You’ve been patient but now… the wait is over.
The first-ever S-line STI produced exclusively for the U.S. market is here.

Designed with a focus on high-performance driving, the S209 draws inspiration and tech transfer from STI’s most formidable track machine: the WRX STI Nürburgring Challenge racecar, which won the SP3T class at the 2019 24 Hours of Nürburgring. The S209, like the Nürburgring Challenge racecar, wears an expanded wide-body exterior treatment, which extends the vehicle’s overall width to 72.4 inches, or 1.7 inches wider than a standard WRX STI.

Underneath the S209’s broader body are specially developed Bilstein® dampers, stiffened coil springs, a 20mm rear stabilizer bar and pillow-type bushings for the front/rear lateral links. A reworked version of the legendary EJ25 2.5-liter turbocharged BOXER engine propels the S209. To feed more air to the EJ25, the S209 uses a high-flow intake system featuring a new intake duct, induction box with conical air filter and silicone turbo inlet duct. As a nod to the 2004-07 WRX STI, the S209 is fitted with an intercooler water spray system that lowers intercooler temperature via manually operated steering-wheel paddles.

The S209 is priced starting at $63,995.

Production will be limited to 209 vehicles, and is on sale at select Subaru retailers. Check out the link below to order your S209 from a retailer near you.

The S209 is the most powerful, best-handling, and most exciting Subaru Tecnica International model ever created. What used to be untouchable is now firmly within reach. Hold on tight.

The S209. From Japan with Love.
