2011 Subaru WRX, What the 2010 buyers missed out on.

As some of you may already know, Subaru has rolled out it's new, revised and improved, 2011 WRX. It will hit dealerships this summer and will include aesthetic as well as performance upgrades. The new suby sports a wider body with the sti's fender flares, giving it a noticeably wider stance and a performance oriented distinction over the non turbo Imprezas. It will also have the sti's rear bushings and 235/45/17 summer rubber for better grip and handling over the 2010 wrx, which I unfortunately just purchased 2 weeks ago. The new body will aid the car in lowering it's drag coefficient and reduce wind noise at higher speeds. Also included in the new model is the revision of the symmetrical AWD system to a "continuous symmetrical AWD". What the 2010 buyers like myself will not miss, however, will be the enormous dealer mark ups when it debuts this summer. Expect to pay a premium for these new rexers as demand for them is high and supply in many areas is low. My advice to buyers, use this debut as a bargaining chip at your local dealer to get the price u want on a 2010 model. Hey, 0-60 in 4.7 seconds for 25 grand is not a bad deal even if the car kinda looks like a Kia with a hood-scoop.
