I see what you are saying. I liked the '13. I was wondering if somehow the '17 was geared differently. My main car, the WRX isn't exactly a muscle car though!

My local dealer just got in a new yellow series. I got to test drive it with zero miles. Took it like a half mile and turned around since I didn't love it. Anyone think the new one is different?!?...

My friend has the RC300. I don't like it at all. Inside is cramped and the gas mileage is poor and it takes premium. I'm not a big person either (5'5" about 118 lbs). And the other issue- you can't...

I have blizzaks on my WRX and the one noticeable difference is how much louder they are than the stock tires. It hasn't snowed here yet.

2) I miss the old wheels
3) I like the...

I went with a WRX, daily driver. Got a C7 Z51 3LT for the weekend. If the BRZ didn't exist, I would get another WRX for our other DD.
