Overview & Reviews

As the Impreza was redesigned just last year, not much changes for 2003. Convenience has been improved; keyless entry is now standard equipment on the 2.5 RS, TS Sport Wagon and Outback Sport. For the WRX, Subaru will offer a standard rear spoiler on the sedan (though you can still get the car without, if you want) and Sonic Yellow is available as an exclusive WRX color.

• A stout 227 horsepower in the WRX, all-wheel-drive grip, a variety of sedans and wagons to choose from.

• Often pricey when compared to its competition.

  It does it all! - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By Dave - December 30 - 6:40 am

  I never write reviews, but I love this car and feel I owe it to the brand. I am completely sold on Subarus from now on. Snow, dirt, and wet roads are afterthoughts in this thing. I have taken it everywhere from snowdrifts to Jeep trails, and never had to second guess it. My favorite feature about it is storage space. I considered the few other cars with the elusive combination of storage and fuel efficiency, but none can touch the Subarus AWD drivetrain. I will never go back to owning a truck for recreational purposes. The wagon can carry multiple bikes, gear for all and still have room for my dog. I love this car.

  Passes everything except a gas station - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By Mike Miller - December 4 - 10:00 am

  Overall a a very nice car. Open road driving is great, but the turbo lag is annoying. The power is poor until you hit 3,000 RPM, then it takes off like a rocket. Also, the gas mileage is nowhere near the 20/27 listed on the sticker. More like 20/23. Also, the transmission is not that smooth at times. Overall, though I like the car a lot and often take the long way home as long as that way involves lots of hills and curves!

  If loving my new WRX is wrong.... - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By Mack1952m - December 4 - 10:00 am

  ... I dont wanna be right! This is a wonderful car! Its fast, quick, handles well, carries kids & cargo, loves the freeway & the winding backroad, & it looks good sitting still, too! It combines many of the assets of my 2 previous cars, a 99 Saturn SL2 & a Mustang GT. Its the best of both worlds! Its a very tight, well-built machine, very comfortable, & did I mention that it was F-A-S-T ??

  Having Fun!!!! - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By curly333333 - November 11 - 10:00 am

  This car is fun to drive. I find myself making excuses to drive it. I have done extensive modifications to it to improve horsepower and performance and i still get 25 mpg on the highway. I have never had to have anything fixed.

  All Speed, Junk parts - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By Sooby Doer - September 20 - 2:00 am

  This car is very fun to drive, but buyer beware. My car is not even a year old but its been to service more times than my older car. Ive had problems with the cheap paint (easily stains), the engine light turning on and fluid leaks.

  Hold on to your Nickers - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By Slanty - September 15 - 2:00 am

  The car is great. You cant get a better buy for under 30. Dont buy this car looking to modify, unless you take your time, because the parts are hard to come by. Its fun to drive, but to tell you the truth, i have no idea on how reliable it is. The WRX has only been around for a few years... But you should replace your car every 5 years anyways :P

  Best Car Ive Ever Had!! - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By zfoster13 - August 15 - 10:00 am

  This is the absolutely best car Ive ever owned! I went from Honda Civic coupes to this and it is more comfortable and is more powerful than the Civic. The styling is great, I love the fog lights. It even has power in 5th gear!

  Love My Wagon - 2003 Subaru Impreza
  By marketresearch2001 - May 22 - 10:00 am

  This car is a hoot to drive and has all kinds of mods available. You can make this car go very fast cheaply. Just by pulling a vacuum/pressure hose I was apply to pull a 13.68 in a 1/4 mile. This car is otherwise stock except for an aftermarket muffler. What is also great about this car is the following at WRXs forums and all the info about them.
