With Subaru Philippines’s distributor, Motor Image pricing the all-new 2019 Forester so aggressively, it’s inevitable that at one point, parking lots will be filled with them (especially in Crystal White Pearl). So what’s an owner going to do to stand out? Why, dig into the Forester’s thick accessories catalog, of course!

After receiving flak before for not having too many parts and accessories available, Motor Image Pilipinas has done a Russ Swift and is now offering a wide selection of stuff that’ll guarantee that no two Foresters would look alike. And yes, Philippines, they’ve included STI parts as well.


Shall we go through their entire offering? Why, of course.

Now, assuming you want to put all of the STI Performance in your brand-new Subaru Forester, we actually did the math for you. It will set you back P 536,600 (without discounts). This means that an STI Performance Parts-equipped 2.0i-S EyeSight will now set you back P 2,334,600. That sounds like a lot cash until you figure that at that price, it is still close to some of its competitor’s top-of-the-line variants.

If putting in STI Performance parts is not your thing, Motor Image is also offering a wide array of genuine Subaru parts and accessories that focus more on adding style, functionality, and convenience rather than performance.
