The new pink STI Coil Springs are specifically tuned for street performance and are approximately 25 percent stiffer than the stock springs. Vehicle ride height is also reduced by about 10mm. The lower center of gravity and reduced body roll results in noticeably improved handling.

After the dummy moved forward into the airbag, it rebounded into the seat without its head coming close to any stiff structure that could cause injury. Injury measures — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity..'  more
September 6, 2007 Roof rack (roof carrier base), standard on the Outback Sport and optional on other models, is intended to be used 'on demand' as removed when not in use. This is due to wind noise.

'Brake assist' assists the brake power when the driver cannot depress the brake pedal strongly and the brake power is insufficient. Brake assist generates the brake power according to the speed at which the driver depresses the brake pedal.  Note: When you depress the brake pedal strongly or suddenly, the following phenomena occur. However, even though these occur, they do not indicate any malfunctions, and the brake assist system is operating properly. 1) You might feel that the brake pedal is applied by lighter force and generates a greater braking force. 2) You might hear clicking (knocking) sounds around brake pedal.

all Imprezas have, continued Brakes: anti-lock 4 wheel disc brakes with EBD electronic brake force distribution Collapsible foot pedals to reduce risk to feet in accidents Brakes: EBD, electronic brake force distribution varies front/rear brake power Brakes: low-wear indicators on disc brakes (rear drums on 2.5i) 3 point lap and shoulder belts with Height Adjustable outboard shoulder harness for all (5) occupants.
