    I saw the Sport trim in Silver at the dealer. And honestly, I think it's the best looking Impreza. If you see it in person in sunlight, you'll see what I mean.

      I got one too. The 2024 Sport, Is fast enough! I did a moderate 1000-mile break-in as recommended. After the break-in, I got a top speed of 128 MPH recorded by Radar detector GPS and speedometer. 0-60 at 400 ft. above sea level was 8.6 seconds at 86 MPH. I don't think it is as sluggish as reported. The RS is not much faster and has about the same top end.

    If you wanted blind spot monitoring and or rear cross traffic, the option is so expensive, you may as well get the RS trim. That what I hate about considering getting an Impreza.

    I have a 2018 sport hatch down here in New Zealand. I have now done 134,000km, mostly on rural roads and motorway. I love this car and haven't ever noticed any lack of performance both in the engine and CVT, but I guess you could say my car is well 'run in' by now. Once the new model comes to NZ I will certainly look with a view to purchasing, but I am not that excited by the new interior so maybe I will just keep the current car. But without a doubt the best car I have owned, including 3 previous Legacy wagons.

      In an "Alex on Autos" review of the 2024 Impreza here on TH-cam, he demonstrates how the fix-a-flat kit area can be lifted out. Alex then shows the attachment point for a spare tire (around the 7:37 mark in Alex's review) and mentions how it's possible to use the Crosstrek's parts (since they're both built on basically the same body platform).

      I have a tire repair kit and 12v compressor in my truck and I haven’t dropped the fulll size spare in 4 years except to rotate tires. I’ve had 3 flats and fixed them all without pulling the tire. And I’d say that’s more than normal because I’m in and around construction sites a lot so the 2 screws I picked up were almost certainly came from that. Not sure about the one rusty nail… maybe it was on the road. Aggressive treads also seem to be expert at lifting pokey stuff up and orienting it straight into the tire.
