Q: We all know that the Subaru WRX (especially the STI version) is a real performer. If you look at the rest of Subaru's lineup, especially the Legacy & Forrester models, does their combination of AWD and Turbo'd engines make Subaru a performance car?

A: Compared to other standard non turbo 2WD econoboxes - yes.

Q: Is this company really making strides in the performance arena?

A: Absolutely - especially when you consider the day to day practicality and "bang for buck" factors.

Q: On the technical side, does the combination of AWD and a Turbo make a better performer than either one alone?

A: Depends on what you want to use it for. Based on what has been happening in the world of rallye for the last couple of decades - yes.

Q: What are your thoughts?

A: 99.8% of people who buy a performance car don't really need one. It just gives them a sense of belonging.
