For the $3000 premium the EJ25 Final Edition commands, buyers are compensated with the addition of an ‘EJ25 Final Edition’ engine plate, a pink grille pinstripe, gold 19-inch BBS forged alloy wheels, silver Brembo brake callipers with ‘STI’ logos, and an ‘EJ25 Final Edition’ rear badge as well as black versions of the front fender inserts, side-mirror caps, shark-fin antenna and rear ‘WRX’ badge.

As its name suggests, the EJ25 Final Edition is the last WRX STI to be motivated by the ‘EJ25’ 2.5-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine, with it producing 221kW of power and 407Nm of torque.

Naturally, a six-speed manual transmission works in tandem with Subaru’s signature symmetrical all-wheel-drive system in the EJ25 Final Edition.

As reported, the fifth-generation WRX STI is due to be revealed early next year, with it all but confirmed to use a new 2.4-litre unit, dubbed FA24, with outputs of about 300kW and 500Nm heavily rumoured, so stayed tuned.
