well as far as my humble opinion goes i agree with what has been posted previously , all the imprezas are good at what they do to an extent , but my favourite (since the first day i clapped eyes on one , is the 22b although i cant afford one so bought a type r ) and as far as i am concerned it is as good as i thought and imagined and (as sad as it sounds ) spends a lot of time looking at , and washing it.
but i must also point out , i believe a lot of owners find the sound and handling of one the most addictive things otherwise they would buy the likes of evos skylines etc as lets face it they aint the most reliable
but we love em .
or at least i do
