Sarah -n- Tuned has officially become my favorite YT car reviewer.
Agrees!
@Sarah -n- Tuned, Very cute! Very hot. There's someone in Japan who reviews japanese cars and does the exact same you do. So knowledgeable and smoking hot! The best!!! 👏👏👏
@@menestrello6159 MII PARKING, but its in japanese just to warn you!
I'm 70 yr old and my very favourite of the vehicles I have owned in my life was the 2002 WRX bug eye wagon, which was the 1st yr they came to NA. Not only was it the most fun, it surprisingly proved to be the most reliable. Would never buy one now since they dropped the wagons/hatchbacks, a sedan just doesn't suit my lifestyle.
I agree. I bought a regular 2017 Impreza sport wagon/hatchback. I would of bought a wrx if you could get them in a wagon/hatchback. They really need to bring it back!
YES! Same with the 2015. I absolutely love the body style of my sport wagon....I can't stand that "sport" just means aero kit and the word "sport" embossed three times around the car. If they made a new wide body sti hatch it would look so sick.
The wagon isn't available in the US. I'm in Australia & I got my WRX Sports Wagon 3 weeks ago. Absolutely love it too.
Love my 02 WRX Wagon too
Had a 2003 bug eye. Loved it. Wish I still had that car today to play around with.
thank christ you finally got one! you always do the most thorough legit reviews, which is part of why you have become my fav over the last few years. thank you for all your hard work! you kick the ass!
"They car you'll love in ten years." You're spot on, and it might not even take that long. I have spent many moons in Subaru world, and WRX People always want the last one. I subbed to help you get to 500k. Great review.
One reason your reviews are so dope is your emotional connection to cars. Your mechanical knowledge, technical understanding, and amazing awkward humor don't hurt either. Would have liked to see the rally car climb hills where you take the SUVs and trucks. Meatballs, please.
Subaru released the WRX and Wagon here in the Philippines a few months ago. Although the wagon is only available in a CVT and it is priced at a premium due to high taxes. Also the SUV craze would make it a rare sight on the roads.
Great review as always 👌
Sarah was really on her game today. A great review and critique of the beloved Subaru WRX. Hope the Subaru folks heed Sarah's wisdom for a hotter STI version.
They won't. There will be no STI on this chassis, nor another STI with an internal combustion engine.
@@zacharydellamano7199 You're stating this as a fact. Where did you get this fact?
@@fishflash1 there is no sti as said by the subaru themselve
@@ghq8982 Thanks for the reply. "I read an article that indicated Subaru will not..." would be an accurate way to communicate, rather than "they won't". I read a similar article. This may not matter to you now, but one day someone will misinterpret this type of comment with a poor outcome for you.
@@fishflash1 Um. Subaru.
This is a great overview. Especially appreciate the underside details, and your wheel size comment. Thanks!
Keep the faith for Subaru, they can pull off something cool for the future.
You are the most driven person ever. Keep it up. You’re awesome.
The new gen grows on you for sure but I still love my 2020! And thank you for the great review! 😃
Sarah, Love both your car reviews along with your project videos. I especially love your attention to detail, like in this video, you made sure your lipstick matched the stitching and WRX logo on the seats. 😉
I am now more conflicted. Great video! I watched your review on the Honda SI, and I truly like the styling of both WRX and the S I. Your review of both vehicles was awesome. Thank you for sharing the information!
A few other YT channels have paint to match the fender plastic and on the rear in just the middle part of the black. I like the look but at least you can change it. Thank you Sarah for this review!
Love the wrx,got a black rs.
Keep up the great videos, you're very informative and interesting to watch.
From your fan in Australia 🇦🇺
I've owned my Limited 22 for almost a year and a half and just found this fantastic video, great review!
So much research and knowledge. Impressive!! Love all the content.
I love your car reviews; keep them coming.
sarah, you totally get it! Love the video content.
Sarah makes a Monday a better day. Could listen to Sarah's narrations all day.
Hi Sarah. Thanks for all the reviews and great videos!
Sarah, always entertaining and informative. Luv your stuff.
Yay Sarah! You always know when I need a boost! About to watch now, and hoping hard for carefulling, heatilated, and a bolster test! 😁
Your videos are really indepth and the underbody shot was so nice!
Great Video I like the Depth that you go into details even getting it Up on a Lift! Nice Work!
This was a great review and fun to watch!
There was supposed to be an STI of this car, but the rumor is that it could not pass emissions standards anymore. There are pictures of it in Japanese car magazines, and lots of optional STI branded parts you can put on from Subaru.
I just figured that Toyota put pressure on them to NOT release an STI that would compete with the new GR Corolla, as a conditionof the FRS/DRZ collaboration or something.
Everything about you is amazing Sarah 👍keep it up
Enjoyed the review and format, very entertaining
Those quad exhaust tips are real, and they're spectacular!
Like what you did there!
Great review Sarah. I enjoy watching your reviews better than anyone else. Plus your prettier than the rest. I’ve ordered my shirt 👕, hope to be the lucky winner. Till the next video ✌️.
Thank you for your great videos Sarah!
Finally! Was waiting for this car review
Without a doubt the best comprehensive review I have seen, not to mention the tester.
Glad you finally reviewed it!
Bought my first Subaru two years ago. 2020 STI . Absolutely love it !!
Thanks for your input on this WRX
We are tuning in to Sarah
Awesome review, agree with most of the points, cool car and Sarah is gorgeous. Love it.
I love my GT. Peak boost is 15+ psi so far. I’m not saying Subaru fudged the numbers, but they fudged the numbers. The other, marginally faster FWD cars in its class couldn’t get out of my driveway 4 months out of the year. This is a great car…yea, even the CVT in the GT is fine.
Stock I peaked 15.9 psi once. Now I have the jb4 and I'm running 20-21 psi. Car pulls pretty hard
I drove the new WRX back to back with the new BRZ... and although the WRX seems faster... the enjoyment was night and day.. Ieft the WRX feeling like it was a chore to drive... and left the BRZ thinking I really need one - such a fun drive
I'm keeping my 2017 STI till the day I die. There is not going to another Subaru like that anymore.
Yeah if you like the hotwheels look, some people prefer the more offroad/rally look.
There you go pointing fingers and flying off the handle! 👈 Great presentation, Sarah. I really liked the screaming tour through the green desert. Too bad the mountain lion had to wear rain boots. Loved your boots though.
I see 12.9 boost on mine. You should have tested the base model. It's 300lbs lighter.
The car is impressive and really shines at higher speeds.
MPG isnt great in city but I manage 38.5 mpg on FLAT highway @ 65mph.
LOVE that skirt, blouse, boot combo! You look pixie like!! (I guess that could be the idea) LOVE the review... I agree about the direction of Sube and what made it great!💋❤❤
great, informative review as always, from a real expert. nuff said 🥰🥰😁😁
This car is on my shopping list and I've been waiting for *_this_* review. 👍
Lovely Video Sarah!
you are the best !!!!! no doubt first time i see you and well .. i van tell
you are the best sarah !!!! thank youuu
Great review and you really captured the essence of what makes a WRX so special... And yep Subaru going electric will be a total fail. Just look at Harley Davidson's attempt. It nearly sent them broke and we all hated it.
Your gas to electric comment was on point. Thank you!
"You can tell, by the way that it is." Is that a Vice Grip Garage reference? It's so cool when car youtubers know about and even watch other big car youtubers.
Great review as always! - I somehow feel the WRX lost part of it's magic when Subaru droped it's WRC-campiagn. Would be sweet to see them back again with this, right? Then they would not have any argument against bringing the STi back. I totally agree on the hatch-back being a more attractive offer than a sedan, but since the rally cars were sedans, I guess they want to keep that wibe going. Also - that pointy finger will never fail to bring funny moments - 😂 Excellent stuff! Thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!
the problem is the WRX design didn't meet the new WRC Design Specifications, group A era ended and so did Subaru participation in the WRC, the wrx would look nothing like the hawk eye or earlier if Subaru made a conforming car.
Awesome review again Sarah. You never cease to impress.
I like it. I’m glad they decided to keep going. I thought they were going to stop making it
Sarah does proper car reviews, thank you!
Absolutely love her channel 😍
Beautiful and smart. Love what you're doing with the cars. The bug is Beautiful.
Thanks Sarah. Great review as usual.
This is probably the best and most descriptive review of any car I've ever seen in my life lol
Nice review. I like the majority of this gen of wrx minus that back end…. But it’s a car about usability above all really. I feel like the wrx is the car that has always been in the running of cars I should buy but it never wins for one reason or another, kind of a shame I really like them.
I know I'm stating the obvious here Sarah but you really know your stuff...awesome review awesomely presented.
Great review, I just picked one up! I love it already.
How do you feel now that it’s been a few weeks
Great review👍thank you Sarah!❤
Every time i enjoy how you play with language. Big thumbs up.
Sarah, glad to see someone praise the new WRX.
I think I'll go to the dealership and look at one. I wonder if I'll be even able to find one? 😆
Loving the suspension overview you should do more of that
You are right on point Sarah! I have a 2019 STI and really wanted to see a new STI but Subaru let us down.
I was wondering why the subie rumble seemed impossible to find in exhaust videos. You mentioning the equal length headers answered that, thank you.
Another great video. 👍 You are lucky to have such nice backcountry roads to play on.
I had a 89 Subaru XT and that thing was so fun to drive for it's generation it ripped threw 8 inches of snow like it was nothing with it's all wheel drive set up and the motor in that took a beating lol I had to put a timing chain after 200k plus miles on it n after that it was still a champ, other then blowing out the air suspension 😆 I hope to find another one again except the XT6 turbo this time
Glad you did the WRX.... BEEN WAITING FOR THIS... NICE WORK!
OMG!! "Rain boots on a mountain lion!" 😆😆 I always give your reviews serious respect, and now that I'm on the cusp of replacing my '13 Mazda 3 Skyactiv hatch (manual, of course!), I'm giving this new gen WRX a spot in my top 5 cars I'm considering. If I choose this car, it HAS to be in WR blue, and I'll likely drop it off at Olympia Autobody to have the wheel arch cladding color-matched. Stay awesome, Sarah!! 😃
Anybody else ever put tape on a cat's feet? They can hardly walk! 😂
@@billbillinger2491 Kitten Mittons!!!!
I was impressed by this review!
The best car reviews on YT bar none.
I agree with you Sarah..they should kept the STI version. Love you ❤️
Haha, I always love the opening, “people from the other side of screen”. Sounds like we are just about a screen shade away.
Great review Sarah.
Rainboots on a mountain lion!? What a visual. 😂I too love the newly added cladding, makes this WRX look rally ready!
Great video as usual Sarah 👏
My 2013 wrx was my first new car. Still have it, currently going through a heavy rebuild after it suffered ringland failure at 100k.
Plastic deck lids or (behind rear seat part) > They Melt. Great outfit Sarah. When Subaru goes electric > they will fold. Pity. Love the Blue paint on this.
Any automotive company that goes full ev will be out of business sooner than later
Got one. Love it. Didn't get it to drag race. Got it to outrun most normal traffic, while having AWD.
I miss the WRX wagon, from the 2000s. Lots of those still out here in Colorado's high country, many of them running on skinny snow tyres all year round, for extra fun on twisty mountain roads.
They could at least try a Crosstrek WRX
I have been waiting for you do one of these.
Great review! Thank you!
Sarah, Your anime pillow analogy was flipping hilarious!
First off, great color choice for a top (shirt) vs car color. Also a great review, that thing begs for STI
I personally prefer your longer reviews, especially the part about interior and overall comfort of the car
Loved your review and totally cute outfit 😎👍
Just got my 23 Premium a few weeks ago and omg I love it so much!! 💁🏼♀️💁🏼♀️
Thank you Sarah!
I have one on order. Can't wait!
Definitely agree the styling will grow on people. The sound isn't amazing. Overall it's a good package, but it's so hard to be excited about it since they killed the STI. Subaru is losing its way in terms of enthusiast interest. We also need hatchbacks. Give us the Levorg!
I feel that’s what happens when a company lets marketing teams design the cars more so than the engineers.
@@SarahnTuned Exactly. You let engineers do their thing, and you get awesomeness like the Clown Shoe!
The GC8 is the best design.
@@JKD6991 Definitely. 😁
@@SarahnTuned no, this is what happens when the government designs new cars. STI was not released because of fuel economy standards.
"Breaking up with your girl for an Anime pillow" I nearly choked on my beer. Never change Sarah!
and I reported the bot scam
@@SonOfTamriel thank you.
Rain boots on a mountain lion, still trying to visualize that,
but I know what you mean.
Love the Subies.
Also love the pinky wand.
Don't know how I got here, but glad I did! Entertaining review on the wrx. I might end up looking at one, although I'm not a fan of the design 🤔
I don't mind the cladding - now any Toyota or Subaru that may in theory go off-road gets these. As for the exterior design 2006 WRX is the beauty queen in my eyes. Fun fact: 2006 Impreza "hawkeye" was designed by Andreas Zapatinas - Greek automobile designer who had worked for Alfa Romeo before joining Subaru - this kinda explains the front grill central part shape in 2006 facelift.
sarah is so real i love it
Breaking up with your gf for an anime pillow 🤣
Might be quieter, but doesn't feel the same 🤣🤣🤣
Red Barchetta, that Canadian band. RIP Neil Peart. Something about internal combustion.
I just picked up a 23 limited and love it. I sold a 22 ZL1 that was a blast but too expensive and too many worries taking it out. this WRX is a perfect balance or daily use and fun.
I planned to buy a new STI when my car lease expired…… now I’m shopping around for another car. Yes I have driven both versions or the new WRX (I live in Australia). They are great, but not a STI. Subaru Australia is doing and pushing for more performance and styling. Maybe, just maybe we can get something special from Subaru. This was a great video btw.
