Funky Cars > First Drive: Subaru Impreza WRX STI Spec C at AutoFans www Auto Com

[AutoFans] The Spec C has a rear mechanical limited-slip differential, replacing the Torsen variety, uniquely fitted STI dampers and springs, a thicker rear stabilizer, and grippier Potenza RE070 tires that all work together to get the power down more effectively than in any STI before it. The Spec C’s turn-in is sharper with more steering feel, less understeer and, surprisingly, a more comfortable ride than the previous Spec C.
