From what I can remember there was maybe one person who was really hoping they would but other than that, nothing else.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah, I think anyone who would want it in under a month would just be buying off the lot.

Not back in September they wouldn't be.
The ones hoping to get it under a month in September and October were doing so because the sale guys were telling them that is when they would show up. They didn't

I remember seeing it mentioned elsewhere but not in this thread.

Wheels that fit the 2004 STI will fit the BBK on our cars.

Anyone have recommendations for good wheels for track day/AutoX only? I'm looking at the RPF1 in 17X8 +45 but everyone and their mother has those on their BRZs. Looks aren't a huge deal to me for track days, but it would be nice to stand out a little

I believe they're pretty popular too...but WedsSport TC105N would be great track/autoX wheels. Lightweight, quality, and pretty nice! I know the 17x9+49 clears BBKs, but I'm not sure about the Brembos on the PP (pretty sure they do)

Got mine today! So happy! Unfortunately my "weekend" is over and I start back tomorrow but on Tuesday me and this lady (and my wife, yes she will go willingly) are going to go have some fun.

I'm waiting on a 720 Form GTF1 in a 17X8 and a 17X9 both +35 offset to test fit. They weigh 15.5 Lbs. and 16.8 Lbs. respectively and are made using the flow form process. I ordered them from CARID about a week ago. They were NOT able to confirm figment on the 2017 with PP. I really hope they fit because I think they may be an ideal track/autocross wheel. I will post results when they get here.

Update: I just got notice that the wheels are scheduled to ship on Thursday March 16th. I don't know if they're shipping from the manufacturer in Canada or a distribution center in the lower 48. I'm in California, and know they have a distribution center here, so I'm hoping that's where they're coming from.

Sweet! I'm looking at other options too, if I don't find anything by the end of March I'm getting the RPF1 since it's a guaranteed fitment

First track day is April 15!

here she is with a fellow owner, who pulled up and parked with me as i was parking, super nice guy, his car is sick

the car is absolutely gorgeous, my impreza is the same color but wow, it looks so good on this car, i've prob spent equal time staring at it as i have driving it...i'll walk into the garage and just stop and stare

i'm also very impressed with how fancy it is, i noticed when you approach the car the cabin lights come on, and i even got a notification on my phone telling me exactly where it was parked....never had a car with any sort of fancy gadgetry

and holy shit is it fun...i've just been searching out all the twisty roads in my area

if only i could go above 4k rpm!!
