If you haven't yet heard of the Subaru Impreza WRX, you're reading the wrong magazine. One rule for passengers: "NO Screaming". A yellow sign warns of twisting roads for the next 17 miles, and secretly promises that those miles will be a delightful trampoline of switchbacks, bowl curves, rippled pavement, dips, and rises—just the conditions required to exercise the athletic skills and balance of the WRX fully. The muscular boxer engine's rumble, the turbocharger's blow-off valve, and differential whine as power is routed through all four wheels just add to the primal sensation. For years, the turbocharged hot rod was sold in Europe and Japan but not in the US. Then, when Subaru unveiled its new Impreza, the WRX version was finally offered to U.S. customers.
