whoops. snuck my car in for a sec wink

The interior hasn't changed much but the most done to the Impreza WRX STI is that of the engine. Heavy changes were made to the engine such as exhaust manifold(turbo headers) is now 4-2 not 4-2-1 and the turbo is now bigger(VF34 I believe) and to what Subaru touts as a "twin-scroll".

The regular WRX will have a turbo with a smaller spool time(to compensate for the turbo lag it has compared to the STI which has a big turbo because of forged pistons, etc etc.)

The STI now has 276hp@6000rpm and 290lbs/ft of torque while the WRX has 246hp@6000rpm and 245lbs/ft of torque.

WRC wings are awesome imo. Imprezas and Lancers look quite at home with those big WRC spoilers. It just doesn't look right with another type of car.
