**2013 SUBARU WRX STI SPEC C – 17-INCH JDM LIGHTWEIGHT EDITION**
🇯🇵 **GENUINE JDM IMPORT | FACTORY WINGLESS | GRADE 4B**
**Not your average Subaru STI. Not even your average Spec C.**
An opportunity to own one of the more understated and specialised versions of Subaru's iconic WRX STI.
This is the genuine Japanese Domestic Market **17-inch Spec C GVB saloon** — a lightweight, motorsport-focused STI developed with performance, handling and weight reduction in mind.
What makes this particular specification so interesting is its stripped-back factory configuration, including the distinctive spoilerless boot and reduced equipment.
**Approximately 30 kg lighter than the standard 18-inch Spec C specification**, making this an especially interesting choice for the Subaru purist.
Finished in blue, this example was personally imported directly from Japan by its current owner in 2025, with a **Grade 4B Japanese auction assessment**, full Japanese service history and supporting import documentation.

🇯🇵 **WHAT MAKES THE 17-INCH SPEC C DIFFERENT?**
The Spec C was developed as a more focused, competition-oriented version of the WRX STI, incorporating weight-saving measures and specialist performance engineering.
The 17-inch GVB saloon takes that philosophy further, with its reduced-weight specification and factory deletion of the large rear spoiler.
There is something particularly appealing about a car with genuine STI performance credentials that doesn't need a huge rear wing to announce itself.
**To the untrained eye, it's just another blue Subaru saloon. To those who know their JDM Subarus, it's something rather special.**
