2021 Subaru WRX Club Spec limited edition due in Australian showrooms

Available with a manual or CVT transmission, the Club Spec variant will cost $7,500 to $10,000 more than the entry level WRX.


A limited-edition Subaru WRX Club Spec – based on the current generation model – has been revealed, with the manufacturer’s Australian distributor announcing 150 cars will be available nationwide.

As with the standard WRX, the vehicle is powered by a 2.0 litre turbocharged "boxer" engine producing 197kW and 350Nm.

It will be kitted out with Recaro bucket seats, Red Brembo brake callipers (on the manual variant only), a Harman Kardon speaker system, a “carbon design” instrument panel, crystal black highlights, and Club Spec limited edition badging.

It will also have the microfibre steering wheel and 18” alloy wheels from the more expensive WRX STI.

Unlike previous limited run WRX cars, including the 2012 Club Spec, this edition is not fitted with a rear spoiler.

The STI, STI premium, and STI spec.R are currently the only WRX variants to feature aerodynamic packages.

Pricing for the six speed manual will start from $47,990 (plus on road costs), while the CVT automatic option costs an extra $2,500 at $50,490 (plus on road costs).

The entry level Subaru WRX currently starts at $40,490 (plus on road costs).

Local dealers will begin receiving shipments of the WRX Club Spec over the coming weeks, says Subaru Australia.
