I was just hoping that we'd get about 280hp. Subaru is really kicking butt with this new car when it comes to content! I expect to see it sticker for about $30k. My first question is how to drop the 6-speed with DCCD into my car- is the DCCD controlled by the main ECU or by its own. Questions, questions, questions. As for looks, I think the bug eyes look a lot better, and a lot less busy than the new car, which has goofy (in my opinion) styling in the front end, and I'd only drive one with the foglight covers on because the foglights look like a cheap afterthought stuck into the corners of the strange-looking openings on either side of the bumper which is trying to look like an SE-R Spec-V. I think, however, that 300 hp and 300 ft/lbs would be enough to forget the looks and tell other people that my car at least has a nice personality. -Bolster

I don't want to insult any Scooby fans, but I hate Subaru! How can they do this to me! I just got my car for a year and their bringing a more wicked Impreza STI here. But the same time I like what they have done to the new car. Damn I'm so confused

If they're gonna be *that* limited, I think finding a drivetrain might prove to be hard. And if you do find one, it'll probably cost a pretty penny Hopefully, they'll only be limited during the first year, so in a couple years, the motors are readily available

Default OHOH were gonna have a bunch of used Rex's

I work at carmax and i think were gonna be seeing a bunch of used WRX's coming our way, especially if the price is $32k or less.

right now they are running in the low $20's with 20k miles or less this may have a serious impact on the secondary market.

SOA thank you for giving us the best mass-produced WRX. Next up turbo Forester and US B4 woohoo!!!
