I wish they weren't so overlooked. They have no Legacy specific-aftermarket support, but the GC Impreza was built off the first Legacy platform so a lot will swap over with little to no modification.

will this be the next godmachine?

it's all the benefits of an ND but

>a good bit faster, 200hp from the factory instead of 140, with the 1.4 known to be capable of 225hp with ONLY a chiptune
>looks more interesting, whether or not it's outright better seems to be mixed
>exhaust note much like the fiat 500 abarth, which is the best exhaust note under 50 grand easily
>the only true internal fiat part is the engine and it's been very reliable in other platforms, everything else is mazda meaning mostly reliable
>upgraded springs, shocks, brakes, and some roll bars to boot.

what's the downside? why isn't there more hype about this already?

High speed pursuit, then they call the Commos and Falcons to come and apprehend

>>14682264
Why bother with a high speed pursuit? It's not like there's a car that can outrun a radio, or a helicopter.

High speed pursuit cars are more of a excuse for policemen to have exciting cars and look good for the media than anything else.

I'm planning on buying an SUV for towing cars with a trailer so these are heavy loads, does it matter whether it's RWD or AWD? Does AWD tow better or there's not that much difference than RWD?

>>
>>14682152
how often are you towing? are we talking a tow dolly or a 3 car trailer?

AWD/4x4 reduces towing capacity by eating into your GVWR.

>>14682152
RWD for towing
>>
>>14682152
Rwd would be better choice, but a light pickup from any manufacturer would be an even better choice, in every way I look at it. Why SUV?

hypothetical thread.

Your grandfather has died. He's the last of your grandparents to kick the bucket. The money was gone before he died but there were no outstanding debts. In his will, he leases you his pride and joy. A pristine 1989 Chevrolet Caprice Classic.

Wat do?

Not old enough to be a classic, not new enough to be any good. Drive it in his memory, then sell it.

Hell, when my grandfather died, I was given his car. It was a shitty 80s Fiesta, though, and turned out to be a cut-and-shut.
And the interior was literally coated in a mixture of honey and beeswax, because he kept bees.

Waze has been a better than a radar detector. But would say when I had one I never got a ticket. When it goes off how long until cops get a reading? I know laser is instant.
