I can't imagine anyone in their right mind buying a new WRX to use for any kind of performance driving, or even buying it thinking it's a performance vehicle period. It's dated. The powertrain is bad, feels like it has tons of power, but it doesn't, it falls on it's face so hard. It's pretty heavy, heavier than it should be. It's the king of understeer. Bad on gas.
The WRX is the car where people ask why didn't you just get the STi if you actually wanted to
drive it.
And yes, wheel arch cladding (or whatever you want to call that god awful looking black plastic) has no place on a car that's supposed to be "performance" oriented. Just make it a crossover already.
Either go buy an STi or BRZ, or something from another brand.
