Got my Impreza today!

I am soooo impressed with this car. I'm totally loving the handling, power, etc. What a change from my old domestic car. Night and day. I even drove a WRX Sti to see what that was like. Lets just say I am now addicted to the turbo spooling up sound and the whooosh through corners at 1G. But I dont' need an STi, or WRX for that matter. I'm just happy to have switched to a quality car that is extremely fun to drive. There are not very many of my cars on the road. I catch people watching me as I drive by.



I enjoy putting abit of gas down for a second, startling the slow Civic driver to the left of me, left wondering "What the hell was that?



I gotta admit, that boxer engine is so damn sweet!!!

Not to dampen your enthusiasm but 1G on crapenza 92??? luckily I'm due for new rubber this fall.

as is the engine and the shifter on that civic. Nowhere nearly as powerful of course but sweet nevertheless.

Anyhow, happy blasting. Is there much turbo lag left on 07 wrx?

A tiny bit of turbo lag. Seriously, you could run the WRX Sti up to

155 MPH quite easily. Even the car salesman said "This car should be illegal, it's too fast". I've driven a regular Civic with a manual transmission. It has nothing compared to the Impreza. The Civic seems wimpy and uninspired.The Si - now that may be a different story when you're up in the high rev's of V-Tec land. There are so many Hondas, Mazdas, GM's, Toyotas, etc on the road where I live. There are absolutely almost no Subaru cars here. I have not even encountered one single Impreza on the road yet. And I live in winter storm central (Nova scotia, Canada). We are getting a good snow storm tonight, and I'm not even the slightest bit concerned. I know with slow, safe driving I can get home, with the all wheel drive.
