Recently, Subaru of America Inc. proudly announced that the Subaru WRX STI Type RA NBR Special had established a new four door sedan lap record at the world famous Nürburgring Norsschleife race track. Highlighting the capabilities found in the Subaru sedan and its all-wheel drive, the vehicle raced over the 12.8-mile course to a lap time of 6:57.5 -- as verified by Nürburgring timing equipment and track officials.
Subaru outfitted the sedan with a rally spec 2.0-liter Boxer engine and Subaru symmetrical all-wheel drive; the WRX STI Type RA NBR Special owns lap records at Nürburgring Norsschleife, The Goodwill Festival of Speed hill climb and the Isle of Man TT.
In a press release, Dominick Infante, Subaru Product Communications manager, declared, "We brought the WRX STI Type RA NBR Special here to set a record and call attention to the WRX STI Type RA that we will launch later this year. The WRX STI Type RA promises a great deal, with improved performance and styling and even better handling dynamics than the current car."
At Subaru of Spokane, we're excited at the idea of getting to drive the new WRX STI Type RA. Our showroom at 423 W. 3rd Avenue in Spokane proudly serves Subaru drivers from the Spokane, Post Falls, Spokane Valley and Hayden, ID, areas.
