2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS Sedan

Pros

Fun to drive, decent speed, Cant get AWD for a better price, redesigned interior looks good

Cons

stereo doesn't sound so good

This car is an absolute blast to drive. For under $20,000 (only $189/month to lease), the impreza RS cannot be beat. The acceleration is alright (better than most, if not all other entry level sedans), and the handling/cornering is amazing. I also was trampling over everything in my path after we got a foot of snow the other day, while everyone else i know with front or rear wheel drive cars was getting stuck.
While it doesn't have the power of the wrx or the sti, it does have just enough juice to keep you entertained. I look forward to driving this car every day.
I bought the metallic grey with the black interior. The color combo is nice and the spoiler makes it basically look like the wrx (minus the hood scoop obviously). Overall, great performance and looks, im very happy with the car.
