Looks great. Lightbar would be better if fully LED but none the less it looks shiny and new.

Anybody know how its doing in the wild if officers like it or if its too cramped? Theres already another thread previously on thoughts but not actual fact yet.

Seems like the WRX is always parked up at the train station?

Personally I like them, they respond better than the Holden/Ford when you need the speed

Takes corners like a dream!

Will be nice when they start putting WRX as plain cars aswell give us the element of suprise

I do believe that particular WRX will never have TADIS fitted.

The LEDs on the lower deck are bright actually alot more visable than the beacons i have a feeling they have used lower wattage globes on the top anyways just some useless info.

Because it was originally designed to be a General Duties car and nothing more?

Quite the opposite actually. I had my doubts about the WRX but after having it for 10 nights my mind has been changed.

The correct callsign is WT902 and it is a fleet spare....
