2005 Subaru Impreza WRX Review
ProsI love my WRX . its fast, It hooks the road wet or dry. I've owned a 300zx tt , starion ESI-R and when i was in high school I had a 340 Cuda. My WRX is the best all around car for Fri and Saturday nite fun. Then come Monday back to work I have fun geting there too. Its my Big Boy Toy. If I could I would park it in my Man room. ConsI wish it had a 6 speed but, not the STi 6 speed. The gear in the STi are to short in the RPM to MPH. Subaru made the flywheel to heavy. This make's the 2.0 lag. The shock rims do not thing for the looks too.

You Looking For All Year Fun,wet ,snow And Dry. Wrx Or Sti Is #1 — Best Bang for the Buck. You can Make a WRX as Fast as a WRX STi with Less Than $1000 It has been proven time and time again to have great fitment, performance, and reliability, for the price. A must have a Cobb AP. Primary Use: Commuting to work

Wrx Lite — Great commuter. Great Slow Car to Drive Fast. Has some of the great elements of the WRX, w/o the boy racer stigma. Great small car for city driving. Could use more power and better breaks and Ipod Connectivity. Maintenance could be better. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Great Car For A Right Price — This Subaru doesn't have any problems, except a little cosmetic touch ups.This Exterior Touch ups Don't affect the performance and handling.

Very Satisfactory — Performance - Handles great in the corners, Acceleration is good could use more power especially on the hills, good braking. Build Quality - is good had few none regular repairs done, rather then that all good Appearance - Love her body style, id say personally that is my favorite yr. Interior is really nice too, simple and to the point. Fun Facts - For now its all stock, so definitely can be improved with some after market or WRX parts. Love taking her through the canyons, i definitely enjoy driving it. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsI love the power without the turbo lag. The powers always on. ConsThe damn ABS. I cant have any fun in the snow with it.

I Love My 2.5 Rs — I Love the style of the car. I love how people always say "how many pounds of boost you running?" But even without a turbo the car is very impressive. I think the cars are very well put together compared to some cars I have owned in the past. I owned two Subarus and I would definally buy another one. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||
