The Impreza WRX/STi certainly doesn't have the nicest-sounding boxer engine.
They do have quite some potential though; there was a 600+ hp WRX at a past Texas Motor Speedway Friday Night Drags event I went to that easily outran a GT-R almost immediately upon launching.

Those early cars are now falling into the hands of the civic crowd. Off the showroom floor they are twice the price though so it takes a while for it to trickle to douche level.

that's the one thing about owning this- there are so many dip****s out there modding just to "Mod" their cars- SURPRISE! engine goes kaboom and they blame Subaru for making a "weak" engine. It's comical to see the kids just do something, anything so they can talk about how "Modded" they are online.
Here's a hint guys: 1) A CAI and a bigger exhaust would've been done from the factory if it was needed- it's not like Subaru didn't figure those tricks out already.
2)- a "tuner" is usually just a bro with a laptop. He don't know **** either. Crank up everything until big #'s show up, warranty voided and hope it holds together...
