The sound of the turbo boxer engine, the grip of Subarus symmetrical AWD system, and the raw STI character were built not for the city streets, but for gravel roads, snow covered stages, and flat out battles against the clock. Back then, Subaru blue and gold wheels meant only one thing pure WRC heritage. This is more than just a car.
