    Mas maganda ang hatchback nito sir diba but yung gas consumption hindi yata practical.

    I like the look of this one to the outgoing STi sedan.

    Mga tulad ko siguro ang niche ng wrx. Yung hindi na kaya ng lower back ang tagtag, mahina na ang tuhod at balakang for a manual. May evo 5 ako dati when i was on my 20's pero now pag iniisip ko hindi ko na kaya yung ganun. But it does not mean the love for performance is gone. Kung maraming pera siguro that can purchase an STi for the sole purpose of a weekend car why not pero hindi ako ganun. Marami ako nakikitang mga naka-STi na college boy or yuppie, tama ba spelling? Panay B-plate naman or tagaktak ang pawis habang nagyoyosi kahit tirik ang araw. Besides, it makes more sense to put an a/t or cvt whichever ang tawag diyan sa wrx rather than in an STi. Like you said, ang STi are for those who are in the harder side.

    My opinion lang kaibigan :-)

    wrx and sti are easy to drive daily since durable sila and not so low. yon nga lang lakas sa gas kahit cvt pa yung wrx lakas pa din sa gas.

    I test drove the wrx last week along white plains. Ho humm . Wasnt impressed by the speed or acceleration. No kick. The CVT even in paddle shift mode feels wierd. Otherwise its very nicely kitted. Looks like my forester XT inside with a few additional changes to the guages and extra pages on the lcd screen. No panoramic roof though. Was in sport and sport# modes.

    So... the slurring as with the FXT CVT is still there, huh?

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    In manual mode,it doesnt upshift at the redline so there is some jerkiness there if you leave your shifts too late .....

    Also, downshifts dont give much drama or kick but i felt lots of jerkiness with my head snapping forward and backwards. The effect is unnerving. Kawawa your passengers. Never had this with downshifts in the Legacy . The CvT is the culprit i am sure. Manual mode in the FxT as well sucks balls after the novelty of 8 virtual gears wears off.

    I never left in on automatic mode when going full throttle. Maybe that would help but it would be boring as there was no driver interactivity.

    My Legacy with its ancient 5-speed automatic feels much much faster (though the comparison is a bit unfair as mine is tuned).

    My beef with the tranny in the FXT is that, yeah... the 8-speed mode is not that responsive, and if you're caning it down a winding road, it starts slurring as you pour on the power. Never had that issue with the non-turbo Fozzie or the XV.

    Agree, *foresterx: They should have stuck to a traditional 6-speed auto for the WRX... would suit its character much better.

    it's a stupid ass idea to put in a cvt on the wrx. such a disappointment just like the sti a-line. anyway MI is willing to bring the wrx m/t by order, 1st batch is arriving august.

    Wanted to add...... And with a CVT, no one will really tune their WRX for more power. Theyd be too scared to fry the transmission.
