We don't get an RS3 hatch or an A45 AMG. Audi and Mercedes are just as daft with the performance sedan humping as Subaru is. This is NASIOC. NORTH AMERICAN is the NA in NASIOC. NZSIOC?

Which makes your posts all the more confusing. Why so worried about what happens here? How many Americans troll kiwi sites?

The very fact you are on this website is trolling. The fact you offer advice to people without any knowledge or even a practical understanding is trolling. The fact your market gets the Levorg and the WRX/STI to choose from, yet tell us a hatchback is pointless and the sedan is superior is trolling. Your opinion bares dick all for the US and Canada market. You'll see any and all versions and we'll get one. And thanks for being a dick about it.

Why so much male emotion? Direct your anger at the manufacturer who doesn't make the body style you like. No one else threw a tanty about what was a tongue in cheek comment.

Plus pretty sure nasioc lets non americans join this site so boo who...

The realization that not all kiwis have a sense of humor is engendering some emotions in my house.

I was yanking his chain about the levorg and he showed zero sense of humour with his rant lol.

Man but even tho i think hatches are girly and impractical, the 11-14 hatch sti has aged well actually.....

So true! What I can afford, and what I'm comfortable spending on a vehicle are 2 totally different things. The RS3 is 2x as expensive as a WRX. The thing that sucks, imo, is that there is really no cars between a $30k wrx and a $60k rs3. The stuff that sits in the class between just isn't enough of an upgrade to me (golf r, STi, focus rs).

Plenty of stuff. S3, S4, CLA45, M2, 340i, q50rs, Kia Stinger, Chevy SS, ATS-V... The RS3 is the most expensive small sports sedan you could've picked. I think I'm in the same boat as you though. I keep looking at the market and nothing really makes me want to move from my WRX. (I think I might actually just be happy with it despite all my mental thrashing about levorgs, hatchs, murican muscle, and etc.)

The Tokyo motor show starts Wednesday, but we might start seeing information on tomorrow because of the time zone. Besides the viziv performance concept, and the production ready prototypes, what other information will they share about the direction they are heading with their upcoming vehicles.

Subaru may tease with WRX but I just brought this home to my wife.



She wanted a sedan. What the lady wants, the lady gets.

Why did she want something so sporty? It's a bit too sporty, I think. Too... defined.
