*Also, what generation WRX is your favorite?!*
Easily the first gen. Those cars are incredible!
You know that those first generation Imprezas whitch are 50k-150k are 22B models you can easily get an first generation STI for under 10k.
@@snek3870 Yeah especially the 2 door models.
@Ideal Cars my brother has a 06 WRX and his daily driver
1st thing that comes to mind when I think of Subaru is rally racing and the gorgeous blue paint.
Tqu for ur offer but I'm not interested. sorry
I was quite surprised when I found out subaru hasn't been in the WRC since 2008 and changed to the 24 hours of the nurburgring.
Don’t forget the gold rims, hood scoop and big wing! Iconic as hell
I'm interested in getting the beast from the rising sun the 22b and I'm keeping it blue 👍😎🇺🇸
I can't watch videos about WRXs because then I spend all night searching for them on FB Marketplace.
You're not the only one dealing with that kind of insomnia brother...
I feel you 😪
I feel you 😭🤷🏽♂️ i ended up buying an impreza 🙃
Dreamed of owning one as a kid, obsessed seeing them drive by while driving in a clunker, searched them on facebook market place, dealer websites, or equivalent website and having to virtually drive nothing but a WRX in games. Now as an adult I am a proud owner of one. Christ it was a journey, great car and tons of fun.
That is me currently, I've always dreamed of owning one. At the end of June I finally completed my childhood dream of getting myself a Subaru WRX and it was worth the wait!
subi:_vroom!!!_
subtitles: *music*
truth
My dad had a 1995 impreza in dark green and was so cool listening to down the motorway
My dad left me
@@Dazai_Ren At least you had a dad, my mom had an immaculate conception
@@elonmuskgaming9746 jesus?
My boy back at it again. 😉
I just got a 2013 3rd gen ONE OWNER impeccably maintained WRX hatch and I LOVE IT. I genuinely found a diamond.
Ahh my favorite videos are watching people who don’t really know anything about a vehicle and talk like they do because they have pages to read off of and some things they looked up online.
Exactly. A lot of wrong information in this video. 🤦
I bet you’re fun at parties
@@billy6500 Actually just got home from my co workers bday party, we had a blast lol
Can you link me to the WRX video you've produced? I'd love to see it.
dude I'm bashing my forehead over here with all this wrong info. I thought I would like the vid just cuz of the topic, but this just hurts.
I love my 2020 wrx. 15,000 miles since last august.
Good for you man, I kind of want one👍
yeah dude 20.000 on my 2020 sti
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO.Cause I am probally going to get a bug eye or a stink face
@Ideal Cars trash scam
I suggest you get 04-05 blob eye wrx sti, 300 hp stock, and by far it is probably the most hardcore car subaru has come up with
@@commanderasshole8308 06-07 are just as good
I have a modded 08 I spent about 9k in mods including internal components and left the stock look and it is a V8 smasher at about 350+ hp it also kills off the line and sounds amazing
@@zeropm92 nice, I spent around 29k on my 04 with no regrets, EJ20 swapped it and it now makes around 504HP, going to install a Cosworth dry sump oil system and a twin turbo kit soon
I’m on my third Subaru and my second wrx ... started with a 98 obs then got a bugeye wagon wrx and now have and love my 2015 WRX .. im hooked .
I had a 2004 wrx wagon. Sold it when my son was born... miss the car and will return to the wrx soon.😂
My favorite car. I have a 2016 sti prem unmolested. I absolutely loved it for years. But I still want a blob eye
I finally got a 1999 WRX GC8, a dream came true!
My neighbor has a hawk eye wrx and he rb26 swapt it, it's all wheel drive, manual and has 700hp. He thinks he made it reliable but if you ask me that's a sin.
That sounds like a lot of work.
Picked up a 2004 WRX with 174k that was stock and had a subaru dealership rebuild 2k miles ago for 9800. Stoked!
Arguably the best Subaru videos out there. Great educational lesson. Fantastic job, Squidd.
Thanks Kellington! Now I just need to actually buy one...
Make a video why concepts are never brought through the design process to become a reality....please.
Thanks.
I've always been a loyal Chevy girl. But after my 11' MaliBoo had to have 2 transmissions due to wave plate shattering and still under 100k; Im exhausted at how they have turned. My daughter had a BA 16' WRX I enjoyed cruising in and fell in love. She found a 12' Impreza Sedan all stock 52k clean title at her lot and I bought it that day sight unseen. Im now a Subi loyalist. About 6 more payments and may motivate to the wrx, but my Impreza 2.0i all stock crazy as it seems has taken a dozen expensive mod ricers. Man Im so glad I bought Medusa.
They are fantastic cars! I've owned a couple and my moms been driving an old Forester for like a zillion years now and it runs like new.
Always love a good video about wrx/sti considering I finally got my first sti which is an 06 2 weeks ago
Congrats!
@@IdealMediaChannel thanks! It has 127k miles but did some compression tests and checked for any leaks and the engine is still strong and healthy!
Great video. Would love a STI specific video
I'm 23 and I just brought an 03 blobeye. Just a bit happy
The hawkeye WRX got the EJ255 not EJ225. There were some other mistakes in this video but it was ok to watch.
I have a 02 bug eye and I love it, very planted and handles so well, lots of grip and the turbo pulls you out the corners
Kinda jealous. I have ALWAYS wanted a bug eye wagon. Glad you have a WRX to enjoy!
Yessssir 🙌🏽 STI version please 🤙🏽
There's my baby the Subaru wrx sti hatchback 😊 I loved it since dirt 2
I live in the city, I just bought a new 2021 WRX with a CVT, I love it. No manual shifts faster than this.. but having a manual transmission is way more fun, unless there is a lot of traffic or trying to drive while holding something else.
East or West ideal car is the best
@Ideal Cars I love but can't understand
Absolutely loving my 2017 limited 😁
The gc8 sti you've shown was a 22b which is a limited edition version and a valuable one, but if you search for a normal gc8 sti you can find for around 20k-30k.....even with this prices it is a masterpiece
Gotta love that subaru rummble
My uncle own a Blobeye WRX STi equipped with Subaru Rally livery and also a clean white Evo 9 both have around 400hp though 🤤😩
Best of both worlds!
@@IdealMediaChannel yes it is!
Yes STi video please! Bugeyes are my favorite
Wrx shredded at rally
My favorite is the hawk eye
Me too!
Loved this! Love to see the STI vid too
The history of the STI will sell.
My dream car that I want to own someday 3:25 along with a S2000/S15 :D
I have a blue 2004 sti with the ej207, great car
When i see a rally styled 1st gen impreza. It always reminds me of Collin McCrae and Tommy Makinen's rivalry in WRC in the 90's, same with Michael vs Mika in F1. Exciting moments for me, when i was a kid.
I have the last of the rear wheel drive 125 msport BMWs and I will be considering a new 2022 WRX. Just purchased the new outback and which just was released in Australia, what a beautiful vehicle. Can’t get anything on the market that compares to the outback for 50k AU’s. Subaru’s are extremely good vehicles, very excited to see what’s to come! Great video and would like to see one on the STI please!
Great video.
More please. STI.
I like the first gens and the 2019+ VA's with the RA engine.
Make an evolution of the sti video please
I really want to hear your guy's story about the STI Subaru!
Nice video my favorite Subaru is the BUGEYE
I got a 2011 WRX stock and hope is not modified before because I'm the 5th owner lol so far I have not found anything modified. Only have it for 2k miles so far and I love it!
The involution Subaru Impreza😉
The "Well Grown Up" Subaru Impreza WRX is kind of not that bad. I personally like the Hawkeye ('06-'07) and the 22B STI or the 2.5 R.s Coupe. If I own one of those cars, I would literally want to widebody it 'cause why not?😂😎
Blob eye owner here and modded to about 300 whp
Plz make an sti video. It's my dream car
I love the WRX but I can't Subscribe unfortunately...
Because I already did!😂
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha 🤣🤣
I subbed u know why , the work with the green screen has improved hugely , keep it up guys
STI video! For the people! 🙏
An hybrid rally car is fun too. There was a hybrid Citroen C4 rally car
I have an 02 wrx that is bone stock with 200,000 on it and I love it
Technically yes in 2014 the recent changes to the WRX/ STi took place, but it was the 2015 year model which was produced in late 2014.
Loved the video, one of your best ones
Thanks!
Make an evo video next
Love my 21 sti
The subaru that really put up to save the company was the 1996 legacy outback.
I wanna see more history on other Brand of Cars, Thank You.
Make an evolution about the Lancer Evo.
I think the true sleeper is the legacys line-up until the 4th generation, in the states you get the spec B, something as close as STI is gonna get but much tamer, WRX young car guy while the legacy is for old car guy, they should bring back the Spec B trim for the current gen legacy XT, and the STI wagon Levorg
WRX type-ra STi and the type-r STi.
Both are very simular but have different attributes.
The type-ra is a raw drivers car as opposed to the very desirable type-r which has more comfort options.
Sti evolution please + i own a 08 Impreza hatch
I love my 15 WRX blue n gold baby!
A great video. I'm waiting for the new STI. I have a 2017 base model WRX. It's going to be hard to get rid of this car. Stay safe brother. 🙏
I want a Rally Blue Hawk Eye in the worst way!
Me too!
I ignore the check engine light because I put it there myself lol. Full turboback exhaust.
The model you've shown is the 22B the rarest of them all... AS for the best 04 to 07 are the best looking ones! Yeah, the mechanical of the new ones are better, they look like shit imo!
Plssss do a video of its rival Mitsubishi EVO.
Favorite Wrx is the Bug Eye it look good in my opinion.
RIP You can get a mint 1st gen WRX STi for £10k-£13k ($14k-$18k) in England
Impreza videos please
22B STI. The halo car you can steer with 2 fingers!
My favorite WRX is a Forester XT 🤟👍.
**Bunta Fujiwara intensifies**
DEJA VU
Lancer evo next
Hawkeye would be my favorite but I bought a '19 STI brand new that came with the type RA's engine without the limited edition price tag so I'm glad I waited and didn't buy one of my dealers 2 type RAs.
I couldn't be happier with that 19 STI though its so fun in the winter, so well rounded overall, and it came with 3 pedals so you actually have to operate the transmission. Whats not to love?
STi video please!
yes
I actualy bought 1 month ago in Portugal the 1st model Impreza, mean eye (gc8), only 94k km (yes km, not miles) although not a WRX, but and Impreza GT AWD, with the engine EJ20, all completely stock which is rare to see for 24.500€, being 26 years and their price going up in value, modifying Its almost a "crime" 😅, anyway, love It, and dont wanna sell it for anything for sure haha.....btw great vid, and ty for the info and curiosities! 😁
Friend got an 05 sti for 9k with 90k miles and daily for months
Ppl hate on new gens but when replacement comes out ppl gonna miss it
Does FIXD ship to Australia ? The sensor alone costs $100 over here !
I'll get shit for this, but... I have a 2015 Imprezza Limited w/CVT (split gate & paddle shifters) and it is fun when I put it into "manual" mode and use the steering wheel paddle shifters. It isn't as fast as WRX/STI, but I still have fun with it. The 2.0l engine has a lot of pep to it for a non-rally type car. So I like my Subaru. And yes, if I could have afforded the WRX or STI I would have done it. But my spouse can't drive a stick, so... But she drives our 2009 Outback Premium wagon (2.5l engine), and I have fun it as well. Basically the Boxer engine is a lot of fun to rev up and rip around with.
I think you mean there are 3 variations of the 2nd gen WRX: the Bug Eye, Blob Eye and the Hawk eye...you mentioned the 1st gen already earlier in you video.
It’ll be great to see a video about the limited edition STi’s like the 22B and the good-bye gen S-series S201, S202, S203...all the way up to S209.
I love y’all’s vids
Amazing brand 💙🔥
this is the firts video i watched after i made my account today... love the videos :)
actually
2.gen is best with some upgrates and safety removes you can have a proper sports car and because it's light
So as a person who fell in love with subarus when they where little I have a little knowdlage on subarus. Stateside subarus are not that great especially the 02-07 ones. The the big eye wasn’t bad bc the EJ205. But the EJ255 and the 257 are not even close to as good as the 207. 255 and 257 suffer from oil starvation, ringland failures way to often. Also no one knows how to take care of a boxer engine at all
Luckily in the UK, STIs aren't that expensive. Somewhere between 5000 to 40000 quid.
Ayyyy get it boyo 🤙🏿🤙🏿
do the sti video
STI video version please.
Hey can you please do a video on the Dodge Charger and the different types please🥺🥺
Can we please get one on the Evo
Good idea!
I got an sti I’d love to hear about them!!
I own a lifted Hawkeye
nice vid bro
One thing subaru wrx is to do is to make it have more power baby
