2018 Subaru WRX STI Type RA

Description

The limited-edition 2018 Subaru WRX STI Type RA celebrated the legacy of the Subaru Tecnica International (STI) performance division in impressive fashion with enhanced performance, reduced weight, and exclusive styling.

The STI Type RA stood out with gold BBS wheels, a pedestal-mounted carbon-fiber rear wing, an aggressive front splitter, and a red-accented grille and rear bumper. The cabin featured Recaro sport seats, red interior accents, and a serialized plaque. Standard features included keyless entry with push-button start, an upgraded touchscreen infotainment system, and a premium audio system.

Power was supplied by a turbocharged 2.5L flat-four that produced 310 horsepower and 290 pound-feet of torque from the factory. Its six-speed manual transmission had shorter gears and a factory short-throw shifter for quicker acceleration and more engaging gear changes. And the chassis was enhanced with inverted Bilstein front struts, a revised suspension setup, lightweight forged BBS wheels wrapped in high-performance tires, and a carbon fiber roof.

The result was a highly capable all-wheel-drive performance machine that accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.7 seconds and passed the quarter mile in 14.0 seconds at 101 mph. Its finely tuned chassis generated 0.95 g of lateral grip, while massive disc brakes stopped it from 70 mph in an impressive 156 feet, reinforcing the Type RA's reputation as one of the most focused and collectible STI models ever produced.

This example was originally sold at Lou Fusz Subaru O'Fallon in Missouri, and is finished in Crystal White Pearl over Black upholstery. It has only traveled approximately 7,500 miles, and is number 75 of only 500 Type RAs produced that year.

This 2018 Subaru WRX STI Type RA is now offered on dealer consignment with manufacturer’s literature, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Florida title.
