Good all Around that has superb AWD
The WRX is a fun little car that put the Driver in Charge. steering is smooth and tight. Acceleration is unbeatable at the price range and the mountain driving is amazing. This car handles all the climates well and shows great power and control while driving in the snow. It comes with all the entertainment features you would expect and though the Interior is average, the money is in the performance of the car. I would suggest getting rid of the stock tires. If highway driving I get better Gas mileage than advertised. It is a great car at the price.

2015 WRX
The inside is designed so smoothly and I always get compliments on the red stitching with my black interior. I purchased my car in Colorado and drove it back to Kansas in one day and the ride was perfect. The car is just the right amount of speed to fill my need for daily fun while driving. I would recommend everyone to at least drive a wrx.

Amazing performance - Average Daily Driver
I've owned a few dozen cars and this WRX is one of the most exhilarating cars to drive (maybe even more fun than a BMW 335xi). Any time I'm in the mood to play around my WRX never lets me down. But I'm 2 years into ownership and this car does have some downfalls. The styling could be better... not many people look at the car and go "wow that's cool," unless of course they are car enthusiasts who know how the car. The base speakers and radio are pretty awful and the interior materials are what you'd expect from a basic car (not that great). My biggest frustration with the WRX is the ride quality on the highway. It's just too bumpy and the fuel economy is usually less than the 28 it was rated at. (it will get 30 mpg doing 65 but at the normal 75-80 highway speeds that drops to 26-27) If you want cheap power by this car.. if you want an all around comfortable, smooth, and powerful ride then buy another sedan with 250-300 HP (bmw 335, audi a4, ford fusion sport, nissan maxima, etc). Last comment -- I'm really excited for the next generation of the WRX. Hopefully in 2020 they will improve the styling and up the power.

Best Car Ever
Bought this car new in the Limited CVT trim model. Was really surprised how fun the CVT actually is. It goes fast when you want it to and corners like a boss. I would recommend this car to anyone that is looking to get into something sporty. No issues with the car since the beginning and currently at 20000 miles. As long as maintenance is done on time all the time this car will last you a very long time.

A great AWD sports sedan
I have had a 2015 WRX (base model, 6-speed manual) for almost a year, and it has been trouble-free. Acceleration, steering, cornering, and grip are all oustanding. The car is a blast to drive. Since the car comes with summer performance tires, you will need snow tires November through April if you live where winters can be fierce. The seats, driving position, and visibility are all top-notch. If you like driving for its own sake, and love feeling engaged with your car and the road, this is the car for you. Pictures don't do this car justice. You have to see one in person from all angles. If you get a beautiful color, it is one fine-looking car indeed.

Excellent Choice
I have had this car for a lttile over a year now. No issues to report, no problems except a stubblorn gas lid door (fixed under warrenty). The car corners like it has spikes. It can actually seat 4 American sized adults and has an easy to use trunk. You can actually see out of this car (a scarce trait today) Bang-for-buck there is little or no competition. MPG per performance - again very strong. 0-60mpg in 5 sec and get 32+MPG highway ? amazing. Ride can be a bit harsh with passengers, and its not a quiet car. But it rips. Start doing some gentle modifications and the car comes alive even more, while remaining reliable and efficient. If you think you want one - you do.

Yup!
This is my first brand new car I have ever purchased. A WRX has always been a dream car to me, and the 2015 really does the job for me. The twin scroll turbo is amazing, along with the whole new concept of this engine alone. The handling is unreal, taking exits and cornering with an add of boost is a thrill. I think this is the first time that I will actually say, "I can't wait for it to snow."

My First Subaru, and I'm impressed
This car does so many things well; Comfort, performance, handling, good fuel economy and great looks. I got 34.5 mpg at 72mph on my first road trip. However, it will be hard to stay out of the turbo in order to get that kind of fuel economy every day :) Great value for the money too.

Excellent Car!
Read the previous 7 reviews which were really helpful in pumping me up for my factory order. Every review here lived up to it's value! Got in day one and was extremely impressed! I've drove this as my second brand new car & a line of manual cars and I have to say this was a major upgrade! Very pleased with the performance of it as you get to 2K-2K & a half RPMs you really get that turbo kick! It has exceptional traction on the road as you cut for turns. The exterior styling of it was one I fell in love with and presents such muscularity. It was a no brainer replacement from my last. The value for the money was so on key! The price tag on this car is so priced well when you compare it against it's other competitor car peers with the exact same power for a fraction of the pricing, it's just amazing! Simply put, I LOVE THIS CAR A LOT!!!

Vaguely familiar
I have had a number of great cars. I even owned a sunbeam alpine. I had a 3 convertible and I always get stick. There is something vaguely familiar about the way this car handles. Almost like a go-cart. Its not cheap, or uncomfortable, but the connection to the road is like a "short vet". I had a corvair monza with dual webers, a coupe and it took the on off ramps kinda like this car. I hope to keep this for a long time. I wish they made a convertible.
