Living With The 2024 Subaru WRX Sport Tech 6MT 

This is a 2023. The 2024 is not out yet. Expected to get here in Canada first quarter of 2024.

This is a 2023...

"the all wheel drive trim" OK I'm leaving.....

Just ordered my WRX Sport Tech black, test drove it today on some windy roads and went from 22km to 44km, pick it up next week 😄😁😆😊

I just bought the exact same car, I'm up to about 2000Km now. First impressions: great visibility and driving position Very smooth damped clutch engagement. Very easy to drive smooth. Easy to match revs. Great commuter Shifter is a bit notchy, can be stubborn going into first Fast but not edgy, not super exciting. Actually a nice balance for a daily driver. Brakes not great. Strong enough but squishy. Would prefer sportier brakes. Wish I had the Brembos Ride is perfect. Firm and corners level but not rough Handling is kinda weird. Feels like it "pivots" rather than turning in. Maybe that's a Subaru thing Steering is overboosted and super numb. Accurate but no feel 6th gear is too short. Would have liked a taller overdrive for the highway. Harmon Kardon stereo is just "ok" Not bad but not great Heated seats get hot enough to burn your ass. Awesome Big center screen becomes invisible in sunlight Controls and switches have a quality feel A bit noisy, part of the character I guess Could use another 50hp and another 500rpm of over-rev. Smacks the rev limiter too soon at 6kRPM To my delight, it's highly tuneable. Immense potential for not a lot of dough. Hated the cladding at first but it has grown on me. It's more suited to bad roads and I'm not sweating about chipping it up My first "mod" was the F1 style lower brake light. Really improves the look for like 60 bucks. Breaks up that big black diaper on the back. Easy installation.

If you want a sporty, fun manual with all wheel drive for low to mid 30k's, this is really the only option. Living in New England, I've had four of them, staring with the original 2002 bug eye--all, brand new. If you put a set of winter tires on it, it will smooth out the ride a little. I find the suspension totally fine for daily driving, but if I had your bumpy roads, I might look for something else.

If this was available as a WAGON I would buy one in a heartbeat.

Having a '23 Sport and knowing what the '22 looks like, is there any major difference for the new '24 model ? I know this is the same generation with the VB, but I feel like I'm looking at the same model BTW, love the shirt 🏎

That's not a 2024 because they aren't even close to coming to North America yet. 2024s will get here in late winter/early spring 2024.

Hey man just wanted to send positive energy to you! A lot of unnecessary negative comments from people who act like they’ve never made a mistake. Ignore them, you’re doing a lot of us a favor by taking time from your life to give us a look into what it’s like owning the car. Thanks man! Quick question tho, is that “knocking” sound on a cold start normal? I really thought it was engine knock but seems like to be a regular thing

Excellent review. Appreciate the Canadian perspective. Your wife adds another dimension, really appreciate it! More needed. Btw, isn’t the “Z” a rear wheel drive car? As for manual, with the exception of the truck I’m currently driving, it’s all I’ve ever driven. All the comments about traffic problems etc. with a manual are lame. Driving a manual in traffic is benign: you just do it without thought. Driver engagement: (DCT has its merits) but nothing beats the connection of driving with a manual - miss it so much.

Why doesn't this have eyesight? The 2024 models are equipped with eyesight on the 6mt You might have titled the video incorrectly

My dream car to buy 🙏

Best Subaru vehicle to date and the only Subaru worth buying.......

This is a 2023, and there is built in navigation. Very top left icon, says maps... Edit: the newer software update will fix your wifes complaint about the heated seat, more proof this is a 2023 (and an early 2023 model)

the screen console thing hurts the soul

is this the same trim level as tr? Or is this tr but the sporttech trim for 2024?

AWD trim??????? all subarus except for the BRZ have been AWD forever

How wide is it from outer ends of mirrors

Are you able to change the brightness on the media system or like anything? It looks bright at night

Never saw a review video with that much of staring the engine shots.

Yes, to more wife material

That is NOT loud 😂

How can you say thats loud or sounds good in any way!?! Uuuugghhh When subaru decided to go equal length they lost 70% of their fanbase. The plastic fender.. YUK. the only nice things are the colour and hood scoop. The motor is no longer a hype because the sound ruined it. Yes you can go unequal length but you young kids just don't understand the Subaru rumble is heritage. I would swap for an oldie Subaru ANY day. Even half the price suby.. this offends me

The most annoying video come to find out it’s a 2023 wtf

They forgot to paint half of your car
