The base STI sticks closest to the historic STI recipe. It has a 2.5-liter flat-four turbocharged engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox, which sends the power to the wheels via Subaru’s symmetrical AWD system. It’s equipped with the basic luxuries, but nothing spectacular. In the base car, it’s arguably all about the driving experience. Having said that, the dual-zone climate control, seven-inch color touchscreen infotainment system, and keyless entry with push-button start are welcome additions to such a traditionally hardcore car.
