What the WRX Can Do


Subaru released a new video of the 2015 WRX putting its new set of racecar handling features to good use and leaving clouds of dust in its wake. Tearing around corners and jumping over a few peaks on dirt roads, the 2015 WRX is certainly not the average car.

2015 WRX or 2014 BRZ?




One car blogger has posed an intriguing question: if you had $30,000 to spend on any sports car you wanted, what would you buy? The author says that there are only two sports cars in that price range on the market right now that warrant attention, the 2014 BRZ and 2015 WRX.

But how do you decide between the two? In the end, the author decides he would buy a WRX because of the sheer practicality of the car when compared to the BRZ. The BRZ, he writes, is a more track-sport car but doesn’t meet all his…
