2011 Subaru Impreza WRX 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
Fourth car in 4 years. And I am ABSOLUTELY in love with this car. Nothing else to say about it. It's a great car. Good bang for the buck without a doubt. Super fun car to drive!
I really do like the car, but there are issues

First the good:
This car is a lot of fun when the snow starts to fly.
Living in MN this was important to me.
The all wheel drive in the WRX never disappoints.
I run General's winter tire and if anything the grip is too good even with traction control turned off.
The bad:
In the first year two bearings failed (throw-out and transfer).
For summer driving the suspension is too soft.
The … seats lack lateral support, you slide all over the place.
The dead pedal is too small (size 10 shoe). Pedals are too close together and your knee will hit the steering column when left foot braking.
Front fascia will crack very easily ($750 to fix). Paint chips easily. 5 speed shifter is very clunky.
Great Car!!!

I was in the market for a new car and couldn't be happier with my decision.
Considered Accord Coup V6, Evo Ralliart, GTI, and Mazda 3.
I was very impressed with the performance of the WRX.
Quick acceleration and great handling!!
The interior cabin is quite spacious considering it's a compact car.
I was hoping for better gas mileage but that's due to a heavy foot!
I'm avg 20 in town and … about 28 highway.
