In the automotive industry, the design process is one of the most elaborate and expensive stages in a car’s development process as it requires several prototyping cycles -with each cycle calling for different design propositions. And just because the STi isn’t a new car -in the sense that it was based on the existing WRX Impreza, don’t think that it didn’t go through various design phases. We’ve included a series of images showing the 2008 STi’s development stages from rough sketches to clay models and onto the final prototypes. Check them all out right after the jump and tell us your opinion. Who knows, maybe you’ll like one of the prototypes more than the actual production version which you can see by clicking here. -Continued
