2000 Subaru Impreza WRX review from Australia and New Zealand
"A faultless car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nil.
General comments?
This model is the domestic Japanese version not exported beyond Japan.
It features the high output engine (184 kw vs. the usual 160 kw), and includes high intensity discharge headlights used on the current Sti.
The handling is truly unbelievable, and the combination of lots of power and 4WD make the car a dream to drive on B - grade roads.
The seats are very comfortable, but not too hard like similar performance cars.
