STI S209

The STI S209 is the latest incarnation of the S-series, which goes back almost two decades to the S201. Each new S-model has pushed the limit set by its predecessor and each could be considered a study of everything STI engineers knew about motorsports and vehicle development engineering at the time. The S209 is the first S-model developed exclusively for U.S. drivers and was tested by Subaru Motorsports USA driver Scott Speed at Virginia International Raceway.

WRX STI

Subaru Motorsports USA Car Line-up

Blue and Gold

The Subaru Motorsports USA racing livery looks to the past for inspiration. For nearly two decades, the championship-winning Subaru World Rally Team wore an eye-catching combination of blue paint, gold wheels and bright yellow graphics. To fans all over the world these colors are synonymous with Subaru and performance – today, Subaru Motorsports USA proudly carries forward this legacy with a modern update.

WRX STI VT20r Rally Car

Winner of the 2017, 2018, and 2019 American Rally Association (ARA) National Championships, the WRX STI Open 4WD Class sedan is America’s fastest rally car. Technical partner Vermont SportsCar begins with a production WRX STI and adds a full roll cage, race-spec 2.0L turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine, custom aerodynamics package, and heavy-duty rally suspension to create one of the most advanced street-legal competition vehicles in the world.

WRX STI VT19x Rallycross Supercar

With more than 600 horsepower and cutting-edge aerodynamics, the VT19x Rallycross Supercar is the WRX STI at its most extreme. Power from the custom-built SUBARU BOXER engine is fed through a sequential six-speed gearbox, allowing for clutchless shifting and a 0-60 time of just two seconds, while the custom-built suspension is designed to handle the launches, jumps, high-speed corners, and wheel-to-wheel impacts of rallycross competition.

Crosstrek Desert Racer

Off-road desert racing is a grueling sport, with vehicles taking extensive punishment for up to 1,000 miles in a single event. The Crosstrek Desert Racer is a Class 5 Unlimited buggy built around a non-turbocharged Crawford Performance-built 2.5L SUBARU BOXER engine, which powered Grabowski Brothers Racing to a class win in both the 2018 Vegas to Reno and 2019 Baja 500 off-road races.

WRX STI Type RA Time Attack

Built with former Subaru World Rally Team technical partner Prodrive, the WRX STI Type RA Time Attack is made to break records. In the three years since its introduction in 2016, the Type RA Time Attack has set the lap record at the Isle of Man’s famed TT course, became the fastest sedan ever to lap the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and set a benchmark record time at Romania’s legendary Transfăgărășan mountain highway. Based around a WRC-spec turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine with a hydraulically shifted gearbox and Drag Reduction System rear wing, the Type RA Time Attack features an 8,500 RPM redline and top speed of nearly 180MPH.
