At this year’s SEMA show, Subaru will be showing off its latest crop of Genuine and Performance Tuning parts, as well as the newly refreshed 2011 Impreza WRX and WRX STI. Six show cars will be on display, including Tommi Makinen’s record-breaking WRX STI that lapped the Nürburgring in just 7:55:00 (pictured).
In addition to Makinen’s STI, Travis Pastrana’s New Year’s Eve jump car will be showcased, as well as some Imprezas tuned by the folks at Get More Gs, Kicker Audio and K&N Performance. Subaru’s national accessory manager, Charlie Fishman, says that the automaker “is having a record year for Subaru Genuine Parts and SPT accessory sales,” thanks in part to the introduction of the new WRX and WRX STI.
