What is the production date of the first STIs 2.5 sold in US?

[freakray]

Production date or date they became available?

They were available late 2003.

I got the 3rd one from the dealership I bought it from, picked up August 2003. The production date on my car is June 2003.

I mean production date(the day car left the factory). Import tax for my country depends on it.

Thank you. Do you expect any STIs produced earlier than June 2003? Probably April-May 2003?

STI's have been produced for more than 10 years, so there are plenty pre-2003.
Or do you mean USDM STI's?

I wouldn't expect anything earlier than May '03 in that case.

The dealership I bought my car from had one here in early June 2003, and I would expect that car would have a production date of mid-April 2003. There's an outside chance that there may be a couple with a March 2003 production date, but anything with a production date before May 2003 is goign to be virtually impossible to find.
