Bucky is such a great person to represent Subaru. He's a winner, but he's so humble. Here's to a long and enduring relationship with Subaru!

[@DespaceMan]

+daniel jang True that.... he is one lucky bastard to get to drive that car.

[@k9-unit-australia275]

Bucky is a 100% absolute legend. He’s a down to earth likeable bloke.

[@shawnsimmons8268]

Damn, I love this guy! Bucky is the most gracious, and passionate ambassador for the Subaru brand we have ever had! So happy to his smiling face behind the wheel of an STI!

[@AndrewMalkin]

I got to race karts with Bucky and he was very humble and approachable. Super cool guy. Glad to see him getting these opportunities.

[@aniki937]

I nearly cryied watching this piece of history. Thanks to GT Channel for sharing this footage, thks to Subaru and STI for bringing masterpieces of engineering since decades, thks to Bucky Lasek for his respectful behavior and knowledge. Japan really is a strong competitor when it comes to sports cars. Americans know how to bring it to spotlight so shout out to every car enthusiast all around the world

[@apt62]

Im 37 yrs old, majority of my friends owns Audi, BMW and porsche although I do owned a BMW but theres no car I enjoyed more than my 15 STI. My friends often asked me "why do you owned such a boy racer car?" Like that Mazda Miata commercial says, it reminds when you were you.

[@justdrive7317]

+Wade H Not to mention the Subaru community is much tighter. Not too sure BMW/Audi/Porsche drivers acknowledge each other the way Subaru drivers do.

[@cwillfrommd]

+Wade H This is a track car and its not suitable for some one who works 9 to 5. I would drive lexus gsf

[@apt62]

+cwillfrommd I just lease a GS350 after return my 535. awesome car for the money. very pleased with Lexus.

[@apt62]

cwillfrommd BTW I do use my STI as weekend/track car. I can use this car everyday its too brutal.

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

+Wade H I'll take a 2003/2007 WRX STi over an expensive exotic any day.

[@dailydistruction]

Watching this video in my garage next to my 11 STi. Happy I finally got one because life's to short and nothing drives nor sounds like it does.

[@asr1143]

i hope soon i will have mind.

[@lauriejamesmackeson]

Nicolas R I want my next new car to me the newest model STi!

[@ARMYTRIX]

Beautiful piece of machinery. Beautifully shot. Awesome video!

[@alimehrozi2828]

give me an exhaust for the price of free

[@zutekeela8516]

l've watched this twice , it brings tears of joy to me, makes me glad i bought a WRX

[@ShoOKitssho_time]

I havent seen too many videos like this one that I held my hands tight and even sweated. I met Mr. Tatsumi once, he was very nice to the fans but professional in the pit, with the car (BRZ at Super GT). No matter where and what kind of engineering I'd be doing (learning aerospace engineering now), he is one of the engineers I always look up to.

[@MoeFe]

I miss my subie 😪... One day I will be spooling again 😭

[@marlonmendoza2882]

I am 51 years old but still dreaming of owning one someday.

[@ronnieboucherthecrystalcraftsm]

i brought a 2001 gt forester turbo and it is fantastic with a few go faster bits and a good front rear end alighnment and took it to tasmania wild west coast for a driving holiday = more smiles per miles than anything i have ever driven.

[@ZanollaRacing]

Bravo Bucky! Very proud and happy for you... Absolutely nice! Proud of Boxer, proud of STI. Cheers

[@Altruistic00]

Such a humble guy. Subaru will go great length with him at the wheel.

[@ogmprod]

dam STI appreciation on a new level

[@justdrive7317]

Well that was a joy to watch!! Loved it, Awesome car, awesome driver, awesome engineers!

[@jey2193]

Love STI's like I love Evo's. Damn you Mitsubishi for not continuing the Evo :*( My goal is to own one of each. Got the Evo 9 now working on getting my STI.

[@i_Kalash]

Buying my 2015 STi Limited was one of the best days of my life... thank you Subaru now Can we finally have forged pistons, and an update to the old EJ 257 PLEASE

[@bkbombers]

That's so awesome! Congrats Bucky!

[@carson2687]

This makes me love my 2006 sti even more! Awesome video!

[@ArtSkyNet]

Same here I am on Subaru virus from 2008. Flipped 4 various WRXs and STIs. Due to temporary financial situation, had to sell my latest edm 08 sti. And I suffer!!! but sure I will get one soon! hope for latest chassis wrx!

[@Tmdamara]

This is why my dream car is a STI I don't own one but I will some day....

[@joalfred8548]

Did you ever get it bro? I want one too

[@Tmdamara]

@@joalfred8548 I just want something loud and obnoxious prefer a JDM. I've always enjoyed the flat 4 the WRX have. So it's between a RX7 of some kind or a WRX but no not yet.

[@k9-unit-australia275]

Keep fighting for your dream bro

[@riddhaali2321]

I love my 2012 wrx THIS much more now!!! Can't wait to drive it again! Its been.... 2 days!!!! Weeekenddds here I come!!!!!

+deth kon Suzuki is a common name in Japan… like John… but yeah. its funny!

[@seanmp17]

makes me wanna trade in my WRX for an STI now.

[@juniijimedii697]

Makes me wanna go for a cruise in my 15 STI

[@k9-unit-australia275]

You don’t even own a sti. You’re mate told me that you have an old clapped out stock impreza & just pretend you own one. He says you like the attention when you tell people you own one. Please bro stop lying about owning a sti.

[@juniijimedii697]

@@k9-unit-australia275 dude you’re a dumbass 😂 1st, you must be from another country cause no one around here uses “Mate”. I live in the states. 2nd i do own an STI. Why would you reply to an old ass comment anyways? Must be confusing me with someone else.

Song at 3:01

[@andykane439]

prodrive is the only company to build Subaru's

[@rosmanao]

TOP!!

[@Kuronekaux]

Subaru, can you make a flat 8 or upgrade the flat 6?

[@zutekeela8516]

+Parnilli K. Benally they did upgrade the flat six, but it was for porsche

[@Y10Q]

why? It would be pointless. They use the 4cyl due to weight savings. There is no benefit to having a 6 or 8 cyl engine if you put the same amount of fuel and air into a smaller engine. You just save a lot of weight. Over 200lbs savings.

[@Drive765]

Song ? (3:01)

[@Cyan37]

Music at the beginning sounds like Ludovico Einaudi. Good work crediting the artist...not. -.-

[@padistedor]

Which one of those guys do we have to thank for ringland failure?

[@g0ldensample21]

awesome

[@Ndog888]

Try to find the track in google earth ect. Comment here if you find it

[@kvee2761]

Nerbert or you can have some respect for the brand and the people who build the car, and let it remain a secret, which they clearly intended it to be.

[@M1ster.Fr3sh]

K Vee ???? I respect your Subbie respect, however the "secret" part they intend to keep is in regards to what happens on the inside, not the location itself. If they were trying to hide the location they wouldn't put a big blue Subaru sign on the front gate. Access is extremely limited as they state they even do background checks(..... Damn!), that's why the R&D that goes on inside is extremely confidential, hence why it's a top secret test track. In fact, many manufacturers have private test tracks who's locations are public knowledge.

[@dennyspineda1365]

What's the MPG on this thing?

[@CAL1MBO]

Like 24 average I think

[@k9-unit-australia275]

More then you can afford if you have to ask that question. And this is a stupid bloody question you fool.
