In which I review the full range TS (GX), RX, RS and WRX

Date of Review:  Dec 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: A solid, reliable, well-built car, with great road-holding and handling and tremendous performance in the top models. But there are issues...
Review: There I go doing it again, putting the same word in the Pros and Cons list, that word being 'value' in this case. More on that later...:-)

Lest you're as confused as I am about models in the Impreza range, let me try to clarify:

Fun times with the WRX

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2003
The Bottom Line: This car is fun to drive and spacious enough for a compact import. If you can handle the incidental costs, it's a definite buy.
Review: I bought this car to replace my beloved 1996 Mustang convertible. It was either something I could play with and rally in (after I've paid for it, that is), or a really snazzy convertible. But since the Saab 9-5 convertible is still a year away and...

Great car marred by poor factory warranty response

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great car, bad factory warranty support
Review: I purchased a WRX Impreza in March of 2002. Everything was great until about 7500 miles when it started making a loud metallic clanging sound from under the hood--more on that later. This car is very fun to drive. I wished it had a little more...

Zoom... yawn?

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: Fast and versatile. However, it just lacked a lot of refinement that a $40,000 should have.
Review: I am a eighteen year old male. This car should be the embodiment of everything I could ever hope for. Its all wheel drive, its turbocharged- so what's missing?

Perhaps it's just me but I found this car to be rather boring. I expected a lot...

What a perfect car!

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2005
Review: I'm only 16, but when i was looking for a first car, I wanted speed, my dad wanted style, my mom wanted safety, and my sister wanted something other than a rusty lemon. Now, if you want to satisfy all of these wants, you'd think the price tag would...

WRX is a fun, sporty, & SAFE car! Great car for the money.

Date of Review:  Apr 29, 2004
Review: The Impreza WRX is a great car! My biggest reason for buying this car was the safety factor. My husband owned a 2002 WRX prior to the one we now own. He was involved in an accident in which the car side-swiped a tree, flipped three times and ended...

Subaru WRX: How about a nice kick in the pants?

Date of Review:  May 22, 2004
The Bottom Line: Good luck beating the WRX in performance, practicality and pure fun in this price range.
Review: I was going to start this review by writing about how I finally bought a car just because I wanted it. Then I thought about that and realized I bought my Porsche 944 just because I wanted it, and my first Acura, and my Celica and . . . well, maybe I...

WRX:The most car for your money

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2003
The Bottom Line: THE BEST SPORTS CAR YOU CAN BUY UNDER 40000. NO LIE AND WITH SIMPLE MODIFICATION IN THE 4000 RANGE YOU CAN HANDLE VETTES
Review: WOW What a car! I'v been having my car for about two weeks now and it's is incredible! Everything mechaniclly on this car is incredibly engineered. Handles like a porsche and moves like a mustang, all with the saftey of all wheel drive. The seats...

Boosted Boxer = Frantic Fun

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: Recommended to anyone wanting a practical car that carves corners going to the store with little Joey in the back. If you don't like this car, you have no pulse.
Review: I fell in love with this car back in 1993 when I first laid eyes on it in Car and Driver. A small blurb described the car and I hoped to one day have one. Fast forward to 2002 and the U.S. is finally privileged enough to get the WRX, albeit not the...

Got boost?

Date of Review:  Jul 29, 2003
The Bottom Line: Best car on the market for less than $30,000.
Review: When the WRX was first released 2 years ago, all I could think about was having one in my garage. Due to HEFTY dealer mark ups, I was unable to realize this dream until just recently. And it certainly is a dream come true.

I purchased my...
