2008 Subaru Impreza WRX

Is Subaru trying to go out of business?

Written by: dinomartini on Apr 05, 2007 08:16 PM

I have been a diehard Subaru fan for the last 15 years. Upon seeing the new Impreza I was excited. Not because I like the look of the 2008 Impreza, but because of the uglyness (I know thats not a word, sorry :( ) of this version, my 2006 WRX will hold its value well. What is Subaru doing? The last 3 generations were very good looking cars in my opinion. They were on a roll, ... Read More...

SPT/STI Parts - Subaru-approved modifications

Thanks for the info. The HID's would be nice, but not for that much money :). Too bad the STI is the only Impreza to get them so far. I think I'll wait til the dealer gets '07 WRX's on the lot and see what the stereo setup looks like. They already have an STI limited which probably looks about the same. I'm hoping if all the bays and panels are the same from 2006 to 2007, the ... Read More...

2006 Subaru STI vs. 2006 Infiniti G35 coupe

Re: nightvzn - maybe new tires? [kevin111]

Hey, thanks for your thoughts. It's been a few weeks since anything has happened on this thread. In the last couple weeks, I pretty much decided that if I were to keep the STI, I would definitely get quieter tires (maybe even all-seasons) once the originals wore out (which, of course, won't take very long). But I've decided I want the WRX Limited. My dealer has one ... Read More...

Interesting. I wonder how much difference the manual transmission/sport suspension would make in your case. Given that the G35 has a bigger (and much more powerful) version of the same engine my Maxima had, I'd expect it to feel a lot faster. Actually the G35 I test drove felt pretty damn quick and light on its feet. But it was the coupe, which is pretty different ... Read More...

Indeed ... I think I just underestimated my threshold for the crudeness of the machine. Although like I said, if it weren't for the unanticipated issues (squeaks/rattles, fluctuating climate control, weak sound system, and my own difficulty with mastering this particular clutch), I'd probably be somewhat happier. You're right, the Legacy GT (or even Mazdaspeed ... Read More...

Subaru Impreza Interior & Passenger Comfort Concerns

Subaru auto climate control weirdness (STI and maybe others)

Written by: nightvzn on Aug 15, 2006 06:37 PM

Hi all. This is my first time starting a discussion here so I hope I'm doing this right. I recently bought a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STI, and I have a question about the automatic climate control system. When operating the air conditioner, it doesn't seem to settle on a comfortable "moderate" temperature; instead, it turns the compressor on and off repeatedly, ... Read More...

2006 Subaru Impreza 2.5i

Written by: bdenton on Jul 05, 2006 08:37 PM

Hello everyone, I have a couple questions that I figured could be answered fairly soon here. I have a 06 Sub Impreza 2.5i. I purchased this car last Dec and I am 18 yrs. old, meaning I would have purchased the STI or WRX but I can't afford the insurance. So here is my situation, I am now looking to do some performance modifications to it. I KNOW SUBARU has created the line ... Read More...

The post above refers to a link I posted here yesterday to a site with pictures of the new 2006 Impreza/WRX/STi. The post has been removed because third party links are not apparently not allowed on this board. This is news to me, as I posted some links here 3 weeks ago which were left up. Still, rules are rules, and we all agreed to them when we signed on. I am happy to ... Read More...
