What owners say
"Overall, owners love the 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX for its impressive performance and handling. Many appreciate its fun driving experience, all-wheel drive capability, and design. However, some drivers noted the challenges of maintaining good gas mileage and mentioned that the ride can be a bit noisy."
This is one of the most fun cars I have ever driven. With its 265HP 2.5L inter-cooled boxer turbo engine, continuous all wheel drive you will pull away from the competition on the straights and handle any tight turns with ease.
October 9, 2014I have never had so much fun driving a car. You will always have enough power with the 265HP, 2.5L boxer inter-cooled turbo engine. This car handles like a dream on tight turns and pulls away from the competition on the straight aways. The continuous all wheel drive makes any driving condition seem simple. With the the built in Bluetooth it is also nice to stream music or phone calls while you commute. For a compact car I am blown away with how much storage this car has. the hatchback gives you lots of need room for moves, groceries, and supplies. My only complaints are the gas millage and interior noise. You can expect to get 19MPG driving in the city and 24-26MPG on the highway. When cruising on the highway you can hear ambient noise from the road but not enough noise that a little music can't drowned out. All in all this car far exceeds any and all of my expectations with its power, performance, handling, cargo and style.
October 9, 2014I knew i had to have this car as soon as i saw it. I found one in another state and immediately drove there to buy it after looking at so many cars that just didnt work out due to lack of speed and comfort. This car handles amazingly, its fast, and it looks great. Ive always wanted to fix up my cars in the past which turns them into money pits so when i was in the market for a car (previously had 2 rx8s before this one) i had 1 stipulation "car must look so good i dont want to modify it!" And here i am almost 3 years later in love with my car.

June 12, 2013This car was really fantastic, the perfect example of a great daily driver. Everything worked and operated as if new and the vehicle had a very comfortable ride. The 5 speed transmission shifted flawlessly and smooth, while the 2.5L turbo engine achieved great gas mileage.
July 10, 2013The smooth ride quality and quiet engine would make this a deceptively fast car, if the acceleration didn't THROW you in the seat once the turbo spooled! It is ridiculously fun and fast, with exceptional traction control complementing phenomenal handling that inspires confidence. Within the first 1000 miles, the car has mild rattles and too much road noise... but it's hard to care about such things in a car that does over 40mph in first gear, 65 in second (approaching 60mph in under 5 seconds!)
May 6, 2011Not the best riding car but then it was never ment to be.It has power almost on demand I wanted to get the STI but when I drove the WRX it was a very close second and if I wanted more power the price diffrence from it and the WRX and the STI I can buy the parts and get the same if not more.I get about 21.5 mpg and that has been a average of 6000 miles most has been driveing in stop and go on the highway I get 25.8 on average.The car has lots of room in the trunk it suprised me it does not look like it but there is alot.I had no problem with it this winter as a matter of fact I was going up a mountain and there was a snow plow stuck and I walked right up around it with ease. This the first import that I have ever owned Subaru I research the car for 6 months before I purchased it, it was really hard to find anything bad or really negative about it you know other then people likening their brand better.
March 27, 2013awesomeness!! Acceleration is decent compared to an NA motor. Plenty of potential untapped from restrictive exhaust and inefficient intake. Body roll is excessive with stock sways. Solid build quality...as is with all japanese vehicles imo. interior styling is amazing, except for lack of bolster support, hence fatigue on long trips in those bucket seats. cloth seats are better than leathers. Gas mileage is expected with a turbo vehicle. Maintenance is at a minimal (Subarus ARE reliable). The grip takes some getting used to especially navigating sharp turns at high speed where a RWD vehicle would let the back end loose as expected... THRILL TO DRIVE all round!
June 7, 2012All wheel drive turbo charged goodness. Great all weather vehicle, with decent highway mileage, but staying off of boost is definitely hard to resist when you've got open roads ahead of you. Fun and practical. Steering is light but communicative. Long shifter throws, but a short shifter kit easily amends that. Bluetooth, AUX and iPod compatibility are nice amenities.
October 21, 2011They are good safe cars and hold there value
November 2, 2022Theyre great little cars not the fastest but they do have pep and you have to do the regular maintenance on those cars when it is time or you can stand a chance destroying the motor
