2001 Subaru Impreza WRX review from Jordan
"The ultimate sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, absolutely nothing.
Great car, just like the previous model, but even more prestigious and more reliable.
WONDERFUL CAR!!!
General comments?
Tremendous sports car, just like the last model, but with even better grip (try imagining that when you know that the last model had amazing grip!!!) on all tracks.
The engine responds better now through the great new 6-gear manual transmission gear box. This car zooms from 0-100 in 5.6 seconds (the previous model took 6.4 seconds!!!) and the interior is much much better - more reliable looking dashboard, a great sound system (the previous model had a sickening one!!!)
The biggest improvement of this new car is its steering system, it just feels so much better. The previous model had a great steering system, but this is the ultimate steering system I have ever experienced, you just feel everything on the road, it gives you so much more confidence.
The oval shaped lights are OK... but I do believe that the previous model was even prettier!!!
All in all... a great car.
