2011 Subaru Impreza WRX, STI: Priced to Impress
by Subaru in the News on August 17, 2010
Once again emphasizing that high performance doesn’t necessarily require a high sticker price, Subaru has announced that the starting MSRP for the 2011 Impreza WRX lineup will see a mere $500 bump for the new model year, while drivers will be able to get into a 2011 Impreza WRX STI for a sticker price that’s a full $1,000 lower than that of the 2010 models.
Wearing aggressive new body work—including new front and rear bumpers along with wider fenders and quarter panels—the exhilarating Subaru Impreza WRX has a base sticker price of $25,495 for both the four- and the five-door models. Other upgrades for the 2011 model year include an improved sound system that now features six speakers, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls and new alloy wheels wrapped in wider summer-performance tires. WRX sedans also get chrome satin accents and quad tailpipe outlets.
With an MSRP of $27,995, the WRX Premium is enhanced with a Subaru all-weather package, power moonroof and fog lights, with the sedan adding a rear trunk spoiler. The range-topping WRX Limited starts at $28,995 and adds features like high-intensity discharge headlights and leather interior accents. These MSRPs apply to both body styles, and both the Premium and Limited trims offer a GPS nav system with a seven-inch touchscreen.
The 305-hp Subaru Impreza WRX STI lineup, boasting an enhanced suspension setup for the new model year, increases the performance ante significantly; the MSRPs, not so much. The STI sedan returns for 2011 with a price of $33,995—the car’s hallmark rear wing included. The STI Limited five-door, with 18-inch BBS alloy wheels, opens at $35,995, and the new STI Limited sedan, shod with the same wheel/tire combo, adds a power moonroof and fog lights for $37,345.
All 2011 STI models come standard with an enhanced audio system and the Subaru all-weather package, and the automaker’s navigation system is an $1,800 option in all STI trim levels.
And remember, also standard on the WRX and STI—and all other Subaru models—is the automaker’s symmetrical all-wheel-drive system for an optimum combination of traction and handling.
The 2011 Impreza WRX and STI lineups will arrive in local Subaru dealerships this September.

The Impreza sedan before the end of a side profile Corolla, Corolla one, and the tail of a Kia Rio is absolutely horrible. The rear bumper of STIs is stolen from an M5/M6, but it looks good. I can not imagine how they managed to butcher the style so bad Impreza. At least the fender flares that look less like a Corolla and a Corolla as belonging to a young man of 17 years. I like the look of the sedan, but not really different from above, so there is nothing interesting about the new car.
