2018 Subaru WRX STI consumer reviews

This car has everything I would like in the car or on it drives smooth also the features and speed on t and e car is amazing

I got the feeling that subi wants to squeeze as much as it can out of the current wrx chassis. Not much has changed over the years. Over the short time I got to drive the car this is what I've noticed that improved. The brake feel so much better. There's lots more bite to them. Also the tires I think since they are 19 inch thinner side wall it turns in quicker. As for the interior all much the same. If you want a fun drive to work stress reliever this could make for a good ride

Excellent style and good price. I couldn?t believe how reliable and comfortable the car handles. I can?t believe how satisfied I am with not only the ride but the style of the vehicle.

I loved this car as soon as I get money to buy the car I will be there ASAP it?s an amazing car everything I wanted

Always wanted an STi and now I finally own one! Stupidly quick and begs you to push it harder and faster - only wish the bolsters were a little snugger. Cruises well on the highway and gets reasonable gas mileage considering it's an older drivetrain and mechanical AWD. Love the headlights and that they swivel when you turn. Trunk is well sized given the size of the car. All and all I'm very pleased with the purchase and have no second guesses or buyer's remorse

Finally got my dream car. Even though it is all wheel drive. This snow has me sad, as I don't want to drive and ruin my new car so I take my truck. But on the clear days it is a blast feeling free just driving.

While there are some shortcomings (Infotainment), the car itself is the best value you are going to get at this price point. Sure go ahead and buy a used luxury sports vehicle....you will have missed out on the raw yet comfortable nature of the Subie! So happy with my purchase!

I think the STi is an all around vehicle. You can drive it year-round, whether it be the driest of summer, the wettest of spring, or the iciest of winter. What makes it buyable is it is a perfect fit for a family because it is a Sedan(four-door vehicle). Its 2.5 four-cylinder boxer engine which includes the most solid suspension and symmetrical AWD system allows you to conquer all types of roads. Interestingly, there are also three different modes it has-Intelligent, Sport, and Sport Sharp. These are three different maps embedded in its ECU. If you want to save fuel simply go onto Intelligent mode. Sometimes if we prefer spirited driving then Sport Sharp mode is the way to go. If you want a mixture of sporty and fuel efficienct driving, then Sport mode is the one you want to choose. Overall, the STi is a very unique car because it is both fuel efficient and a solid sports car that can comfort an individual or a family.

This car is beyond anyones needs but its always fun to have something extra to your car , its powerful perforance is unbelievable and all around probably the best car you can get !

I test drove several cars in this class and overall this was the most fun. The Golf R is refined by terribly boring and given the continued reliability of this model I pulled it off my list. The Ford Focus RS was a performer and definitely not boring but the driving position was way too tall with a really tall front cushion. Just a bizarre and really uncomfortable driving position. The interior is also lacking quality with a ton of hard plastics. The rear seat room is laughable compared to the other two cars. Reliability has been suspect as well with cracked engine blocks affecting a lot of the 2016 and 2017 versions of the Focus RS. The STI is not the fastest of the three but it has the most room, the highest reliability record, full time AWD (the Golf R is a part time system and the Focus RS's system will sometimes shut off rendering it FWD only), and best aftermarket support.
