    Is the WRX a huge SUV or a sports car? I just realized I have no idea what sort of cars Subaru makes other than wagons and what I imagine are reasonably sized SUVs.

      Rally-inspired sedan/hatchback. The stereotypical driver is a vaping dude-bro so the DUI thing tracks

        My mistake. I thought there was a subculture of DUI lesbian Subaru drivers which at least seemed aesthetically cool, even if drunk driving is :haram:

      Rally car. Even if you haven’t seen an sti, you’ve probably heard one.

        It's weird. When it comes to recent cars (the last few decades) that are aerodynamic in a similar way - I simply can't remember one from the other. I have some kind of aerodynamic car blindness.

        I really love cars from the 1960s and 70s and when I see them I get nostalgia. I'm at google looking at the STI right now. If I saw glimpse of one a few weeks from now - I wonder if I'd even recognize it.

          Honestly can’t even fathom driving as a hobby. The price of gas combined with the price of cars has left me sidelined.

            After the revolution, there will be no cars on the roads or streets, but there will be these huge closed courses with super cars where everyone can go super fast, drift, and do donuts.

            Used to think having money to work on a project car was bougie madness

            Now I think just having a garage is

            Karting is a fun alternative. It's great because everyone has the same set up so it's all about skill. Also the 24 hours of lemons seems like a great concept.

          STIs look like the Plymouth Superbird minus about 20 feet of excessive sheet metal and two extra doors. Like the Superbird, it's the most obnoxiously styled car on the road currently.
