 wtf straight 4? it's the same engine as in the GD. boxer 2.5l turbo.

  • Hatchbacks are for the win.

  • the one time i saw it bounce off the rev limiter i think i had an epiphany, that i should have had a while ago....

    when a car revs too high do the spark plugs stop burning fuel and the extra gas goes straight to the exaust to burn and that was the little bit of smoke?

  • can you tell me if anything else has been done to this sti? other than the muffler.

  • why buy a V8? might as well get a subaru that can sound so much better

  • excelent and fucking sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The car is almost perfect, but those tail-lights are god awful.

  • yeaht thats the only thing disappointing about the car those taillights suck ass but the mostly red ones are a little better than these

  • sounds badass

  • just to throw it out there.. sti hoods are lighter than carbon fiber.. dont understand why people would put carbon fiber besides spending excess money just for the look

  • generally speaking people do it because they are stupid, hahahahaha. But yeah you are right

  • 08+ STi hoods are actually 22lbs heavier than the new Seibon hoods. They are no longer aluminum.

  • @boozy04 get fukd bro dont rain on these cats parade

  • @edwardcphipps not sure what you're talking about?

  • @edwardcphipps neither do i

  • that's the same colour I have, would look sweet with a carbon hood and trunk

  • i hate hatchbacks....

    but still nice!

  • Sweet!

  • Yup, they changed to a hatchback cuz the hatchback body's got a stiffer torsional rigidity (meaning less weight transfer during turns).

    I hate the looks of the headlights tho.

  • The headlights are fine its the rear lights that have to be changed

  • The rear lights can be tinted for like $50.

  • 50 bucks or not they need to change it so its red stock, the clear look just doesnt look that good

  • why are u lying? Borla hasn't even produced an exhaust for the 08 sti yet...

  • they have now. check their site.

    And I think the poster was talking about Borla Mufflers. Read the info >>

  • Yea, cause having the car sit in a parking lot, while red lining it is really cool.

    How about hearing it drive away from the camera, or drive past?

  • not a big fan of the wagon, but its dif, and subaru wanted to go in a dif direction. they saw how well the mazdaspeed 3 was selling, so I think.....i think they changed for that reason, not for sure though,

  • they changed it because hatchbacks are more dominant in rally racing

  • I didnt know that, but I dont see very many hatch's in rally races. anyway, it does look good but I wouldnt get the sti wagon, I wouldnt mind the mazdaspeed3. even with less power and a front wheel drive, I have driven one and I must say, bravo for mazda building a solid turbo car.

  • Then you clearly haven't been watching rally in the last 2-3 years.

  • they change the style for better performance dude..

  • yes, subaru and mitsubishi are always trying to improve performance. but, i believe they did this to attrack a different fan base. a lot of people are now going to the mazdaspeed 3, including myself. i have a 2009 and am very happy with it. cost 10,000 less than a STI. the wrx and now the lancer ralliart compare to the mazda. i test drove all three cars before buying and found the lancer and mazda more superior. choose the mazda cause of a freinds father being a dealer and got a GREAT deal.

  • Very funny. You're right about 10k less but that's it.

  • LOL Mazdaspeed has FWD

    Fail

  • obviously you don't drive too hard cuz nothing sucks more than going balls out into a turn with a fwd and it plows ahead like a wet turd and you gotta pull the e-brake to get the ass end out(lame) AWD FTW... no comparison son!!!

  • yes yes, awd is great. it is far superior to fwd. no doubt about it, but, i never said anything about this, did I? NO. I just said that I liked the mitsu and mazda better than the wrx and sti. what do you mean pull the e-brake? you dont pull the e-brake on a turn unless you want to spin out? You gun the throttle if you fish tail on a turn. obviously you never driven a car that requires skills.

  • HAHA, you don't fishtail with fwd.. the front end just plows ahead. More gas makes it worst since it spins out and you get no traction for the turn. Wow, you must be a noob with his first car or something and you don't know how to drive your shit sideways. I've owned an 03 Maxima with 260hp and before that was an '09 Civic with no hp. I vowed to never own one again. And yes, when you QUICKLY pull the e-brake in an agressive turn it kicks your ass end out and THEN you can gas it. FWD is for girls

  • what are you talkin about? you do fishtail on a fwd car. to correct it, you have to counter steer and gun the shit of the car. the front wheels will pull the car forward. If you go into a turn, don't let go of the gas. or you will lose the back end of the car. sways bars? look this up. you obviously have no clue. so you owned a 2003 maxima...and before that a 2009 civic? hows that possible? a 09 before a 03? please don't make up shit. you don't have to lie on youtube and not impress me.

  • '99 Civic... my bad. I have never driven a fwd that kicks the ass end out in a turn. It's always a bad case of understeer and torque steer all in one. One thing I know for sure, when your front wheels are spinning in a turn, the car plows ahead instead of pointing where you want to go. Only when the back wheels are spinning or locked(e-brake) then the ass end will kick out. At that point, yes you pin it out. The fwd platform was designed for economy, not performance. WRX>MAZDA no contest

  • yeah, awd will always be so mich better compared to fwd. and yes, I would of gotten the sti but the money was a problem. I spent 10,000 less for a a car I love. I wish i would of known about the ralliart, which is a nice car also. I see what you mean about the fwd cars. good stuff.

  • Not saying the Mazda's a pos, but isn't the WRX the same money? Is the ralliart awd? I'm only familiar with the STI and Evo. The Mazda is a great car for the money btw. Don't let a douche like me tell you any different

  • your not a douche, more of a jerk. lol, jk. wrx is the same money, but lot slower. the mzdspeed3 pulls on the sti when on a role. from a dig, the sti smokes the ms3. the ralliart is awd and a great car. I would of gotten that one if I waited. the evo was selling for under 30,000 just cause mitsu overstocked their evo's. I had 2 friends buy evo's the same say at the same dealer and got the same deal. under 30,000.

  • I was told when I bought my '09 STI by the dealer that the new WRX is faster then the STI in a straight line. Lighter with only 30 less hp. Don't know if that's true or not but I do know the '09 WRX is much faster then the '08.

  • yes, the new wrx is faster cause of the more power it has and lighter. and its 10,000 less. lol.

  • Up here in Canada the top line WRX is only 4 thousand cheaper than the non tech packaged STI. But the STI has much better potential for upgrades with the drivetrain. Straight cut gears right from the factory, it's all beef! And the WRX looks like a plain hatch to me, nothing special. I can't wait to start modifying this beast.

  • OIC, so its only 4000 cheaper. thats not a big difference. I would get the wrx in the sedan. the sti only comes with the hatch. But, I like the sedan better than the hatch. If the ms3 came with the sedan, I would of gotten the sedan. I cant wait for the new sti/wrx when they come out with new designs. should be a lot better than the design right now. the hatch is not that flattering.

  • I've always liked hatches but the STI looks a little too boring I agree. They are much better up close I find. But way more room inside(I used to have an '07 STI, useless back seat) and it's 200lbs lighter with a little more power. Plus I can actually drink coffee in this one without it splashing all over the place! It's way more plush. Overall, I love my '09 more but I can see why people prefer the old design. The hatch looks sweet tho lowered with 275 wide tires

  • Its true, check out Car and Driver they brought that up.

  • rofl, a mazda3 hahahahaha, i would love to see it pull on my STi

  • sounds very good, subaru engines are one of the few imports i like, sounds kind of like a V8.

    and to the guy who said this shouldnt be a wagon-i wanna say

    whats wrong with a wagon???

    (srt8 dodge magnum)

    (sti wagon)

    2 awesome wagons right there :-P

  • i agree with you...mazda 3 speed not so great though

  • i dont like that one either, rather have an sti my self, but what got me was the awesome sound of its engine :-)

  • ditto!

  • @MoParguytilidie +1, I have an Outback XT, might as well be an STi wagon

  • @MoParguytilidie damn u just compared a magnum to an sti...

  • @MoParguytilidie audi rs4...audi rs6...two more amazing wagons

  • @MoParguytilidie I know this is a year old comment, but it's a hatchback.

  • @MoParguytilidie its a hatch not a wagon

  • @MoParguytilidie

    Not a wagon. It's a hatchback. 

  • @MoParguytilidie sorry mate, but this engine never sounds like a v8!

    1: the block is built completely different: boxer - V

    2: 4 cylinders less than a V"8"

    3: it need at least 2 times more cubic capacity for a proper v8 rumble

    but nevertheless it sounds great!

    cheers

  • @d33pT well, some boxers sound very similar to a detroit diesel 8V92, that'd be a V8......a big V8

  • @sd40u

    I dunno, an STI doesn't sound anything like a v8 to me. They are without a doubt extremely throaty for a 4 cylinder though. One of the few 4 cylinder cars that I actually enjoy the sound of lol.

  • sick as fuck man : )

  • Its a wagon for a reason . Weight distribution.

  • +70 billion. Finally some people startin to see this...

  • Exactly. Go read up on the history of this car. I love the fact that it's a wagon. I wouldn't buy it if it wasn't.

  • i know your car is faster than mine and i like the awd turbo concept but i cant get past that the sti only comes as a station wagon now! what was subaru thinking? i think it looks horrible! should have gone with the new evo. looks much better

  • About the red rear fog lens. I live in Europe, and it has nothing to do with "parking at night & narrow streets" It is not found on all cars- so as far as it being "Euro Safety"...thats crap. I've replaced my lens with a clear one....no probs from the leos. 99% of cars in Europe have only 1 reverse light on the right side. Also... we park on the sidewalks over here :P

  • clean as fuck

  • borla's sound nice on only a few cars, and this happens to be one of them great roar bro.

  • Abi gercekten arabadan anliyorsun :)

    ben avrupada yasiyorum ama Türkiyede daha bugüne kadar en sevdim Subaru STI lari hic göremedim .. 34 plakali yeni MY08 STI görmek cok güzel oldu ;)

    Exhaust da takmissin .. süper! IST'in neresinde kaliyorsunuz?

  • ur mother... fukin twat

  • second that.

  • Love the sound.

  • So this is the Euro-spec STI? Besides those taillights,what else is different than the US-spec ones? Any power difference?

  • not much difference in the engine and drivetrain. Only some ECU tweeks because of gasoline octane difference. But the biggest difference in the interior is the seats. These STI's come with RECARO seats where as USDM ones dont

  • Thanks man.

  • why are your tails different?

  • That is common on all European cars it is a maker light, used for safet when they park they can leave that red light on. My guess is because the streets are more narrow than here in America

  • This is not a real Borla exhaust. This is a system made by someone in Turkey with universal Borla mufflers. Borla will have a real, bolt on, cat-back available for the '08 STI shortly. Please do not be mislead by this video.

  • This is Gay

  • Your name is gay - mouth breeder.

  • Very nice sound, but does it has a red backward light another one is white?

  • euro safety requires all vehicles to have red reverse fog light...
