Subaru needs to make the performance gap what it once was in 2004 and to a lesser extent in 2008 to justify the price. Making compromises to what makes a Subaru a Subaru for 3HP, carrying over 20 year old engines over promising with concept design is turning their backs on loyal Subaru fans. So get a clue Chief... and insulting another member's WRX is pretty weak.

All BS aside... i know it'll be hard for you trolls in your mothers' basements, consider this:
No hatch to suposedly focus development funds. This from a company posting record sales. Turning their backs on half their previous buyers. A carry over engine in the halo car, how Toyota of them. Makes me think there wasn't going to be a 2015 STI until the eleventh hour. An afterthought at best. The little things like weight gain and equal length headers, not to mention questionable styling make it painfully obvious that Subaru isn't putting its all into these cars anymore. But they'll still ask for more of your money. You shmucks would likely give it to them if you had jobs or decent credit scores. |

Track Pack equipped Mustang, 420 hp. Power and handling for ~37.000. Get off your @$$ Subaru. 2015 another let down.

Do you even know what a halo car is? How old are you seriously? You claim to be married and refer to us here as kids living in a basement of our parents house yet you drive an old automatic wrx and claim a wrx/sti is Subaru's halo car when besides the tribecca which will not be made anymore and the brz which was obviously limited in production is the smallest selling subaru car. Currently Subaru's halo car is the Forester or outback. They have been subaru's best sellers for many years now. Quote:
I'm really not seeing subaru's questionable styling here. I think the car looks pretty decent minus the rim design and black wheels. The interior looks nice, dash isn't plastic like all the old wrx's. It has a 6 speed which has been cried for by everyone since the wrx was introduced. The car is claimed as the best handling wrx every produced. I'm sure they would not make this claim if it weren't true. Again I point out that you think subaru isn't putting anything into these cars anymore yet you drive an 02' auto wrx. Those things factory are absolutely hideous. In fact all US wrx's are pretty damn ugly from the factory until the 2011 was introduced. It's very clear you do not have a good paying job or credit score since you drive your wifes wrx who owned the car before you guys met. It's clear you're not going to be buying a car for a long while so I'm sure subaru doesn't car that you're not purchasing one. |

Subaru is not Ford, when you realize this you will be better off. The volume of cars Ford sells is ridiculous. If Subaru sold even a quarter of what Ford did maybe prices could be different but they don't and won't for a while. So get over it.

Wow what a coincidence you drive an 06' wrx. I could have guessed you were going to say you thought they were the best. I'd stick to a gc any day of the week out of not wanting a car that every kid getting their license wants. Then if I was going to pick I'd go 11-14'. Can't say anything about the 15's because obviously no one has driven them yet minus media.

the new sti is using a carry over engine... try reading something other than the comments sections. school yourself on the two seperate headers on the ej thats carried over on the sti.... as for the wrx, how can something be equal lenth if theres only one of them? along with a TWIN scroll turbo. pretty simple logic. you can call it what you want but theyre two pieces on opposite sides of the engine. looks are subjective and the wrx has never been beautiful but dont show a gorgeous concept then under deliver while touting your sales numbers. eat it troll |

I don't claim to know your life story. I was making a generalization of your life (which is easy) just like you tried to make a generalization about me living in my parents basement and not having a good credit score. So I will start out by saying my 99 Rs was far better and faster then your auto wrx would ever be. I bought it for 15k with 17 miles on it. I then sold it for 13k, 2k less then I originally purchased it for. I'll put money on that you can't do that with your car. You bought your wife a crappy tribeca....congrats, they suck. I work on them daily. I will tell you however I do own an acura tl and just purchased an 08' spec b legacy. Both those cars are better then your two cars. Would you still like to compare? My wife drives a 2011 BMW 328. Wanna still compare your life to mine and see who is better off? We're not driving 02 auto wrx's. Quote:
I work on these cars everyday and go to new model updates every year. When a new engine is released we tear it down and rebuild it. So again your not stating any facts. Now to your twin scroll comment that you know nothing about. There is a difference between me and you, I know what I'm talking about and you don't. You just stated to me that just because the turbo set up is called a TWIN scroll that it has two headers. This is a twin scroll header btw. This is a regular wrx header: This is camaro headers: As you see there is a reason it's called a header or headers. When you add an "s" to it like that it means plural. Plural means more than 1. I'm sorry but you make it easy. You should just stop trying now. Last edited by Supraru; 01-16-2014 at 09:05 AM. |

Finally, your comment "Subaru has turned it's back on the faithful" is again an opinionated generalization. You don't like the redesign, and that's fine. But your perspective can't place an over-generalization on an entire company. Quote:

The Concept, of course, looked so much better. I dunno, but last good model to me was the Blob eye. Just my 2 cents.

It sounds like you know more than me about the new incoming fa25. Are they going to be changing the internals to allow for greater tuning (i.e. rings, pistons, rods etc.) Also do you know if this is direct injection like its little brother? Cuz that would make me a lot more sense on its ability to be a monster.... thanks for the reply Last edited by SunDevilSubi; 01-20-2014 at 08:23 PM. |

The '15 WRX is not immediately stunning like the concept but it's really only one or two mods away from being gorgeous. Lower it on some bigger wheels and then start tuning. I will be getting a red one with the CVT.
Tell me that's not sexy... The only WRX body style that cannot be saved is the '08 jelly bean. |

All this whining, and most of it is coming from people who bought the WRX that was the biggest downgrade from its predecessor in the looks department
I remember in 2006 everyone hated the hawkeye too I'm glad the EL headers seem to be driving idiots away from this car |
