Subaru: wrx mt vs brz mt

[carljenar]

I'm planning to buy a new car this month. I'm 24 years old and currently have a hyundai accent. Just wanna know your opinions on these 2 car. I'm looking for a headturner car with good performance. Halos same lang price nila and both good looking cars. Thanks in advance.

the wrx is a more practical car and has more power. but if you want a really good handling car then the brz is truly one hell of a car and it's a better looking car than the wrx. yes the brz isn't fast but the only car that can handle as well as the brz is the porsche carrera s, at the track sti's and evo's will have a hard time to shake off the brz.

I have seen performance upgrades (supercharger) for the brz from speedlab. Question is how much performance can you squeeze out of the stock engine?

Bro, yung brz mo ba di palagi sumasayad sa mga humps? Parang brz na naisip ko bilhin kasi may pang everyday naman na ko. And pwede ba malaman kung how much is the average cost for your PMS for your BRZ? Thanks. May available na sa MI global kaso silver lang for MT.

WRX anytime! Yung red! Built for harsher road conditions, bigger, more practical, less douchy, less prone pag-initan. hehehe Both will turn heads.

Brz pag may other car ka pa. Mas eye catching for me. At para sa mga walang alam sa sasakyan, parang ordinary sedan lang ang wrx while brz sports car agad

never pa naman ako sumayad since di naman daily driver yung brz and yung pinupuntahan ko mga lugar mababa lang humps. yung ibang mga ka group ko sa club namin na naka lowered na sa humps kaya naman daw hirap lang daw sa mga mall parking na mataas ang entrance/exit.

pms cost is around 5-7k fully synthetic na gamit ng MI.

if mag brz ka bro let me know invite kita agad sa group namin very active and friendly. we have more than 100 members na pero nasa 50 lang talaga yung active yung iba pa sulpot sulpot lang. it's advisable na mag join ka para ma maximize mo yung brz incase yon ang kunin mo.

Pwede ba WRX as daily driver and long drives like Makati to Pagudpod?

yes, ok naman yung clutch ng manual niya not as heavy as the brz and STi. yon nga lang the m/t wrx doesn't have some of the features of the cvt wrx.

Pero pag di naka lowered wala naman problema sa parking sa mga mall? Kasi yung parking namin sa cebu pacific basement baka sumayad ako. Yung dalawang ka batch ko sa work naka brz prehas naka lowered kaya di sila makapark sa basement. I think brz won in this one. Thanks a lot bro. Sabihan kita agad pag nakuha ko na para maka sali ako sa brz club nyo.

Kapag ikaw pipili for daily drive manual or cvt wrx?

[foresterx]

depende din sa mall na pupuntahan mo talaga. i think kung 1" mo lang i lower di ka mahihirapan pero 1.5-2" medjo mahirap na yon. sige bro let me know para ma invite kita sa group.

cvt wrx kunin ko for daily driving. pero would never get the current wrx, parang ito ata pinaka mabagal na wrx. yung previous model wrx mas mabilis pa compared to the current model. in terms of handling and other aspects it has improved but sa power mas bumagal siya.

Ok thanks. Masyado na kasi ako nilalambing nung girl sa Subaru pero hindi pa ako makapag decide sa Mazda3 vs WRX vs CX5 vs Forester

Sorry sa OT.

Wala ko plan ipa lower naman if ever. Palit lang muna ko ng mags yun lang plan ko. So no problem sya sa mga mall parking pag di ko pinalower?

Actually, instrumented tests suggest it's nearly as quick as the current STI. It does feel wheezy at the top of the range, though, but I think that's because there's so much down low torque. (talking about the new 2.0 WRX)

-

If you're comparing the CVT to the old car... yeah... the CVT does kind of take something away.

yup was talking about the CVT, not sure about the M/T since i was only able to test drive it in edsa. feedbacks from previous wrx owners though the fastest wrx is the hawkeye wrx.

would i get the wrx over the brz, yes if it was going to be a daily driver but i'd get the CVT. the only reason i'd get an M/T is if i'm going to track it and in the track i'd rather be driving a brz over the wrx anyday.
