Today's STI makes brilliant sense to the enlightened enthusiast who appreciates something different and isn't afraid to take a walk on the wild side. As a complete package, the STI boasts the looks and performance to hold its own against its hatchback rivals. Moreover, the car's hatchback styling means the visual addenda are subtle and cohesively integrated into the aesthetics to result in a mature and more grown-up appeal.

However, just because the boy-racer spoilers have gone missing, it doesn't mean the STI has turned into a push-over. A full-bore blast in the car is enough to convince even the most hard-nosed detractors that there's more to the car than meets the eye!
