One of best decisions I've made was trading in my 2004 WRX for an 09 WRX! Although I think my 04 looked Beefy like the Incredible Hulk... this WRX has the little niceties (MP3, Bluetooth - phone, Satellite Radio) which as I become older learn to appreciate more & more. The Dunlop's SP Sport 01 seems to be lasting longer than my old WRX (Bridgestone Potenza's). Both tires are very noisy.Mar 07, 2013

I love this car! In first gear around 3500 rpm when the turbo hits you get thrown back into your seat. Tht is an amazing feeling. It corners like nothing else i have driven before. I havent had enough time to write a full review yet.Aug 29, 2012

The price point of the WRX model is unbeatable for an AWD car and the engine build quality of Subaru. I can say that after 23000 miles, I have had no problems besides the routine maintenance. Change oil, filter, and fluids at the proper intervals and this car will last a long time. Feb 28, 2012
