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.

  A great car - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Wheeldog - August 23 - 2:00 am

  As of this writing I have about 146000 miles on my WRX wagon. It has been a terrific car. It was at the time I bought it the best combination of performance, utility, and value, and it still holds up well. I would definitely buy this vehicle again.

  my wrx - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By nategall - July 23 - 12:23 am

  I have been reading everything on the WRX since it came out in the USA on edmunds and any other sites which I could find. The only other car which was in the running was the new Nissan Altima, which is a larger car with more internal features and a pretty good engine. But the test drive in the WRX on a rainy night made up my mind.

  51,000 Miles and still smiling... - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Subaru Drew - June 27 - 10:20 am

  My biggest complaint about my 2 and a half year old WRX is that the front windows squeak when powering the windows down. It is annoying, but in two and a half years and 51,000 miles, that is my biggest complaint. I guess you could say that this car rocks! When I test drove this car I was replacing a 95 BMW 530i. That was a great car and its tread was tough to fill, especially with a car at a fraction of the cost. My expectations were not all that high, but my brother-in-law had just bought an WRX and convinced me to try it. That was all it took. This ride has grin factor! It does lack some refinements found in other cars, but it makes up for it in the drivers seat. Try it, youll like it.

  Fun 2nd Car - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By kotpet - April 29 - 5:00 pm

  Fun 2nd car. Not for every day. Theres a considerable turbo lag, but not an issue if you keep revs above 4000. Some understear. Side mirrors too small. Also, I recommend to change to better tires.

  A Fun, Practical, Fun Value - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Werdrive - April 11 - 2:00 am

  This car is great fun and the best sport sedan value on the market. Its AWD makes it rock in the snow and rain and its turbo-boosted engine make it one of the quickest cars on the market. It surpasses my BMW 530i for accelleration (the Bimmer has a higher and smoother top end) and beats my 4WD SUV for traction. It has a back seat for friends and family and is much more practical then Subaru lets on.

  I love this car - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By nmp - September 11 - 6:36 pm

  I’ve had my Suby for nearly three years now, and I love it more and more all the time. It’s been awesome for me -- a small, sporty woman. It’s a perfect size -- not too big, but large enough to handle multiple pairs of skis, snowboards, mountain bikes, and friends. I’ve had a couple problems -- front brakes had issues after 18k, but the dealership replaced the rotors under warranty free of charge. Clock also quit -- also replaced under warranty.

  Car waiting to be modded... seriously - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By WRXreX - August 16 - 2:00 am

  This car is one of the easiest car to get the power out of. $2000 can make this a reliable 300hp monster www.turboxs.com. On the other hand, $5000 can net you a high 11s WRX. This car is meant to be driven hard and that is what rally car is intended to be. Please dont expect interior quality of VW. You will be disappointed. However, factory option carbon fiber trim kit will make interior look much much better. Tim
