Overview & Reviews
Subaru completely redesigns the Impreza and brings a high-performance turbocharged WRX variant into the fold to offer enthusiasts the opportunity to drive a powerful, all-wheel-drive sport sedan without breaking the bank. All Imprezas benefit from improvements in performance, refinement and safety. Along with the Impreza's trip upmarket come revised trim levels consisting of two sedans (WRX and 2.5 RS) and three wagons (WRX, Outback Sport and 2.5 TS Sport Wagon). The coupe body style has been dropped.
- A stout 227 horsepower in the WRX, all-wheel drive, a variety of sedans and wagons to choose from.
- No more coupe, extroverted styling may be too much for some.

Cool car - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By BebeDeimos - May 13 - 10:00 amThe car is excellent. Lots of room for a tall person and good design for off road without compromizing anything for on-road use. The car has plenty of acceleration, however the A/C tends to bog down the engine a bit. I have installed an aftermarket stereo with Infinity speakers, an Infinity subwoofer and a Blaupunkt amp. My advice is to skip the stereo upgrades and install an aftermarket yourself. The basic Clarion is not very good and even the upgraded speakers suck. The optional subwoofer is not very good, but it is small (which is why it is not very good).

problem child - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By gurumichael - April 25 - 1:13 pmI was thrilled after waiting 7 years for this puppy. Shortly after purchase I had to get both front struts replaced as they were bad, driver side window worked on three times for squeeking, dash rattles inside (third time) and the computer on it had to be sent away for a week after two months of driving! This is all with normal driving and no modifications. Its a blast to drive, but way too many problems for the price tag and the lack of quality. I recommend looking at alternatives.

1yr later and Id buy it again - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By Rocko - April 19 - 2:00 amThought Id throw in my 2cents after owning this car for a full year. Bought new in Feb 02 and is honestly some of the best money Ive ever spent. Great acceleration, nice compromise of handling and comfort, and ohh, the Momo steering wheel. Seriously, this has to be one of the most meatiest factory steering wheels in any vehicle. I own a 5 speed and could live without the clutch shudder, which is my biggest gripe. But at the end of the day, if it were ever stolen or totalled, I would be rushing out to buy another.

Oh My- What Fun - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By zsurfer - March 31 - 10:00 amHave had the car for 2 months. Cant get over the way the car performs. I came from a 92 GTI and thsi car rocks. Cant get over the rush of accelerations each time the tach hits 3K. Have to keep the turbo spooled to get the most out of the engine, but nothing beats crusiing along with the engine growkling along at the sweet spot. Oh and the AWD system is awesome. The car is amazing at spirited turns. Best bang for the buck. But if you are going to complain about the way the car looks or kack of leather and sunroof- This car is not for you.. You are just missing the point on what this car is about.

Impreza is awsome - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By sullietal - March 31 - 2:00 am2.5 TS waggon. 4 spd auto. Ive owned Hondas and Mazdas. This is the most solid and well built hatchback I have owned. They call it a Sport Waggon. I feels very sporty in round town handling. It darts in and out of traffic far better than my accord or 323 ever did. Fun! Fun! Fun! And I dont feel guitly about it. It get good gas mileage and costs less than a similaly equiped Honda.

The car ive wanted since i was 16... - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By wrx420 - February 18 - 2:00 amI really like this car...though, im pretty biased. Its quick, fun to drive, handles great...super tight. The interior is sleek and the 6-Disk in dash is very nice. If the engine holds up for another 200,000 miles ill have lived a happy life.

Read this for an unbiased opinion! - 2002 Subaru Impreza
By LoganC1 - February 10 - 10:00 amHad my WRX for 4 months now & have about 10K miles. I live in the midwest w/ weather conditions of ice, snow, rain, 90 degree heat, etc. I also drive an average of about 85 miles a day, so I know how comfortable it is. Let me say that this is the best car in any given situation. Its got power, relability, handling, looks (not only my opinion). Ive had various women tell me how great my car looks, so whoever says it looks ugly is just jealous they dont have one. Ive let all my friends drive it, and all said they love it.
