2025 Subaru WRX tS Basically Fixed Everything I Didn’t Like About The WRX, And All It Took Was Another $10,000

Back when Subaru last redesigned the WRX, my first drive didn’t exactly leave me super impressed. Instead of leaning into its WRX-ness for the final gas-only iteration, it seemed like Subaru had tried a little too hard to attract BMW 3 Series buyers. The result, at least the version I drove, was a car that felt like something neither the 3 Series crowd nor traditional WRX buyers would be happy with. As someone who was a big WRX fan growing up, I was a little sad.
