BigInALegacy Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 No kidding... funny they would make #1 an auto. I like the USDM 5EAT center console better than the clunky circle with a shifter.... but other than that sweet ride! What's the price tag on that bad girl?

BigInALegacy Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Oh, and is that AT special at all for the STi model? 6-speed? DSG? Or just a regular 5EAT like we'd get in the states? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psi365 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 No kidding... funny they would make #1 an auto. Just guessing here, but in 05.5-06ish Audi came out with a limited edition "quattro" S4. They made 250 of them. Each of them have a plaque in them saying 1/250. So every person that bought one thought they bought the first car. I'm guessing the same holds true here. I'm guessing they all say 1/250. GTSPECB STI: I swear you get some enjoyment out of torturing us Americans with these pics. First you(or someone here) had the pics of the black LSTi wagon (think it may have been a 07 though) now this. When will SOA see the light already??

The Liberty Tuned by sti is numbered 1-250 this year. Last year it was 1-300 and I happened to have #136/300. As for torturing Americans well maybe a little but I thought you guys would like to see these Libs just the same? PS. I am an American who moved to Australia 21 years ago so I do care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddseth Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Hehe, so you moved to Australia in anticipation that 20 years later, you would actually be able to drive one of these beauties! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigInALegacy Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 No, a Legacy STi It does have a bit of aftermarket STi parts like the spoiler, exhaust, front brace, seats, etc... but it's still a bit pricey. Probably dictated by the Australian market though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSPECB STI Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 65,0000 Australian dollars = 60,2745 U.S. dollars You spent 60K on a legacy. . Paid, well not quite. Novated Lease mate!! Novated lease using pre-tax dollars and resulting in a nice tax deduction at the end of each financial year as well. All running costs including services, petrol, set of tyres (tires), insurance and registration. Fixed cost per month and no costly surprises with the car. At the end of my lease I will also likely owe less than I get from the trade-in. My last car 06 WRX STI was kept for 18 months of 24 month lease and I got several thousand back in my hand and drove away in my current Lib Sti. For me the car is required for work and our government in Australia gives us some tax benefits when using your own car for work. Yes the price is high but so are the incomes in Australia. PS. MY 07 Lib Sti was AUS $72,000 on road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaycy Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 65,0000 Australian dollars = 60,2745 U.S. dollars You spent 60K on a legacy. . In Australia, we pay too much for cars and houses and almost everything else. A BMW 135i is priced at Au$71,000+. I guess it's about half that in the US. No, a Legacy STi It's tuned by STi, not Legacy STi. A Legacy STi does not exist, yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwannaSportSedan Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 We, in the US, unfortunately don't even get a "breathed-on by STI" version of the Legacy/Liberty. >:-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08specB Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Nice car. Wish SOA would do that here!! (Are you listening SOA??? Just DO IT!!) I would love to get some of those parts for my spec. Just don't want to pay out the a$$ for them either. If I had something important to say, I wouldn't tell you anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigInALegacy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 our cars are made specifically so STi parts WILL NOT fit on our cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
