Deal, did somebody say Deal? Oh, Dean, yeah that's me.
Default Spec C "options" for US '04 STI?

OK, I think this is pure BS. You could not order these as "options" from the factory in the U.S>, could you?

eBay

This Car is One Of A Kind, Special Ordered By Subaru with some Very Special Spec C Options! This Car has the Built in Roll Bar, a 12 Liter Water Tank in the Trunk to cool the Intercooler, and a Factory ROOF SCOOP to cool the car when you don't want to use AC! This car is Hard To Find and Truly One Of A Kind with All These Factory Options Which Are Only Available On the Spec C!

I call BS on the "roll bar". The Spec-C didn't come with one.

The roof scoop is a real Spec-C part, not that hard to get, but more expensive then you'd think (though it looks like it's installed too far back... it should have an interior trim piece that replaces the overhead map lights that we've got...

The Spec-C tank is also a real part (I've got one on my car for the Water Injection.

All it takes is buying an installing the parts... it's only two things.

I'm just saying, they did some research and added the right bits... that's about as Spec-C as you can get w/o taking off the wing and putting steelies on it.

Well, its not like he exactly claims its a Spec-C, just that it has Spec-C options. Like Scott said, its relatively easy to get all those Spec-C parts.
