    You lost me at no wrx has looked good. This is the generation wrx that actually got me interested in the wrx. I saw it one day on the road and I loved it so much and it caught my eye. It's very striking I think and sporty. So I disagree with you on that, I think a lot of people like this generation.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Totally cool to disagree with me but the fact remains that Subarus, in general, aren't the flashiest looking vehicles out there, but that's part of their charm.

      @WorthyShotThat 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      CarBuzz - Unboxing Everyday Cars and Supercars if none of the generations have been good looking then the WRX and STI would have stopped manufacturing a long ass time ago lol. That's a dumb comment. You can't tell me people just buy subie a for their performance. They buy them for their looks and performance

      Sean Carney literitally, in my opinion one of the best looking cars.

      @Code325 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You do yourself a disservice as a journalist by mislabeling your opinion as a "fact". Even if you feel certain about your opinion, it's still not a fact. Also, it's a "boost gauge", not a "gauge boost"...

    This model WRX looks good and the CVT is a great daily.

  • @dannyb8209

    I think it is quite good looking but then again beauty is in the eye of the beholder

  • @DeFazioNJ
    @DeFazioNJ 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Good video, but glossing over the fact that this car is available with a CVT really only serves to feed petulant trolls who probably won't ever own this car anyway, assuming the average person that hurls insults over other peoples' transmission preferences is even old enough to drive...

  • @vmaund33
    @vmaund33 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I love how smooth CVT's are would be interested in driving one. manual can get annoying as a dd after a while..

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      CVTs have definitely come a long way over the past few years, but I still experience some rubber banding, which I find insanely annoying. I think the WRX (and STI) are best suited for a manual, at least for now.

    • @vmaund33
      @vmaund33 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I'd definitely get the manual if I got it. I keep hearing 2018 is gonna have some substantial changes done to it so I wanna wait but at the same time I can't lol

  • @2012WrxSti
    @2012WrxSti 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    what would you expect for a car thats under 40k? they focused more on the performance not so much on the interior, u want a quality interior with the same performance, that would puts you to like audi or bmw that cost 50-60k with the same performance

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not that the interior lacks quality, but that it's plain vanilla styling.

  • @nigeldaddyo
    @nigeldaddyo 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's not ugly, and it's not gorgeous. let's just say it's polarizing...and that's what i like about it. some of the best music and art is polarizing and that's what gets people talking and i'd say that to be true for cars as well.

  • @mikescott6097
    @mikescott6097 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hate it when punks say "only buy a manual". I get it, this car is more fun with a manual. But that may account for 10% of the time you drive it. For most this is a daily driver and having the convenience and practicality of a cvt can make this car more of a balance bewteen fun and commuter. Don't knock someone down because of some ignorant notion that they're getting an inferior car. We all have different needs and wants in a vehicle.

  • @paulverstraete9157
    @paulverstraete9157 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    • @carbuzzcom

      Yeah, that's definitely a driving experience.

  • @26point2madness
    @26point2madness 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice in-depth review. So when you drove the 2017 CVT version, what did you not like about it? I have a Golf TDI that I am getting rid off, and am looking at the the WRX, but the wife will not allow a manual, so it would be the CVT or nothing. In this case, would you just suggest something else, and not even consider the CVT?

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! The CVT, simply put, deprives this car of its soul. Instead, I'd suggest a Golf or Golf GTI with the dual-clutch option. Great cars!

    • @26point2madness
      @26point2madness 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I really like the DSG transmission. I have it on my Golf TDI. Just not sure if I am willing to give VW another chance after the diesel debacle.

  • @iliftbro413
    @iliftbro413 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    this dude is being way to picky for a car thats base is 27K. Yea i get it the one here is almost 38K, but dude it's a Subaru....you have too much expectations. And like someone said, once you said no wrx has looked good you lost all your credibility for reviewing cars

  • @BrainDamageBrian

    I'm pretty happy with my 2015 WRX so far. I have this wonderful rattle that began around a month ago in upper front passenger ceiling area. I HATE the cup holders in center console. If you place a coffee mug in there it doesn't have the rubber to hold the mug in place therefore when you have a full mug or water you must hold it while going over some rough terrain or face spillage.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      You should send that comment to Subaru.

  • @PittiesAndMore
    @PittiesAndMore 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The competition for the WRX is not the Golf R and Focus RS. The competition is the GTI and the Focus ST. WRB is a nice color but just about everyone has it that's why I bought the pure red. As for looks, the GTI and the Golf R looks boring and as plain as can be! I think the WRX looks good especially after a few mods. Look at mine: instagram.com/pitties_a_wrx_and_more/

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, we also mentioned the Focus ST and GTI. And your car looks awesome!

  • @MetalsForBrunch
    @MetalsForBrunch 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    This model is 30kplus tax tested. The current manual transmission is a slush sandbox in the wrx but the wrx sti comes with a higher quality manual transmission.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, that's true.

    • @waynes.2983
      @waynes.2983 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      MetalsForBrunch you are kidding right? The manual feels great. Notchy at first but once broken in it is smooth as silk with positive feel.

    • @PittiesAndMore
      @PittiesAndMore 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +MetalsForBrunch The manual transmission is great and coming from a Mustang, a Camaro, and a BMW owner.

  • @-ruckus-
    @-ruckus- 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, I gotta agree with you on your comment. Lost me at it doesn't look good. I like the wrx body style 2017 and older. Not real fond of the newer ones. I just traded for a 2017 and I love it. Way this guy keeps dogging a car he claims he loves sounds like he needs to buy a grandma Lexus that's fully loaded and more tame. These cars were not designed to be all glitter and glammer. It's a sports car disguised as a 4 door sedan, as per insurance looks at it which keeps premiums down a little. This goes with all cars tho. You either like the car or don't.

  • @chocOneOOne
    @chocOneOOne 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a WRX (16') and personally I'd say the RS and the R are at least a step above the WRX and should be compared more to the STI. While the STI is good, it isn't quite as refined as those two but should be getting a refresh for 2018 and I'm curious what they bring.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I doubt the STI will ever be all that refined; in a way its somewhat lack of refinement contributes to its rally soul. Just my two cents.

    • @chocOneOOne
      @chocOneOOne 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is true, maybe that wasn't the right wording, but I still feel it's more in the same class and wonder what the new one will bring to the table.

    @ohplezz 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nobody buys a WRX for the appearance of the interior. The Focus RS or Golf R are 40k+ cars. They are not direct competition for the WRX. And who the hell wants a lame station wagon? WTF ? You want a wagon to take your kids to day care???? You don't buy this car for looks or to take your kids to day care. You buy a WRX for performance, value and superb resale value.

    • @carbuzzcom

    • @mortengranau5353
      @mortengranau5353 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is absolutely not even close to that. When the engine is heating up it sits between 1500-2000rpm and once heated, it drops to 500-750rpm. This reviewer is a complete joke who has obviously done no actual research into these cars. I'd know, I previously owned a 2004 WRX and now I own a 2016 WRX. He states his opinion as fact (All Subies are ugly) which immediately lost me and loses him credibility as a reviewer. The fact that he compared the WRX to a an RS Focus and a Golf R further shows that he has done no research. It's direct competitors would be the Golf GTi and Focus ST. The STi competes against the RS and R, not a rexy. What more can I say other than "gauge boost".

    While I think they look nice, there is more work to be done. I would like it to be a bit more of a widebody kind of look with more pronounced body lines and curves and also throw on the STI spoiler or make WRXs have their own unique spoiler and it would be GORGEOUS! Just my opinion. Also the CVT WRX is great as a daily for someone who has high traffic areas or a spouse who doesnt drive stick. Dont shit on it out of the gate without considering the market it is filling or without at least stating why you think its not good. Just some food for thought. Either way still solid content 💪

    $37k for a WRX is literally crazy. Subaru has got to be losing their mind to charge that much for something without an STI badge on it. Nevermind the fact that the interior still looks like it's 10 years old.

      Gregory Lopes what other cars can you get with the same power with 4 seats ?

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, you bring up a good point there. It is a bit pricey for what it is (and isn't).

    • @waynes.2983
      @waynes.2983 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gregory Lopes they don't cost $37k. I paid $26,578 out the door for my base model. You are mistaken or somebody is ripping people off.

    • @GregLopes
      @GregLopes 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wayne Wildman yes, you purchased a base model. This video is not a base model. A fully loaded limited with leather seats, sunroof, Harmon Kardon stereo system, etc, is listing for around $37k. Go ahead and go on the Subaru website and build a WRX with literally everything on it and you will realize that I am correct.

      @PittiesAndMore 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Gregory Lopes You can get a Limited starting around $30K MSRP. I know cause I bought one. No, the interior doesn't looks like it's 10 years old. And, most people buy this car for 4-doors and the performance. I could have bought a GTI with its nicer interior but I went for the performance instead.

  • @joek1117
    @joek1117 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a sport car? I thought that this was one of the safest cars on the planet! Commercials really lie sometimes, and I thought that this was going to be the first car I was going to get because it was described the safest. But did you really mean that this is a sport car? I have no idea what a sport car is but I do know that sport cars are used for racing and showing off. Wait, is it used for showing off how it looks? I know this is a very long sentence/paragraph but I just was very curious and just wanted to get out there. So please, answer me. Also I noticed that you said that it was slightly not good looking so showing off is off the list but, at least it's good looking for me and also, you have a very great voice.

      Poor promoting of a great car they should be ashamed hope someone at capitol Subaru - dgdg.com understands this. This is an "unboxing" correct with that being said it should be all the things that make his car great not one persons (uneducated on the car at that) opinions of said car ? Potential consumers might turn to this as something to sway them to purchase or not so someone saying avoid the cvt is beyond foolish and saying the car is basically ugly is terrible really come on thank god i didn't watch this before i bought my wrx

    I just watched a video that shows the 2017 impreza looks way different and has a hatchback. Maybe i'm just sounding dumb here, but i can swear the car looked way better and came with a hatchback version of this car. Now its just the regular version of the impreza and not the WRX (which could mean its different) but the regular version actually looks great and i wanted to buy one. That makes me think this is the 2016 and not the new 2017 which got a face lift. Here is a link to show you what i mean. th-cam.com/video/FOap1lkwtAk/w-d-xo.html
    If im wrong then let me know here lol. Because i'm very interested in this car as well with the 2017 Kia Optima SXL, and the fully loaded TOYOTA camry V6 version of the car.

    • @Papa_WooWoo
      @Papa_WooWoo 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm guessing its just a lot different because this is the impreza and the other one is not. Kind of sucks because they're almost different cars and the regular impreza looks a little better especially the inside and the color of the speedometer is blue and not red which i prefer.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Right, that video is for the base Impreza - not the WRX. Furthermore, it's for the redesigned 2017 Impreza. The next-generation WRX and WRX STI are at least a year or so away.

  • @TomesEsq

    I'm obviously biased, but my GTI makes the WRX look like shit. While I don't have AWD, the mechanical limited-slip differential does almost all the things I'd want an AWD system to do. Also, the interior is absolute shit on the WRX, the paint quality is TERRIBLE, and they rattle like crazy. It's a fun car, but it's more for fanboys more than real drivers.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      You're not biased. The WRX is not a looker.

    • @DANGERBOTTLE
      @DANGERBOTTLE 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      I am biased too, but my WRX looks better. While I do have AWD, it does everything a FWD can't do which is most everything. My top speed is not governed I can turn off my traction control fully, better reliability higher resale value. The paint is not as good as your GTI I must say, no rattles yet though. Not a fan boy just a car guy, Mk7 GTI are very nice cars enjoy your purchase because I am enjoying mine.
