I think you need to get your facts right first before you post if not everyone here will rheem you.

The reason why the US market never got the WRX or the STI is because the market was not ready for it. The WRX or GC8 with the ej20 became aval in 94 in japan. What was the craze here in the US??? It was SUV's. Did you notice how the jdm sports cars phazed out around this time? The rx7, mr2, supra all turbo charged cars were not selling and way overpriced. The US market wanted the SUV. Now the SUV craze has gone down thanks to other companies who pushed the ideas of have a 4 door sedan sports car ala Nissan Maxima. If you think the WRC is what brought the WRX to the US then I think you should reconsider that. Subaru has just been waiting to bring this car over since the the Legacy sold pretty well. Now I won't disqualify the 2.5rs either, it sparked the interest overall in the terms of performance. Did you ever catch the sports compact car issues of their project 2.5rs? That was the car Shiv was building and proving that the car can perform. It also showed how much the US market envy's the JDM WRX and how we would try to copy what the WRX had even though we were stuck with a high compression 2.5L motor minus the turbo(it was the baseline motor used in the Forest/Legacey).

All in all we've still come a little short of what the rest of the world has but it's getting there. We got a 227hp USDM WRX, in japan they have a 271hp.


And yeah Hondas kick ***!

im sorry i dont agree with you
the wrx commercials are played on speed chanel when there is rally car racing and they talk about rally car inspired suspension and the best selling cars are not suvs but trucks the f150 and chevrolet (Cheap Heap Every Valve Rattles Or Leaks Every Time) siverado i think it is doing good cuz it is a fast car at a good price and is an alternative to the hondas that are like butt holes everyone has one. did you know about rally car racing b4 you bought it? how many other people knew about the rally car aspect b4 they bought it? i would guess most. ill admit rally car cant touch nascar when it comes to popularity on tv, but people know. how could this car not do good here it is compared to the s4 and beverian motor works 3 series in performance it would take some crappy corporate doings

Your basing this off the commercials?
And I said the reason for the turbo charged japanese sports cars phazed out was because of the SUV craze...Learn how to read post. I also said the market is ready for the 4 door sports car...read my post.

Your asking me if I knew anything about rally cars??? Why don't you come down to 1 of the meets I put together so I can show you how much I don't know about Subarus.

If you think your car has a rally inspired suspension like what the commercial says then I guess the Mitsubishi Lancer OZ owns us since its just "rally inspired."
Try jumping your car? Try taking it off-road. You have no idea how many runs I did with my friend Mark(goku006) off-road. You also have no idea how many times I had to fix his car when $hit happens.
I'd say you have a lot to learn still.

i was being sarcastic about not knowing anything about rally cars im saying that alot of people know about rally racing

and why are you getting all mad and when is a meet ill go and i think that the rice rocket faze burned out like every other craze dies out just like the staion wagon and the minivan and the suv will die out

and the impreza is a rally car so is the lancer is too, not in the state that they are sold to the public unless you go to prodive with alot of money. the unibody is the same one they use.

People like you are a perfect examples of why new subaru owners are considered morons. You think because you bought(or mommy and daddy bought) an impreza WRX you think your hot $hit, and you know everything about these cars and its history.

Why don't you go to these boards instead:

www.clubsi.com
www.honda-tech.com
www.SigmaPiIsA****ingN00b.com

Or you can check out some sights in japan about impreza's...
