The turbo provides good power. AWD gives it plenty of grip. You'd be hard pressed to find a better daily driver. Not to mention it's a great platform if you're into tuning.

Fast, fun, agile, mean, way too much torque. Very affordable when compared to competitors. None of those fancy gadgets and toys can be found here... go buy a loaded Acura TL or Mercedes if you need those distractions. This is a great vehicle for those who want to stray away from the automatics. If you are considered a "youthful" driver but need an adrenaline rush type car without high insurance rates... the WRX will work. Gas efficiency needs work. It's bad enough that you have to use 91 octane. Also, do not compare this car based on class because it is pure performance. It really is a rally car. You definitely get your money's worth. Compare it to BMW's 3 series, a Mustang, and even Audi's A4 with Quattro... you'll realize what you have. This car was at the bottom of my list, but after driving it through corners and hitting 110mph in 4th gear, it was an automatic buy. If you want a car that has that "sleeper" look, then this is it. Another buying point: this car is pretty much a sports car but your insurance rate will not spike up... performance sedan with lots of rally safety features :) The TR trim with an added spoiler is all you need. Simple and mean... but nobody knows!

I like pretty much everything about this car. It's got nice aggressive styling, great performance from the factory, it's easily tuneable, and maintenance is fairly cheap. With only a few modifications done by myself, this car is a blast to drive. I'll take it through the twisties whenever I can. Only problem I can think of is that the insurance is quite high, and I may get a little more attention from the cops...lol.

Awesome car. Had to go back to the Subaru family. This was the first year the WRX got the 2.5L turbo motor. More low end TQ than the 2002 WRX, but about the same as far as stock HP and 1/4 mile times. Handled much like the 2002 WRX, brakes were 4 pots, seats and interior were better. Very nice car. this car also saved my life when I wrecked it. ;)
