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.

  I love my WRX. - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By mjzaun - September 16 - 2:00 am

  This car is a fun car to drive. It is fast and has great handling. The gas mileage is poor, but I can deal with it. With the wagon, you not only get speed, but you also get a ton of storage space. I love this car so much, but be warned. My husband recently found out that there is a glitch in the transmission in the 2002 models that makes it go bad around 50K miles. I think the info is in Consumer Reports. Sorry for the bad news, but otherwise, for now my car is great.

  Cant Beat It - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Jander - September 14 - 10:00 am

  One word FAST!!!!! Thats all that explains it. Smoothest car, try going 110mph, turn the radio off and listen. What do u hear? In this car pretty much nothing but the sound of the turbo, like an airplane. Watch out Cobras ur in danger........

  WOW!!! - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By andy_17 - August 8 - 2:00 am

  Great car. Good for everyday driving as well as having a lot of fun on the weekends. The turbo charged engine gets you to were you want to be quickly yet doesnt eat up the gas. Overall, a great purchase for the price

  Best car I ever owned - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Drover - August 3 - 10:00 am

  The WRX is the best all-around performance bargain America. In the right hands, it will outperform a new Mustang GT in a 0-60 or 1/4-mile yet it has the utility to haul a family of 4 and 2 weeks worth of groceries. Those used to Taurus- or Camry-like handling will find the suspension tuning of this car somewhat rough. Yet compared to other cars in its price and performance class, the WRX has a positively smooth ride. Overall, an exceptional convergence of spirited performance, daily/family adaptability, reliability and affordability.

  Fun to drive - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By jasonk - August 3 - 10:00 am

  The most fun I have had driving a car. High performance, reliability, all- season driving at an affordable price. Nothing compares to it at this price range.

  great performance for the money - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Sgt Schultze - July 5 - 10:00 am

  Very quick. Although noticeable turbo lag with auto trans. But shift down to third to get up to speed and turbo lag almost disappears. Decent looking car. Much nicer than the 2.5RS I traded in for it.

  Fun to drive little bastard! - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By kotpet - June 9 - 2:00 am

  This is about my 5 speed turbo, 2002 WRX. This car is in a class of its own, for $25k youre getting an outstanding performance, quality, and AWD, whick is very cool! I low when the engine revs above 4,000, and turbo kick in. This car is not without its drawbacks though: fuel economy (what economy?), close to 10 mpg city cycle, and this is pushing it half-assed, level of road noise- maybe one has to invest in better tyres, also ABS is not tunned to the sports car, it starts too early, but one can disable it by removing a fuse (I dont recommend this!). Great car again, my next one is going to be Lancer Evolution.

  Goes Fast, Grinds Faster - 2002 Subaru Impreza
  By Baoh - June 3 - 2:00 am

  This car has great power, handling, and seats. Its great to drive, but 4th gear synchros went out at about 23,500 miles, were replaced under warranty, and now, 2000 miles later, the 1st and 4th gear synchros are both out and the car is in the shop right now under warranty. It makes no sense that the new ones wouldnt last as long as the original ones. They arent replacing the tranny, just repairing.
