I don't like the new wheels.
Also, the gold Brembo is so much cooler than the black ones.

Yeah, I'd have to agree with the brakes. I wasn't a big fan of the gold calipers at first, because I wanted the car to have a uniform colour theme. But the gold really gives it a touch of class and distinction. The black, although nice, just blends in too much to the background. A bit too subtle.

But Subaru says most of these changes are based on customer feedback, so I can only imagine there were a lot of customers out there who complained that the gold was too much the ride was probably too harsh (thus the rise of the ride height).

I assume they can't actually sell the car right now, as it would be covered by the stop sale on 2.5 turbo engines...

Good to see clearer pics of the interior. I couldn't see the inside at Eastern creek.
looks like they swapped back to suede...

The BB's is also more inline with jdm.

Nice pics mate.

Man why couldnt they keep the suede interior for the MY07? i would have much prefered that :cry:

All in all, i like the new zorst tips but the new rims & black brembo's dont tickle me. I like that grey too.

Any idea on what other colours are being released???

I have a stack of pics of #029 of 250, a silver 6MT sedan.

I will post up pics later but the changes that i noticed included wheels, brakes, strut brace, pink sti logo on dash facia, 'tuned by sti' on door sills, pink sti logo on gear knob and seats are now leather and alcantara.

Cheers

I've been told that the stop sale is only relevant to cars that were made/finished on 1 particular day in Japan and that all 250 MY08 Liberty STI's are all good to go.

also notice the roof lining too.. hehe 06 :bb2:

I prefer the old wheels, but it appears these new ones are wearing RE050As ... which I think are much better than the Pirellis.

Like everyone else, the new exhaust looks far more "finished" to me.

Unlike everyone else, I prefer the brakes in black with Brembo stamped in white.

I certainly hope you're right i've been waiting for my GTB since January....

If only I could afford the STI....with all this wait i might as well have ordered one.....

the black brembos are to my liking as well....obviously each to their own..

I'm still happy with my choice .... if only they would hurry up and deliver the car to me...
