WRX for the win! Sporty & safe.
The safety sensors are life savers on my Subaru as I needed them in the snow & ice before driving cross country. Love this WRX and it is AWD! The sunroof and the premium stitching on the car make it feel luxurious but still sporty. And, if I want to drive it in sport mode manually, I can do that or drive it automatic transmission mode.

WRX is affordable and a great every day car.
I love Subaru cars. And I love the WRX. It's a good looking car. Fun to drive. Lots of aftermarket parts to modify the car with. It's better on gas than my previous vehicles. Its spacious for a sedan. Easy to maintain so I do all the maintenance myself.

Red WRX get looks, from cops as well. I bought it used, 2 yrs old.
Just change oil. CVT is amazing. I use non-ethanol gas, better torque & mpg. Wife likes heated seats, I like dashboard options. Gets 30 mpg on highway about 25 mpg city. I got it for CVT auto transmission because of anticipated amputation on left foot. Dynamic cruise control is able to stop if needed based on speed of car ahead of you. Not sure if I could hit much when anti-collision system is on.

Vehicle is red, limited, with moon roof.
I have only had the car for a few months, have not had any issues with it yet with the exception of needing to replace a cv axle. The car is modified, so performance is higher than a stock option. I have wanted this vehicle since 2004 and was finally able to purchase.

It is a lot of fun and it is very fast.
Fun, fast, good mpg, looks great and it is a stick shift. It is a little expensive and has a lot of electronic parts that could go wrong down the road.

Subaru WRX- days can be boring but your drive shouldn't.
The Subaru WRX is a beast of a machine. Driving it aggressively with a manual transmission I am able to still beat the estimated mpg for the car and get around 25-27 mpg. It handles well and is comfortable, even for a tall 6’3 guy like myself. I can also fit two car seats in the back and still fit pretty comfortably. All around I trust it with me and my family's safety while it also provides a lot of enjoyment to drive.

Boxer engine, trash, reliable.
Great car overall only downside is that the engine had to be replaced. Keep up on your oil because I didn’t and that is why my cars engine blew also rod knock. It took about 4 days to complete costed 6000 to fix. But yeah great car love it comfy. Subaru.

WRX with few mechanical problems. Amazing sunroof and heated seats.
Vehicle is very comfortable and drives smooth. Easy transitioning between gears. Not many problems with mechanics. Easy access to any pet that may need to be looked at or fixed. Features a sunroof, screen radio, heated seats, and steering wheel controls.

My vehicle was the best purchase I've made.
There are no problems with this vehicle, the performance is great. The reliability is fantastic and the comfort is outstanding, some extra features that came with this Subaru WRX vehicle year 2016 is the adjustable seats and good speakers overall this car is great for almost anything you put it up too,

Love my Subaru WRX sti more everyday.
This vehicle is a great car, however it does have bad gas mileage. I would prefer to have a different daily if you are interested. It is quick, and very enjoyable. It is a quick neck turner for those around you when you are driving. I wouldn't go back on my decision of getting one though!
accountCircle Ary S on February 1, 2021
A terrific city car with amazing reliability and the right amount of fun.
This car is an absolute dream. The way it handles is amazing, especially in winter. The only downfalls are this, there is absolutely no lumbar support in the stock seats, meaning an hour into a trip and you are miserable. Secondly, if you live in a mountain town, be prepared to scuff up your side skirts no matter how hard you try to be careful, put holes and deep gutters are not your friend. In addition to this, stock suspension is so hard, which makes those potholes or dips in the road a nightmare. As far as performance, the WRX is a terrific city car and a blast to own.
accountCircle Wesley D on January 26, 2021
It is very easy to remove the back seat for racing or taking to the track!
This car is super reliable and easy to work on. Extremely lightweight as well with the back seats removed and very fun to drive! There's plenty of room in the back but it is not a massive car. I wish the back opened a little more smoothly but it makes for a sleek design so I cannot complain too much.

The sti is a fast but practical car.
The sti is for someone who is looking for a good daily driver with being able to go fast and feel the speed when they want. I haven't had a problem with mine since I've gotten it. You just need to keep up on the oil changes and everything and keep it good.

Buy a Subaru, the car that keeps it is value.
Good performance, good looking, fun to drive, holds monetary value, good pick up, fast, requires some maintenance, feels safe, trusted brand, comfortable seating roomy, big trunk, good head room, fairly good gas mileage, back up camera, air bags, spoiler.

My all time favorite car!
My 2016 WRX has been an all around amazing vehicle. My favorite thing about the vehicle is the performance to fuel economy; the car is very quick and fun to drive without having bad gas mileage. The option to drive a manual transmission was an amazing option and I enjoy the feel of driving a modern manual car.
accountCircle NN K on November 10, 2020
Great performance for the money.
Great performance, trim cost does not match up to trim quality. Plastic dashboard components do not please the eye. Comfortable, a lot of road noise does come through. Electronic transmission is still fun and sport mode does help. Roomy trunk and good rear passenger space.

They are sensitive so don't drive like a crazy person!
Bought it used with a brand new transmission a 25k miles. Starter went out about a month into owning it but no other issues. Love the way it runs and sounds. Very comfy and fast!

It's an all-wheel-drive turbo charged beast that has unlimited performance potential.
The only complaint I have about the car (wrx sti) is Subaru's lack of acknowledgement or improvements to it's engines ringland failure.
accountCircle John W on September 28, 2020
Subaru WRX, the blessing you want.
Subaru WRX CVT has a known transmission issue where the transmission will blow out almost always. While it is a good car it is a little disheartening to hear that your transmission will go out. Also the paint on the Subaru is extremely thin and the littlest of things will chip the paint. But for the value you do get a lot of power which is nice.
accountCircle Aubrey B on September 21, 2020
Overall reliable and fun to drive. Great for travel and animal transport.
I had always wanted a Subaru wrx, and often for the automatic for collectors purposes. The cvt transmission is very touchy and I often have to take it in for service to have the computer reset. It will randomly lag on power and have issues accelerating. There have also been a few issues with the ignition Starter getting stuck. Other than that, it is a reliable car.

The all wheel drive is amazing for the type of weather in Maryland. Great gas mileage. Comfortable interior.
I absolutely love the car. It has amazing gas mileage. It is very comfortable, although I think I would prefer cloth seats as far as the leather seats don't really hold up well. I love the heated seats in the front, but wish they were also in the back for my kids.
accountCircle Eli S on July 22, 2020
Great vehicle it is been a dream.
My 2016 Subaru WRX is fantastic and a dream come true! It has precision handling and it is quick to the touch and very comfortable. However the head unit for the speakers is not quite right and is probably in my opinion the biggest downfall of the vehicle.
accountCircle Veronica M on July 18, 2020
Subaru WRX very fast car.
Subaru WRX have a lot of mechanical issues. Replaced my transmission at 70k miles and my camshafts messed up at 110k miles. Apparently it is very common for WRX. My car is a semi automatic so I have also been told because that it is a semi automatic and wrx’s typically have a manual engine it has a higher chance of breaking down on me.
accountCircle Melissa L on July 8, 2020
The car is fun drive and has great safety features.
The 2016 Subaru wrx is fun to drive. The safety features are amazing. I really love the adaptive cruise control, especially when highway driving. The interior is sharp. I do wish Subaru would add a more dynamic spoiler on the back of the car to add to the sporty look.
accountCircle Yoon O on May 7, 2020
It's a solid value vehicle which costs way under other vehicles of similar performance. I like that it has 4 doors and is a fully functional family vehicle while maintaining a fun ride.
It's not that expensive. It's a great choice for anyone who likes to drive.

The sti 6 speed is very fun and enjoyable.
The car is very great although WRX is known to have problems head gasket. Other than that the car runs very smooth and allows for a good daily driver. Steering is great and suspension is comfortable for a daily driver. The cost is rather affordable for what you get in the car.

Fun and reliable wry-can't go wrong with any Subaru!
I have owned several wry and it is. I preferred the hatch back and hoping they come back. I was interested in another wry in white. A gently used 2016 base was affordable and I later upgraded to add heated seats from the dealer which seem to warm up quicker than the preinstalled factory ones. It has been reliable & comfortable. AWD and 6 speed manual make it easy to drive in all weather conditions including snow. Lots of hp and speed, good torque, turning radius. Comfortable on long drives-cruise control makes long drives bearable. For a sedan it is roomy with enough leg space. Seats fold down if needed. I have been able to fit 4 spare wheels in the trunk with the back seats down. Dash and console are visually appealing and allows for usb, Bluetooth , Pandora, etc. Backup camera is good, but I have seen later models that are more detailed with your vehicle's position. I will always buy Subaru as all previous models I have owned have been reliable, comfortable, and fun if you like speed.

Sporty, good looking and youthful.
No issues. The vehicle has had a dead battery, but gets regular maintenance and has given me zero issues to date. The only gripes I have are cheap plastic interior which over time begins to rattle everywhere and drives me nuts. The other thing is, the paint is very thin and easily chipped by road driving.

Turbo Subaru WRX AWD fast car
No problem this car is amazing. Live driving it you feel the power and feel very safe behind the wheel. AWD , turbo 2.0 liter motor great suspension to support cornering. Very roomy in this vehicle. Great on gas mileage when you tune her and add performance you really feel a huge difference in the power. Its like your waking the car up .

Subaru love! Great dependable car overall!!
Hello! I am a sub owner! It drives well, but has terrible suspension! Good on gas but kind of a noise maker (sounds like a sports car). Its pretty good on size. Fits my three member family perfect! The seats are great and comfortable. I love the heat options.

Subaru WRX is awesome but pretty costly.
Info system is terrible. The car itself is great but I have so much trouble connecting Bluetooth in my car at any time. It's difficult to drive without Wi-Fi connection. The car is notchy on the shift but that's normal for my year and model. It's decent horsepower and 4 cyl turbo make it fun to drive and operated.

The Subaru WRX is a cool car but shifting is a workout
I like how quickly my car accelerates and the rumbling sound it makes when I start it, not to mention it looks great. I don't like the stiffness of the shifting, and it is cumbersome to drive in traffic.

Subaru is one of the best cars for show and performance. Worth the high cost.
I absolutely love my Subaru. It had 4 different settings when driving. Also turbo. I recommend not keeping it stock and adding a mid and down pipe to increase the performance and sound. Very reliable car. Also the manual is the way to go when it comes to Subaru. Parts are not cheap but they last a while.

WRX a lot of fun to drive.
The WRX is a lot of fun to drive. With 268 HP is it really gets up and goes. The symmetrical AWD is also nice. So far reliability is ok. Having kids and having a sports car usually don't mix, however with WRX you can have both.Always make sure to do the scheduled maintenance and you will have the car for a long time.

Great performance, transmission is finicky sometimes, rigid suspension, 9/10.
I have a 2016 WRX with a CVT transmission. Overall I love the car, just expect a rough ride on bumpy roads. In normal driving conditions, the CVT is great but once you floor it while in 'intelligent' mode expect a delay. This is not a problem in 'sport' or 'sport#' modes.
accountCircle Meg B on September 15, 2019
Needs more comfort and better electronics.
Overall I love my cars performance however there are a few things that could improve to a 5 star rating from me. Adding an armrest would improve comfort for long rides. The electronic system is lacking as well. Not compatible with older iPods, Bluetooth is iffy at times as well.

Very reliable and fun car to drive.
Oil drain plug is made of a soft metal with strips often. I have to replace at least 4 oil drain plug before install a drain valve. Over torqued of tire lug will cause tire studs to snap when you try to break torqued. I have to replace studs with stronger aftermarket studs and lug nuts.

Reliable family car but quick racing when needed.
I love my Subaru, and it is the only brand of cars I have ever owned. The 2016 model is amazing and has plenty of room for my kids in the back, and very comfortable all around. The back up camera is a life saver, I just wish there was an audible sensor for it. While the performance is not as strong as my previous wrx, it still has good kick when it needs it. I absolutely love Subaru cars and they are always my first pick when I am shopping.

Subaru WRX is a joy to drive.
I love my Subaru WRX, it is fast and has plenty of grip on the road. It is still roomy enough to fit my sons car seat in the back.

Too low to the ground, not a car to drive in inclement weather
Too low to the ground, I feel very uncomfortable when driving in snow and ice. I can feel snow and ice scraping beneath me. The car is also a little too small and oddly shaped for such a high performance car. I plan to buy a forester in the near future.
accountCircle David P on May 21, 2019
Performance in all types of weather would not buy any other vehicle for year around driving.
Problems that have happened is engine failure due to Subaru using less inferior parts. I bought this car because I really like the design and the performance that it has no matter what the weather is. The car is really reliable once everything is set on it. Performance mods do decrease reliability but people who generally buy these cars mod them. The car has many features and the comfort is nice but the inside is still basic but for a performance car a luxury interior is not expected. This is my 4th Subaru in 14 years. 2 outbacks and 2 WRXs.
