My Scooby — Absolutly amazing performance went like stink, great handling added a few bits like strut brace,K&N induction kit de-cat exhaust, 04 alloys lexus rear lights, clear side repeaters and side lights, Not the most attractive car but it was not bought for its looks boot space was small.High service costs were a bummer to clutch cost £500.

AWD, low end torque, stoppy brakes, sticky tires, boxer rumble

Cons

I only own one.

Epic Win. — I love this car. Only one rattle in the interior I'm too lazy to get to. Healthy as an ox even with 171,XXX miles. Goes like stink even without a turbo, corners like its on rails.

Amazing All-round Performer — A car that you can race in, blast around the streets in, modify to the hilt, yet still get your family and the week's shopping in. Blistering performance, amazing handling, great engine sound, etc, makes the Impreza one of THE greatest cars ever built.

Extremely fun to drive right out of the box.

Won't win you drag races.

Great Performance And Style For A Very Reasonable Price. — You can't get much more car for the price. Although the turbo version is now available, the RS is great in city driving with an aggressive gearbox and torquey engine. Powerful stock brakes and AWD round out driving performance. Total joy to drive.

Wonderful Car For All Seasons — This car was my dream car when I was young. Now I own one and I really enjoy it, except that they're a leak of power... I'll fix that soon ^_^

Gobsmacking performance, AWD, practical, not that expensive to run

Cons

Handling adequate rather than awesome - it's no sports car.
Common as muck.
Gearbox broke expensively (but it remained drivable).

Awesome And Yet Unsatisying — WRX STi version 6 in Cashmere yellow. There's no better getaway car - nothing is this fast A to B in all weathers with 3 villians on board!

I Compare All Cars To This One I Owned. — So much fun to drive, great handling and an all around fun car. Also cheap to own. Over 80,000km I had to change or fix NOTHING! Amazing.
