I wonder what caused it? Mechanical failure?

Sure it's an STi and not a WRX? ( I can't tell) If it is it's an 04. I have an 04......hmm....I'm gonna go check some thing be right back.........................

This is kinda old. It was caused by a defective coilover (JIC I believe) shortly after JICs were no longer the darling of the online forums like they used to be. there is a thread about it here that showed all the details including detailed pictures of the defective strut itself.

Sideskirts and wheels look like an STi

Ouch. Didn't realize it was old...I can't sleep so I was looking at some vids and had never seen this one.
