The Subaru Impreza WRX is a restyled version of the Subaru Impreza and in addition is powered with a 293 horsepower WRX STI.

The new feature in this car is the Subaru dual stage advanced air bag system. The Subaru Impreza WRX sports a new grille which looks like a mesh which is directly inspired from the company’s heritage of air crafts. The body has styled headlights with tinted smoky glass. The car also features the day time running lights which is more of a safety feature.

To make the car look sporty there is a roof vane spoiler which has been directly taken from the world rally car from Subaru.  The Subaru Impreza WRX is based on the WRX platform which is a concept car and the main aim is to provide enhanced acceleration, handling and performance with enhanced brakes.

The Subaru Impreza WRX derives its power from a 2.5L DOHC boxer Configuration that can produce up to 293 horsepower at 6000 rpm with a combination of 6 speed manual transmission. The car can reach 0-60 mph in a respectable and amazing 5 seconds. The Subaru Impreza WRX won the best car award for the year 2004 by reader’s choice.
