Preview: 2015 Subaru WRX STI
When we drove the standard WRX in November of last year, we found it to be a great road car with incredible handling capabilities, but it perhaps lacked a little something in the sex appeal department. With the new STI model, Subaru looks to increase the WRX’s performance capabilities even more, and make the WRX more of a head turner while they’re at it.

Comfort/Involvement Index: 2012 Subaru Impreza Sedan
The cornering grip and transitioning from side to side are pretty good, but the steering feel just isn’t really there. 2.0-liter engine feels overwhelmed, although the manual gearbox is actually pretty nice to use. That rings true for the rest of the cabin, with its supportive seats and driving position.

First Look: 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX Wide-Body
When it bowed in 2008, the level of praise for the new Subaru Impreza WRX was hardly what the automaker had hoped for. The WRX was almost universally panned for its bland looks and soft suspension. Subaru remedied this with the 2009 model WRX. It featured a bump in power along with a more aggressive suspension setup, fixing two of the primary complaints about the 2008 WRX. Now with some help from big brother STi, the WRX has finally got some new(ish) clothes to go with the extra muscle.
