I'm reading the text as saying that the gift package is actually FREE for the first 200 people buying a new canadian-market impreza WRX/WRX STi after april 12th, 2004.
I'm not sure how much it is (or if it's even available) if you want to buy just the gift package. Maybe I'll swing by the dealer on the weekend to check ;)

I dunno... $25,000 US sounds pretty steep for shift knob for a WRX, and the STi knob, $32G's US is pretty pricey too. :D
(sorry, I'm too lazy to do the US -> Canada conversion on the monetary figures)

Sorry, it was a poor attempt at humor... it said you get them free if you buy a WRX or STi... so the #'s I listed are close to the base MSRP for the WRX & STi in the US. Basically, you'll pay for the price of a WRX or STi to get the shift knob.
Like I said, I was just too lazy to conver to Canadian currency since this appears to be an offer only available in Canada.

I'd buy one in a heartbeat if it was reasonably (REASONABLY) priced.

swung by the dealer today, they indeed had large posterboards advertising this promo so it is -- genuine -- at least in Canada.
AFAIK, this is what the salesman told me - it is FREE for the first 100 WRX Sti's and the first 200 WRX's purchased after April 12th, 2004 (as it says in the link I posted)
SOC (Subaru of Canada) mails the package out directly to you after your purchase of a WRX / WRX Sti (from the canadian subaru dealership)
The promo package is NOT available at the dealership (yet)

I think the Sti alloy one in the promotion should be available eventually as it seems to be an official sti part:
Here's some pics comparing the two:
(the top one is the sti alloy? one, while the bottom two pics are the sti titanium one)

It can't be worse than the Knuckleball (best knob evAr), and that's not that bad in hot weather, even tho mine is a darker color.

i had a black knuckleball and i got rid of it before it melted my hand off. I wish it didn't because i agree that it is the best.

I want that plaque. It would fit in nicely in the front of my coin tray.:banana:
Then I could say I have a Petter Solberg Edition, just like the BS R1 edition SOC did.:lol:

does anyone know the dimensions of the plaque? I saw one on a wrx in sport compact car that said "STI Hunter". I think it would be cool to make your own personalized plaque
| abaxter34 | 05-07-2004 01:26 AM |
those were perfectly good shift knobs until there went and milled the shift pattern into the top of it. :rolleyes: why do they always have to ruin nice shift knobs with those ugly shift patterns.
| FryRice | 05-07-2004 02:14 AM |
is it the same size as the subaru momo knob?
