Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #5114 15 posts Started by Ghost
I'm in the market for a new car, and the only one that has particularly caught my eye as to not be embarrassing to drive is a 2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS. What is everyone's opinions on this car?
its not a toyota >rolleyes.gif>

I dislike the idea of driving a SUBARU. The name just sounds absurdly retarded for starts. I personally would rather spend the money on a 99-02 accord. Or an S-2k. Or a 7gc GTS. I would never drive a Subara Impreza. Lame. Sorry dude, just letting you know my .02.

i am awesome
dunno what exactly your looking for, car with AWD?, 4 doors?, used IS 300, matrix,mazda speed protoge?,sentra SER?... just some suggestions for alternatives, I think the impreza is an ok car though.
I heard the transmission and.. well the differentials.. are very weak and that they die on you all the time!

POssibly because people drive the car as if they were in the WRC.. but..still be weary.. it'll cost you more to maintain than the celi.
Get a Celica... mod it... and spank an impreza. I did!

I like them. They are stylish and powerful. I was recently the designated driver for my dad and his friends in key west and while waiting in the lot there was a blue impreza just sittin there. So i studied every inch of it, because hey, i had to waste another couple hours and i was surrounded by transvestites. And that baby was so stylish, every inch of it was sexy. But i may be impartial because I an a huge fan of the WRX STI.
Good Luck.
SUBARU???Man get a life! i`m an EX owner of a WRX JDM,after 3 months i start hearing SOUNDS!!!From inside the engine!!WOW;)The cars are not reliable,trust me get something else,not a Subaru or go to a casino and gamble >wink.gif> you have more chances there!!!! >tongue.gif>
if you were gonna get a 2.5RS
don';t get a 2001
it'll just make you sad you didn't get the WRX
get a 98-00
the 2-door style would be ever more BA >tongue.gif>
plus...I personally think it looks better
Wow, no love from the toyota community. *drops the impreza idea*.

I've decided to go look into a truck instead..

lol man, just remember everyone here is biased. Go take one for a ride and if YOU like it, then get it! Your gonna be drivin it man, not us.
I actually like the 98-00 2.5RS 2 doors....they look very nice with a kit, and have differentials up the wazoo along with AWD for lots and lots of traction, grip, and acceleration.....personally i like them, theyre pretty unique and look really nice fixed up. And of the subarus ive seen or driven, i wouldnt mind owning one. Go ahead and get one if you want it, its your choice....i dont think theyre bad cars.
