GD WRX Questions

[Phantom]

Okay, this is for those who are familiar with the GD WRX.

I know that there is the WRX and the WRX STi.

What does the TR stand for?

Are there Limited trim level for both the WRX and the STi?

What's the difference between a Limited and a non-Limited level?

I heard of some not so good comments regarding the transmission in the '02-'03 WRX models. Can anyone verify this? I also heard of people installing the transmission from the GC Impreza because of the better gears.

And can someone tell me what the rear passenger space is like in the GD WRX? What car it is comparable to in rear passenger room?

You're entitled to your wrong opinion

If hating Suburus is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

I'm thinking of getting a 2005 WRX wagon eventually...

I am considering a WRX sedan in a few years. It'll be a daily driver and will allow me to do some work on the Supra.

As for the person that said WRX are ftl, you are entitled to your personal opinion. But to be honest, I am sensing some jealousy. I don't know if it is a Toyota only loyalty and maybe you have something against other makes. If it makes you feel better, it is made by Fuji Heavy Industries, which happens to be partly owned by Toyota Motor Co.

It's spelled Subaru by the way.

Subaru makes a very good car, and are very safe too . Im not sure about all the trim levels, but one of my favorites is the SVX

 

[Poodles]

yes, Toyota now owns quite a bit of Subaru (someone sold it off, I forgot who)

There are quite a few fast ones around here, I know better than to take em from a dig, but from a roll it's anyone's game...

Jealousy... That's funny. Jealous of what?

I think it was GM that sold their share of Subaru to Toyota. GM owns Saab and because they also owned Fuji Heavy Industries, they basically took the GD WRX, redesign the outside of the car, and badged it as the Saab 9-2X.

I also think that the WRX is a nice car. I can't argue with the four doors and the trunk space.

wrx = pain in the ass to work on. Well since we are supra owners... they are probably cake..

If any Porsche sounded like a WRX, its broken. Let me tell you that now.

 

[Poodles]

[Big Wang Bandit]
