  • I can't believe it's been about 6 years since I got my WRX! Time flew by. Looking back at all my service records it's shocking how cheap and reliable this thing has been. Just basic maintenance and a couple recalls that got fixed.
    Car was stage 2 for a couple years when I first got it. I used to run an Invidia Q300 with a catless downpipe. It was even straightpiped at once. Also ran DGR coilovers for awhile. Lately I've been keeping it stock with a cobb ots stage 1 tune with stock exhaust and stock intake. No problems at the moment.

    I have a 2013 also and have had no issues with it even with stage 2. These can be good cars as long as you take good care of them.

      @@Fckfwd I assume he just means being on top of maintenance and religious about oil changes. I just brought home my 13 wrx and I've been doing my research and and many people say that. But it's incredibly fun and I love the car

    I used to own a 17 STI now I own a 2019 WRX. I love it. It’s so good on gas vs. the STI. One may wonder why in the world would I trade it.. in a way I did not. When I got rid of the STI I bought a Toyota Corolla iM. I liked that car however it just wasn’t the car for me I think it was the Cvt that didn’t do it for me. I got the Toyota for far drives to work in LA.. I am amazed that the WRX is only 2-3 AVG mpgs less than the Toyota.. so worth it for being a much more fun car.

    Have the exact same protection film on the door panels of my 2013 WRX that went grey/dirty just like yours. Takes awhile to get them off but you should definitely because a few more years it will crack and removing it will take off the clear coat. I used a heat gun and putty scraper worked great no damage to the paint

    Just a heads up, the Stage 1 Map is slower than the stock map. Coming from an auto tech who just put it on my stock 2011 wrx. Took it off right away, it just put the power band into mid range rpm and got rid of the top end pull which is where the car makes good power..

    So I'm looking at a used 2013 Impreza wrx sti , it's one of my favorite models but it's at a local dealer kinda over priced at 19,000 in my opinion cause its has almost 130,000 isn't that alot of miles ? But yeah appreciate the video only thing it's not the best for realistic dailying cause majority dont take vacations from their car lmao
