Only 300 models of the Liberty GT Spec B with STI tuning are available in Australia at an extra $10,000 to the normal Spec B price tag.
Starting at $65,990 for the manual and automatic sedans, the STI-enhanced model produces an extra 10kW of power and 11Nm of torque through the upgraded ECU. It will also be available in a wagon variant for an extra $2000.
With STI tuning, the limited model has firmer, sportier ride with better handling, better turbo response and a sportier sound, as well as improved grip.
"This is the second tuned-by-STI Liberty we've had," says Subaru spokeswoman Alicia Cannon. "With the MY07 model we expect it to sell very well, with a good customer response to locally tuned variants."
Tweaked features include Bilstein sports-tuned dampers matched to STI lowered springs, the two STI twin-tip sports mufflers, Pillow-ball bush suspension components and Brembo performance brake upgrade. It sits on 18-inch lightweight alloy wheels and changes have been made to both transmissions with the manual featuring a six-speed STI short shift gear lever and the automatic given a sportier response.
All models feature front lip spoiler and STI badging and the sedan gets an STI boot spoiler.
