Subaru is rolling out a limited-edition WRX Series.White with the WRX’s performance package and sport-tuned suspension with Bilstein dampers.

The Series.White WRX STI gets handling and brake upgrades from the standard STI.

There will be 500 made of each model, and they will be available at Subaru retailers starting in early 2020.

Subaru's signature performance vehicle has gotten an even bigger dose of the rally-car inspiration that originally created it. Limited-edition models of the 2020 WRX and WRX STI Series.White were revealed today at the L.A. auto show, with Subaru announcing that 500 of each will be built, slated to arrive at Subaru retailers early next year.

The Series.White edition adds an exclusive Ceramic White paint to the cars and matte bronze wheels: 18-inch on the WRX and 19-inch forged BBS heels on the WRX STI, the latter the same as those on the high-performance STI S209.

The WRX Series.White is promised to be more than an appearance package; Subaru says it will be the highest-performance WRX sold in the U.S. It's based on the WRX in Premium trim, with a turbocharged 2.0-liter flat-four engine that makes 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque plus Subaru's Performance package, which includes Recaro seats and Brembo brakes with red calipers (four-piston front and two-piston rear). In addition, the special WRX gets a high-performance sport-tuned suspension with Bilstein dampers. Other add-ons include LED headlights and fog lights, matte black rear badging, and black folding exterior mirrors and side badges. Total price for the WRX Series.White is $34,885, a $1340 premium over the 2020 WRX Premium with Performance package.

The WRX STI Series.White is an enhanced version of the top-end model, the WRX STI. It comes with the same turbocharged 2.5-liter boxer four, which makes 310 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque. In addition to the features that come on the standard WRX STI including active torque vectoring, the Series.White edition adds Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, heavy-duty steering-rack mounts for better rigidity, and a Bilstein STI sport-tuned suspension. This WRX STI is also equipped with monoblock Brembo brake calipers and a tire repair kit instead of a spare to reduce weight. Cosmetic items include a special STI-badged mesh grille, STI badging, and Cherry Blossom Red accents on the exterior.

The WRX STI Series.White is priced at $43,595, which is $1000 more than the top 2020 WRX STI Limited model.

Both special models will be available in early 2020.
