I bought my 2012 WRX today and I shit you not not even 20 minutes of owning it, a 2017 and a 2004 passed by me and honked/waved. The community gives you love. 💙
love, thats what makes a subaru a subaru
@@nursinghomefan Jeeps do thay
Vw GTI owners do the same thing I love it
im jealous that im only 15 years old and cant have my dream car ut i know that im gonna save up money and get it one day
Is that your first car? Just asking...
Fun fact: Subaru Rally Blue and gold came from their original sponsors, State Express 555, aka cigarettes, aka nicotine, aka vape, aka the stereotype just means they're being true to their roots.
@Joseph Bird *raises hand*
Lol I wanted one before I started smoking and before I knew about all that... now I Vape and got one a year ago... fuck smh 🤦♂️ just fitting the sterotypes lol 😂
Marlboro in F1 racing? So sad that idiots when stupid until itngot banned
The random subaru wrx wave with other wrx drivers are the best.
One of the best parts.. Haha.
It's not as prevalent anymore :(
its a subiewave bro, not just for WRXs, hoodscoop=subiewave
It’s not a wave it’s a peace sign ✌️
@@jennifferrivera5052 it's called a subie wave...
So you want to have a nicotine addiction
Edit: Fitment Industry do y’all not like the joke?
Lmao

Jon Gil sane thing but in vape form

Yes. You're not wrong.
I do want a WRX.
I love the sound.
I love the AWD.

I do have a hatred for evos.

Yeeaah mayn
Chunkee Cheez sorry man
The world needs back markers so I get the choice you made you dont have to be on top as long as you like your car everything is good.
AWD is like laxatives
It's helps you go but doesn't help you stop
Good thing we have brakes right?
Double clutch downshift. Awd definitely slows you down faster. 2,3,4 diffs. Def slows you down faster
It does if you have a two way lsd
I should probably say that this saying holds best in the snow
In Wisconsin, winter reveals where the smart people are...they're the ones in Subaru's with snow tires. And the dumb people are the ones asking "Why do you have snow tires when you have AWD?"
This guy sounds exactly like Linus tech tips lol
btv I sAiD tHaT
Whaaaaaa-
*brain explodes
Holy fuck
Linus Car Tips
For real lol! When he first walked on camera without his face in frame I thought to myself "Wait.. Linus has a car channel too? 🤔"
I own a Forester. It's been down for a year. They say admitting is the first step to recovery
I horse beat the shit out of my 5 speed xt and never had an issue at 150k
I drive a alfa 156 V6. Since i got that thing it didnt stop having problems. I wonder if the things they say about alfas will be actually true ? My dad had 2 alfas and didnt have problems with them at all. Maybe he didnt have since he had money i dont :D
oof
What happened?
@@stubaru4896 Headgasket went at 170,000 and I got carried away and rebuilt the engine. With ARP headstuds too
Leave them stock and for the most part you won't have any issues. Start modifying the car without doing internals and you will have issues.
My stock sti popped twice. 2005. The engine will blow sooner or later.
the problem is the young kids beating on them before the engine is even warm or driving them hard then shutting off straight away :') then cry that it's a crap engine. or they're slapping on any bolt on they can afford with out a tune and wondering why they afr is leaning out ahaha.
FBO E85 and i’m doing great :) 365whp 340tq it’s that shitty old ej motor and it’s all in your tuner. and taking care of the car lol
Driver mod first and foremost. Plenty of FBO cars 500+awhp with zero issues. Maintenance is key, don't add a burble tune and two step then constantly stay against the limiter most are fine.
Or do research and you won’t have issues and still modify
As long as you take care of a car you won’t have head gasket issues, or many issues for that matter. Subaru’s are the sort of cars that like to be driven semi-hard, as long as you are not flogging them every day it’s fine. My car literally drives like a new car after recently having a service and it had its timing belt replaced. It’s at 160,000miles/200,000km and runs fine.
My STI's on its 3rd engine now. This time I'm not going stock. (I picked it up with its 2nd engine, which died shortly after.)
"The insurance loves them, because they're just a Subaru." HA. I wish. I pay more a month for my insurance than I do my actual car payment. Otherwise, I love my WRX!
@ImaCoward124 how old are you?
My insurance doesn’t love my wrx because it’s a Subaru, they love it because I’m dumb enough to pay more for insurance than I do on my car payment
I have a 2016 sti, I pay $375/month but I'm also 19 and live in Ontario Canada, which has one of the highest insurance rates in the country
Mines 250 lol who do you have that it's so cheap?
@Tyler W I'm about to turn 16 and gonna buy wrx how much do you think bill be paying
Amadeus Charlez for you probably $450.
What year you planning to get?
I'm 27 and I pay $155/mo for my '17 WRX I used to pay 100 for my V6 Charger so I was actually pretty relieved since google told me to expect 250.
So you lost to an EVO 9?
Tr3vor LMAO
shiet mane... big faccs
They lost? lol you mean Evo lost to Sti that’s why they stop the production of Evo haha
It’s a joKe
UncrownKing now lets think about this who really won?( don't take this too seriously) technically Subaru loses due to the authenticity of the evo and it's rarity🤔
@@evoryderz rarity? because mitsu couldn't sell them like subaru could sell the wrx? .... ooohhh, so the demand wasn't there, okay, now i get it.
For me, the further back in the WRX/STi lineage you go, the better they look. I love the bug-eye and the the old Impreza 2.5RS with an STi motor swap is definitely a dream car.
my 97 obs thinks your awesome, and appreciates the compliment.....
My bugeye sti swap also loves you back !
You sir are correct in your opinion
how good are the bugeyes!!! got one myself that im doing a series on and tbh, the months leading up to me getting one i wasn't sure on the look... but everytime i saw one on the street it really started to grow on me.. then pretty much the moment i was off my restricted license i got one :')
You spelled gc8 sti wrong
Could you guys do “So you want a rotary”at some point?
Its on the way stay tuned!
@@FitmentIndustries tee hee
stay "tuned"
Fitment Industries oh we will🙃

“So you want an unreliable engine”
Sitting in my wrx *hits vape* ooo they made a subie video *click* *hits vape* oh damn the intro got me 😂
glad i can own a wrx without falling into the stereotypes ahaha. never vaped. owned for a year and still no cobb or invidia or new head gasket needed :') also love evos, want to own one one day and my dream sti is actually the 09 hatch.. currently own/building a bugeye wagon and love the practicality it has to offer.
I know. I don't fit into the stereotypes either 😊 lol. And I have a hatch WRX but want a bugeye 😂 lmao. Also love Evo's and would love to have one. Let's be best friends?
Im assuming yours in the one in your background photo?? so you have the one that I want... I have I have the one you want ahahaha. Sounds good :')
Absolutely the coolest, quickest, most informative video about the car that I have ever seen. To be more accurate,to be such a short video, it is easily the most informative and entertaining video about the Subaru. Congrats!
I drive an 18 WRX. I have a rear sway bar, a front strut bar, a Cobb, Method wheels, a short shifter, shifter gates, a shift knob, and a muffler delete. The FA20DIT is a great platform as long as you're not shooting for more than 400 WHP. After that it makes more sense to go with an STI, if you're dead set on Subaru. I was dyno'd at 257 WHP and 296 WTQ which I'm very happy with. I like how the car handles mostly anyways. It's great going to the backroads and absolutely clapping my buddies who drive higher power RWD cars. Only guy able to keep up with me on the backroads is my buddy who drives a modded SW20.
Well see where things are after MoTeC. Im already seeing more 400+ FA20s now. still not gonna hold my breath tho
I had a STI 2015 with 400/400 on E85 and had no engine issues for the enite time I had it for 25k miles. True, the rods and rings are weak but the engines tuned right and maintained are far from glass.
Okay I would like to say that you don’t have to replace your headgaskets if you simply drive the car right and don’t beat the shit out of it😂 my brother drive one for 5 years, did an oil change ever 3k miles, and kept up on other proper maintenance, never did he once blow a headgasket, and yes he still had plenty of fun with it lol
As an owner of a 2012 STI hatch, I approve of this message.
The next one should be "So You Want A Nissan Z" episode!
I owned one the "z" scene is full of idiots, anime lovers an just about anyone that can shell out 7k for a salvaged sport car with a usually screwed up 3rd gear sold it an got a corvette an am much happier with the scene
Oceanic Dangernoodle what do you drive
I've had my WRX for 16 years now. So far, all I replaced were the clutch and the spark plugs. That's it. It's the most reliable car I've ever had.
Battery? I already had to replace my 2015's battery twice.
Bought a wrx 2 years ago and modded it quite a bit, I’m over it. Decided to have a track car and a daily.
Never vaped.
Paid actor
Jediael damn... how’s you know?
98% of those stereotypes started with the '15+ cars.
I knew that I should have kept my '08 STI.
Zapablast05 why is that so
TheFancyLlama the FA engine
I used to want a wrx till I saw the price people sell clapped out ones for.. the good ol Subaru tax. Instead I built my 3rd gen legacy with a hybrid 255/251 motor fabbed my own piping slapped a td04 on it did some fueling upgrades and on low boost make the same power as an 02-07 wrx for literally just under half the price of an abused used wrx. Totally worth it.
Chris Santos hell yeah. I’m currently building a 22/251 for boost right now
@@dpmedia7550 nice man! Join the na/t Subaru Facebook page if you haven't yet!
Chris Santos but there's not much more head room for power or aftermarket support.
@@CXANGLING speedyefi makes full standalone ECU's for subarus so I'm not quite limited power wise since I can run any size injectors and what not. But you are correct about there not being much aftermarket exterior modifications. Theres like one guy in Russia making body kits. The rest of the stuff is just trying to get better looking jdm parts lol.
constant waves, surprisingly helpful community, enthusiast group discounts thru dealerships.....subaru formed a cult. i love my subaru and i think ill only own em.
Did he just say under 10 thousand dollars? Where can you buy a wrx for 10 thousand?
I bought my used WRX for 8k (a 2004 with 95k miles, bought it in 2018)
Many places
Rust belt and flood states.
@@NazbolCaliphDonaldaddeenTrump 95K would be the reasoning here
got mine with a vf52 swap and 73k og miles for 8k out the door.
Bought a Subaru and within a month I became a pod-a-day type of guy😪
Here rewatching all the so you wants and a wrx is definitely on my list of cars that I would buy. I prefer two doors but I need a four door due to family purposes. When I do eventually get a car one of these will definitely be a consideration. Can be made to look good and still be a daily
This is everything you need to know. To get up to speed, on the subaru WRX.
Thurs BMX I was thinking the same thing.
Already got one. S202 , #267.
So much better than my US WRX of the same year with spongy brakes and over-boosted steering.
"You can find another wrx owner to the Walmart parking lot" bruh I wish I could find ANY car enthusiast around me really
Priest Seiryu Which state you live at?
Bro in my town me and my friends used to make fun of the cool cool car club cause they'd sit all night in the parking lots showing off their cars . Come to MD or PA tons of enthusiasm here
my town has a red wrx, a blue sti, and me with the orange/red impreza GT (same as a wrx just last years motor)
i even have a photo of me in the walmart parking lot parked with the blue sti and a old outback in between us
"you took our child away and made it fat and boring!" best line ever.
I live in Central Arkansas and we have a very lacking car scene outside of muscle cars. A WRX around here had always been hard to find... Until 2015. Now the new ones are absolutely everywhere
I just picked up a 2012 WRX hatch and so far no issues
I'm about to buy one, what you think of it 10 months later?
When I drove my Malibu I always got the feeling of being pulled due to FWD especially in an incline road but AWD makes you feel like you are floating. God Bless Subarus
Literally me I drive a Malibu test drove a wrx fell in love getting one next year after my trade in
Where i live there are actualy 2 wrx owners one has a black one with pink calipers and the other is blue with gold wheels. And for any Celica gt4 fans one also lives close by. Its quite fun walking my dog i can tell ya that.
I try not to make eye contact with the SUBIE guys and the VW guys. They might steal my soul.
Nad3 i will steal ur soul
Did someone say GTI?
I've had a '16 WRX for 3 years now, I love it.
Does it drift well in the winter?
@@lk6912 I rarely get snow in the south but the few times I have driven it in the snow it was a blast.
I Had a 16 WRX and traded it for my s2000. Best choice I’ve ever made.
Angel68iou1 do you ever miss having a backseat?
Nina Pagonakis nah, I had to adapt to not having a lot of stuff in my car lol
It's all about maintenance on Subaru's. I've got an 02 wrx wagon, bone stock drivetrain (other than the JDM STI 3 puck stage 2 clutch). Just changed the OG clutch, from 2002, at 240k! Trans is solid, motor has zero issues, burns minimal oil, and trust me, I beat the crap out of it. Fully synthetic every 3k and you'll be good as long as you arent launching it and you can drive. Currently at 247k, still truckin'!
Maintenance = KEY 🙏🏼
"Life is too short to stay stock."
I like this, baby
Do a “So you want to own a Focus ST” and have a Dakota do it!
Garrett Stocker i got an ST and wish i did more research on it before i bought it. Still love driving the hell out of it, bought new in 17’ and already have 54k miles on it. Lol
Garrett Stocker so you wanna own a bmw
Maxwell *Personal Account* definitely not!
Jesse Budelman I have a 2017 ST as well and I love it!
Garrett Stocker I was saying that should be one of the ones
The bugeyes are the best looking year. I will die on a hill for this.
yep, agree - love the bugeyes for the nose, scoop and damn sexy box flares. But still really enjoy my '18...
Braaaaaaaahhhh they fuckin grotty
I love them all equally, but the bugeye is the model that made me fall in love with the car.
I own a '02 WRX hatch that I bought new. This will be the kiss of death , 204K miles. Not real issues with the car the first 10 years after that I've spent some $$. For me it's the price of admission for owning a car that's '17 years old. I would buy another one today if I could ($24K). Still enjoy the car every time I sit in the seat.
On my fourth WRX. I have an 18 & 19 in the driveway. I’m in love with them.
Subaru owners: *doing nothing*
EVO BRO: BOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLTTTTTTT ONNNNSSSSSSSSSS
If ur gonna get a WRX get a 2011-2014
Last of the real tuner engine the EJ series
I have a wrx 2013 and I always love the curves it has
"Somewhat reliable"😂😂 Thanks for keeping it real!
I bought my 05 STI off a friend for about 11k. It's been a really fun car. Modifications are definitely endless. BUT I do not like most other Subaru enthusiasts. Very similar to the 16 year old Honda boys. But all in all good car for a first "project" kind of car.
I own a 16 WRX STI, and everything you said it’s true. It’s hard to admit it but it’s true. Oh! Almost forgot... the world is flat ; )
Never vaped though...
Every thing? So the wrx does have a head gasket problem? Or did i misunderstand?
Fake the Subaru is a paid actor
Im guilty of the rally armor mudflaps.
@@ypahub01 The 2015+ WRX (non-STI) has a new engine.
Won me over with the start guys....if you like blue and yellow and own a pair of Oakleys......literally me and I still can't stop laughing at it....
I actually have a profound interest in this car, and decided to check out that leak issue.
Apparently in modern Subaru's, the problem is pretty much a rarity, and unlikely to happen.
Big relief they managed to pretty much work that kink out. I can't afford the $1000+ repair bill, lmao
2016 Wrx owner here.I love it .
"You find a Subaru enthusiast everywhere! And that's saying something"
Oh god there spreading!
They're
Please forgive me.
I got into a 2013 WRX Hatch from an S2000 last year. The WRX drives great and has a ton of power. But the shifter is sloppy and interior feels/sounds cheap (common criticism from what I've read). I've driven older (1992 with 300k miles) civics that feel better put together from an interior stand point. Subaru spend their load on the drivetrain/suspension. Since those gripes are minimal I'm happy with the car and recommend it.
My mom bought a WRX the first year they came to North America but sold it when I was about four. I never forgot that car, it was the last cool vehicle my mom ever owned and I'm hoping I can get my hands on one someday.
Your History in regards to Subaru's Rally program that birthed the WRX is woeful
damn. the timing of this is insane, thank you!!!
Bugeye looks way better than the Hawkeye IM WILLING TO THROW HANDS BOI
BET! 😂
Agreed.
😤 no cap
DelinquentDJ I have a bugeye and I don’t vape!
Yes
Bought mine with 50% of mods at 4:35. Added other 50% within a week.
i've had a stock 08 STI for two years now and i absolutely adore it!
it's practical, comfortable on road trips, and pretty quick.
i also own an s2000.
cant say which i prefer but the subi grips like a champ!
BRZ be like ayyy I’m here you know
The myth I heard about WRX eco side was that you could drive one through a city area during heavy traffic and the the exhaust gases would be less polluted then the air it was running in. I have no idea where I heard this but to the younger impressionable me it always sounded kinda cool. Now that I think about it, it may have been a Top gear episode?
and here I am getting 18 mpg with 93 octane fuel... It costs me about $2.50 every 30 mins to drive.
My grandpa 02 Subaru Impreza's been handed down to me 3 years ago. Since then, I put in a 5 speed manual gearbox, a WRX 2l engine, a straight piped 3' exhaust, decent tires and coilovers. It's been a fun ride :D I beat a 2015 WRX on a straight line and "held" a type R, which isn't really close to my power range lol
I love my 2014 hatchback, and I also love to see in the comments below about all the WRX drivers waving. East coast here (Delaware) and it is absolutely true here!
Anyone that wants the boosted boxer motor but doesn't wanna pay terrible insurance prices should check out a 4th gen legacy GT. It's basically a luxury WRX, but cheaper to insure and often cheaper to purchase.
Or the forester xt, or the outback xt, or even the Baja turbo
@@maxwell5428 Yeah, the Forester XTs are really great if you can get a decent price on them - they're pretty popular with enthusiasts so you have to make sure to look for a deal.
What's everyone talking about "high insurance" prices. My 2018 cost less than $80 a month for full coverage, and a $100 deductible.
@@brich8608 How old are you? It's supposed to drop drastically after you're 25, that might be the case.
@@someguy6857 old as fuck!!! Yeah, I'm definitely older than 25.
This is TOTALLY the type of person that would drive a subaru minus the vape.
Bought my 2018 wrx a month ago and the first time I took it out I ran into a blob eye same color and he waved. It’s been great ever since.
for anyone actually worried about headgaskets, it's only an issue on NA 2.5. take care of your car, you'll be fine
Idk about anywhere else, but in Florida everyone’s first mod for a WRX is an axle back/muffler delete😂😂
That was my first mod when I got mine in December haha
From NJ btw
The wex is one of the best platforms you can work with but when I bought my 2017 wrx I had to get the head gaskets replaced 2 months after getting since then I haven't had a problem it all depends on how much boost you want to push out of it for me 20 is about the limit
I like them and I love seeing modded wrx’s. Only reason I didn’t get one was because I stepped into the dealer and the sales people didn’t bat an eye. Went across the street and got a 18’ civic Si coupe and drove it over afterwards :b the look on their face was priceless.
Yeah I had jeans and a T-shirt but I was there to buy a Subaru, not a Lamborghini. And my Si has no issues and can keep up to modded wrx’s and even beat most. Still want an Sti someday
This video came out a week before buying my wrx, this video really helped to acknowledge the stereotypes😂
Bro same ! I’m looking into getting one too this month , although I know nothing about cars , I hope this can give me a lot of knowledge about cars
So I have a WRX and a Forester.... sup fellow subie bro's.

exahust, intake, and a catch can or an AOS is all you need. Anything after don't push it unless you have the the money to build up the motor.
Back in '06 I was shopping for a new car. Like many car folks my age who were raised in a different time, I'm 55yo, I looked at German offerings first. Walked away disappointed. Almost everything I drove felt soft and disconnected, the interiors were laden with electronic gizmos that I did not want - in essence that market lacked a sporting focus. Then someone suggested that I look at the STi and the Evolution. Neither car was on my radar at the time. Drove both, liked the STi, but felt like it needed a little suspension work. Drove the Evo IX and walked away mumbling something about never having driven anything this razor-sharp. Literally nothing else. So that's what I bought. Two of them to be specific. I'm going to be buried in my IX; zero interest in buying another (personal) car. Love it to death! This being said, if the Evolution were not available, I would have definitely bought the '06 STi.
I own a 2003 red blobeye WRX, and i love Evo's idk why there is hatred between WRX's and EVO's they are both amazing cars.
2004-2005 was the year for blobeye
It's solely a ricer thing. If I may speak for the Evolution community, and I often have, we don't hate Subarus. Simply don't care about them, same as any other mass-produced car.
My whole class (racing) got spanked by an sti last weekend lol
Engine explodes*
So you did a pull in your sti.......
Wrx are everywhere. That is why I went for my Evo and I am loving every minute of it
get out of here man, get out of here.
acura130 it’s true don’t get upset
APE1337 I have had my Evo x with 80k miles now, engine is running strong and I just upgraded the clutch to a stage 2 competition. I am enjoying every bit of it. Not that expensive
It's amazing how many wrx listings include "never vaped in" instead of "never smoked in" in the description
You'd be surprised!😂

Lee, politics are important because we do live here. Feinstein is important because she's just like al the other leftist elected in this state. Horrible policies that restrict our freedoms are why politics are important. Exhaust laws and milage taxes are why politics are important. And not to mention he parents who live here who might send their kids to public schools. Dude, local politics are extremely important because they affect our everyday lives.
Watching this video in 2022 and hearing “you can get it for under $10,00” this world has changed so much 😔
🥺🥺🥺 -Edgar
You kinda brushed over the 11-14 era of the Wrx/Sti, the hatches are amazing
Part 2!? 👀
Fitment Industries oh yes 👀
SO YOU WANT A GT86/FRS/BRZ NEXT PLIZZZ
loving the new series. as much as I want an so you want a 350z/370z.
I think so you want a rotory or classic car would be a good idea
The worst part of owning an STI is getting asked what car you have in public so you have to say "I have a Subaru WRX STI" so it's not out of context
I blew 2 engines in 6 months of owning my 04 WRX... somehow I still love them
This video made me subscribe. I love my WRX and vid had me rolling
Thank you! Welcome to the fam! 🙏🏼😂
come to germany. NOBODY has a WRX here. but I want one
I've had two WRXs, no problems with head gaskets. The first was a 97, pissed off V8s all over the place, but 2nd gear became a problem after hitting a kangaroo in two occasions. the first time the gear selector broke in 3rd gear ( not fun when overtaking a semi ), got it fixed. The second time the reverse idler shaft broke, blocking 3rd and no reverse, got it fixed. 6 months later 2nd gear shattered, no idea why, got it fixed, another 6 months 2nd gear shattered, again no idea, a race driver I met checked how i drove said I was babying it. Went for a few years, decided to give the engine a good service ( check bearings, check turbo etc ) got in car, drove onto the main road ( only 150 kms to go the the shop to do this service ) and 2nd gear exploded again, a long way to go to get it fixed. Got a forester gearbox put in, fine but speedo show 100km/h actual speed 84 km/h, engine revving out early. sold it in 2012 ( 15 yo ) bought a 2011 model. The 1997 was a rally machine, the 2011 model is a yuppie city car, ok at the lights ( not as a drag car ) but no legs for the highway. only had it for 7 years so far. ( almost got the sound system just how I want it ).
Sounds like you have had quite the experience with the Subarus!😂
