But the price is right!

Drove the 2.0 t last night, not very impressed. Very nice car i just thought it would pull alot better then it did. Perhaps it needs to be broken in i dont know.

I also hated how the reverse was the first gear then went 1 through 6.
Guess its just a preference, probably because i have never had a car with that set up before.

It is grey 2010 and my friend picked it up for $24 000.

Anyone try out the 2.0t yet? I'm in the market and VERY tempted. Also, it's $10K less than the 09 WRX.

Took a 2.0T automatic out on Saturday. I'm not huge into cars by any means, but I liked it. Enough power to boot around in. I'm not into modding or anything, although I'd probably do some minor stuff to it.

I managed to talk them into giving me what I wanted for my Tiburon in exchange I purchased a 2.0T Premium package in Grey. Waiting to sign the paperwork, but they've got my deposit so in my mind, I've bought it

I know they're different platforms and in no way can be compared.


AWD > RWD, but I already have a Subaru. I think the Genesis coupe would be a fun little summer car while I build up the Scooby.

I just drove a V6 6 speed. nice car, well balanced, good accelleration, brakes need more ... grab (pedal feels kinda mushy but good enough for most drivers)

Reminds me very much of a 350Z non-track
