SUBARU WRX STI Nürburgring Challenge 2010: In-car Movie

The prototype WRX STI has been timed in a test drive around the Nürburgring.
Major improvements have been made to the chassis performance, including the body itself as well as its aerodynamics. The new mode shaved more than 4 seconds of the 2004 time, clocking in at 7:55; the fastest lap time ever recorded for the WRX STI.

If Tommi Makinen drove me to work every day I would never be late but I would always arrive with shit in my pants.

is this a sedan?

@AtomicSphere Spec C has 6 pot front calipers, 2.0L twin scroll turbo, slightly different stabalizer bar size.

North America's STI is 4 pot front calipers, 2.5L non twin scroll turbo, engine is known to be tuned running leaner than it should be.

Pillow ball joints are one of the improvements made to North America's 2011 STI however Japan 2007 Spec C's already utilized it, its just that it wasnt implemented into North America STI (and possibly japan) till now.There is soo much more

[AtomicSphere]

@Driftuner You are right about it being a prototype and not recognized because of that. The version Makkinen was helping research and development is the current production Japanese Subaru STI spec C version. North America woudnt have this verion and they both differ quite a alot. However during the prototype phase, there are modifications that woudnt exsist on production vehicle. Some of it are the undertray and gurney on the wing that adds more downforce on top of the spec C.
