And are we sure its 2 new speakers and not just counting the dash ones as 4 lol.
Also, might the HU need to be changed?

Not necessarily. If it really is just as simple as changing a panel, you could split the signal from one of the other speaker outputs and put it through an amp.

But yep, this ^ is what I'm assuming as well. 8 = 4 in dash, 2 in door, 2 in rear.

Agree with that. Made me thinking about NB/NC version.

But I really wonder what the point of this GT version. It will cost a lot more than normal version if I understand well and for what?
Just some aesthetic changes?

Come on Toybaru, be original with a four door or a convertible but that ...
I definitly don't get it why

They will never upgrade the engine till maybe a last year VERY limited edition model and will cost at least $10000 over the base or more.

I'm curious about the Pure Red color. Do the new WRXs use a different red, or are they currently Lightning Red?

I guess we won't see a turbo model until 2017[/s]
