2009 Subaru Impreza 2.5i upgrades from stock?
I just bought the new car and was wondering what the most feasible solutions for adding power to it were. Buying an STI or WRX didn't make sense for me right now but I was planning on adding upgrades to it here and there over the years. Turbo, intake, exhaust, suspension? What's worth it and what won't work?

I don't get why people say they bought a 2.5 RS/i because it didn't make sense to pay the extra $8000 for a WRX but they want more power and are willing to spend $8000 modding it. Save up some money until you can buy a WRX/STI and just enjoy your car now for what it is. I'm not trying to be a dick...

2009 subaru impreza wrx hatch mpg?
I want to get an 09 wrx for college. But it says it gets 18/25 mpg. That's not too bad but compared to the n/a standard impreza it is like a 5mpg decrease!

I would say its a great decision if you have the money to pay for the 92 octane rating gas. I would say get the standard impreza 2.5i. I have the same car and i get 24mpg driving through back roads. 30-35 mpg on the highway and i have gotten Between 16-19 mpgs in the city. But i shift at 3000 rpms...

Subaru 2009 impreza air conditioner broke after a month of use?
My subaru 2009 impreza outback sports addition air conditioner broke after a month of use. Is there a defect in the model?

I don't think so but my 2008 impreza 2.5i's airconditioner broke after 2 months. Under warranty we got it fixed. Subaru's are really reliable so maybe it is just a coincedence. If you plan on selling it then don't because i have owned 2 subaru's a 2004 2.5i and a 1999 Outback.

What's the difference between the 2008 and 2009 subaru impreza?
Please have specific details!!!

Nothing is going to be different. I have heard rumors on forums but nothing with evidence that things will change and with the 09's coming any day now, we would have seen or heard something concrete by now.

Why should I also consider these? X

Two affordable alternatives to the Impreza are the Volkswagen Rabbit and the Suzuki SX4 Crossover.

The Rabbit doesn't have all-wheel drive, but it's loaded with safety features, a peppy five-cylinder engine, and a well-appointed interior, while the little SX4 Crossover is the lowest-priced vehicle with all-wheel drive, performs well, and has an interior that feels more upmarket than its price.

The Toyota Matrix is a good alternative, with available all-wheel drive, a relatively roomy interior, and a good ride.

But the Matrix doesn't perform as ably as the Impreza, and safety items like side airbags are optional on the Matrix.

The Dodge Caliber offers all-wheel drive as an option on its top R/T model, but the Caliber has a noisy interior and feels cheaper inside; Subaru shoppers might not find its styling very appealing either.

And for those who miss the former Impreza's edgier handling and sharper feel, the Mazda3 and Lancer deliver, but in both counts, engine and road noise can be quite obtrusive.
