I just wanted to let you know that you make the BEST car review videos on youtube. I can't even think of anything you could of left out, and you videos really help me visualize how it is like to step inside the drivers seat without even leaving my house. You leave all competition in the dust, and I would like to thank you for creating these reviews

Your reviews absolutely kickass bro. Ya leave no stone unturned. For 27 grand a wrx is tough to beat. I put the seats down in my hatch and toss in my mountain bike or snowboard and go anywhere. I had a 02 corvette that was a really nice ride. But the truth is in the winter or when you want to take shit with you the awd plus the hatch is untouchable. I can even sleep comfortably in the back. best all around car I have ever had period.

As a car enthusiast, I can't say that I down all of the performance based reviews when it comes to cars such as the WRX or Evo. However, sometimes I really just want to see a simple review to know what the car simply looks/feels like to the everyday driver! I applaud channels like this. He's a car enthusiast who also knows how to give a thorough car tour that's simple enough for the everyday driver. Sometimes, that's all I want to know!

Kyle, great video as always. Excellent car too. I had a 04 Forrester XT turbo. That car was fast, very fast. Also extremely reliable. The only weakspot I found was the clutch. It needed a more durable clutch to handle full power upshifts. I could smell that certain smell of a hot or burning clutch. I traded it in with 110,000 miles, still had the original clutch.

Just got rid of my 06 STS V8 (not the STS-V) which had push button start and the whole nine yards, but I don't miss it one bit. The WRX is so fun to drive. Speed is really the only option you need. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can get a faster car for the money.

Test drive them. It really depends on your needs/tastes. I can imagine the evo costs more, but I know for a fact that it's faster and handles better (stock). What did the dealerships offer you? I'd recommend getting the email addresses of all the Sales Managers at the dealerships in your area. They won't need to worry about adding on commission for the sales guy and will give you a better deal. I just got $4000 off mine. Test driving tomorrow.
