I test drove one of these in manual this summer without a sales rep in the car with me. I drove it like a complete jerk and came nowhere near the limits. I took tight on ramps at 55-60mph with total confidence and no tire squeal. 50mph to 80mph pulls in 3rd gear on the highway were lightning fast. The bigger displacement and smaller turbo were very noticeable compared to an EJ and the last gen FA20. There's 180hp NA motor torque available right away, and then after a couple of seconds you feel it double as the boost kicks in, so very usable in suburban traffic. The steering was feelingless BUT since I'm never going to reach it's limits, it's not such a big deal. I agree with the Topher that the dual pinion rack is very quick and direct. It's Audi S5 levels of precise! Also I concur the lack of rev hang and great throttle mapping make it a very fun and satisfying manual shifting experience!

We had our first dusting of snow yesterday, maybe 1/4 inch on the road, and everyone was sliding around and doing 10mph on the twisty backroads. Guy in front of me let me pass, and even with aids full off I could not get it to do anything. I mean, I'm sure I could toss it into the guardrail if I wanted, but driving excessively fast on A/S 4's it wouldn't slide or lock the brakes. The traction is almost worrisome, to be honest.

Pedal box is great, gas is responsive and heel-toe is great. The looks have also grown on me. For the 2k discounts that are common right now, its some of the most car for the money on the market right now. They are underrated now, which is nice. The engine was also very linear, compared to the twitchy nature of the GRC. Quite grown up, I was impressed.

I have a 19 Camry after this I definitely want an upgrade, with good power, AWD, and affordable hopefully at MSRP or under. I’ve even seen some WRX Limited for 36k which is probably what I would go for since the seats get nicer by the trim.

So basically it’s all about timing when shifting, clutching all the way in is 100% needed to engage and disengage the flywheel. Depending on what situation your in for example one a stop sign you would downshift usually 1st gear (if your able to see cars and if it’s clear if not neutral). Traffic lights is different wanna hit into neutral so you don’t cause strain onto your engine. But the WRX’s have fantastic short throws for decently fast shifting.

Most likely better off with the Civic Si, but if you can wing it, step up to the Elantra N. Those two cars for their respective price points will definitely live up to your expectations.

Love this car, only thing i don't like is the infotainment system, trying to be like a tesla. I sold my 18 GT 86, not enough power

The traditional 2.0 engine is the best solution, the 2.4 goes very well with the GR/BRZ but this ruins everything!!! Normally with 3 different engine blocks Subaru could have covered all the ranges of the brand!!!!!

Own one. It drives well, yes. The infotainment screen during the day is dangerously bad. Test drive one when it’s sunny outside, that’s all I have to say. And also, the fuel economy is real bad. Like Ford F150 Ecoboost bad. Just be prepared to fill up every 235-250 miles sometimes with normal driving if you’re doing city mostly.

Random question… can you lock the door from the outside with the key or door handle while the car is running? I had a rental Civic sport a few weeks back and was shocked to find I couldn’t lock the doors with the car running while I ran into a store. I don’t always want to turn the car off especially if it’s still running/warming up.

I got a Honda and a Subaru, both can't do what you want... On the Subaru tho, it's a stop start button instead of the key, but you can do this when you are inside the car turned on... Lock the doors with the central locking button. Open manually on driver side and get out, lock manually and then close the door, then all the doors will be locked. To open, don't use the central locking unlocking button, use the one next to the door or it won't work. Take the emergency key out of the key fob to unlock the door by inserting it in the key hole, driver's side, assuming you got one, mine does... If you don't have one just forget all the steps, it's impossible I think.

Great car, although I kind of think the gearbox (shifter maybe?) is a rattling a little bit between shifts and might get annoying after a while…
