    "WRX is lots of vroom for the money"

    by fxober on February 28, 2009

    Pros: Good handling
    Nice interior and ergonomics (interior function and simplicity is high)
    Nice Daily driver, with plenty of wow
    Nice improvements to torque range

    Cons: Body roll in the corners
    Heater Controls
    Wind Noise at High speeds

    Summary: Subaru has put a great package together, with more seat room in the back, something I was looking for in the G3 version of the Impreza.I do have kid's and am not a boy racer so this is important and Subaru delivered. I think if you need an extreme performance machine you have more reason to step up to the STI platform now as this car was clearly designed more for families, and mainstream users. The WRX although more mainstream still has lots going for it. It's basically still a very very fun car. I would like to see a 6 speed offered in the mid-tier WRX. Exterior styling for Subaru has always been a challenge (remember the XT, SVX or Tribeca). I think with the G3 Impreza they've done fairly well, especially compared to the forementioned. I have never seen Subaru reach impressive heights in styling, that's usually reserved for Mazda, Euro or US makers. I think on the build quality and overall package Subaru has created a great Generation 3 car here. You won't be disappointed, especially if you need a AWD car. The high performance, 5 speed Manual Impreza line is definitely the funnest car that Subaru makes. Try one!
