Subaru WRX

The Subaru WRX and WRX STI are rally-bred machines built for the driving enthusiast. You won’t find a better sports car value on the planet. The WRX/STI is a sports-and-performance-tuned model that comes in a sedan body style and features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine in WRX. Both come standard with Subaru’s Symmetrical all-wheel-drive system making it a great all-weather sports car.

The first WRX made it to U.S. shores in 2002 and it’s been an iconic machine in the Subaru lineup ever since. The first WRX STI was shipped to North America in 2004 and the higher-performance model gets a 305hp 2.5-liter power plant and a large wing on the rear deck that sets it apart from anything else on the street.

Today, the 2018 WRX and WRX STI are top-selling sports models around the globe and compete with the VW Golf R, Ford Focus RS, and the new Honda Civic Type R.
