  • I ordered a 2024 Limited for 1k under MSRP...seems like the time to get a semi-nice fun car and hold onto it is NOW, before further laws/regulations/inflation destroys this price segment. When I found out how much replacement pads/rotors cost for those TR brembos I decided adding my own 4 pot front set will cost about the same as the price difference between the Limited and TR but will save me money down the line. I am also a moonroof and lumbar support enjoyer so the choice was clear. Someone on the wrx_vb subreddit said the turn signal stalk is changing back to a "normal" style for 2024 as well, at least in Canada.
  • @Jarn314
    Can’t wait to see your TR hands on 😁
  • @MK3504
    Great video, i haven't kept up in a while but my favorite part of your channel is how down to earth you are. Loved your trackday videos, those were awesome ...... Dont hate me but i think with the proce increase the Elantra N is the best bang for your buck. Thats just my .02 but i may be biased.
  • @steveny8289
    Great video. I would get the TR for the extras. Just wish they would have raised the hp to 310
  • @jdwilliams4821
    Just got a 24 premium a couple weeks ago and absolutely love this car. The black fenders have grown on me and I'll probably just lower the car and get new wheels, but I hope something aftermarket comes out for the back soon...if Subaru could make a new OEM rear that replaces what is currently on it, this will be my favorite WRX
  • @tevintom251
    Personally picked up a 23 Limited w/ SPT and I can say its incredibly comfortable with the Ultrasuede seats and lumbar support. Although coming from a 2005 Nissan Altima with a god awful CVT anything would be an upgrade.
  • @eight6369
    glad i got a '23 in December. also, the interest rates have gone way up for '24
  • @subeyguy66
    In the realm of awd, manual, and fun/semi practical cars, the WRX really stands alone. I love my '22 more now than when I purchased it 2 years ago.
  • @gregm7991
    Just got a new 2023 Premium manual. Got $4000 off MSRP (and $3500 off at competitive dealer). There’s still about 3 dozen new 2023 VBs to be had in my area.
  • Great video thanks for the insight on the new 2024 Wrx. Was wondering if the brembos from the 2024 Wrx tr, would they fit the 22 and 23 models ?
  • My newest motorcycle has electronic suspension and it’s a game changer. Adaptive suspension gives you two or three cars in one. Strongly looking at GT
  • @TheGamingJuicy
    Hope to see Insurance rates drop now that you get to say "yea, i have auto braking, and lane keep assist, and stuff"... hopefully drops the premiums quite a bit
  • @enkymion
    My opinion? Go snag a 2022 or 2023 before they adjust the prices.
  • Only good thing about the TR is that you will be able to pull the brake parts off the shelf from Subaru and bolt them on. Or going back in time before my purchase of my VB. I should have just bought a GD STI. Besides, the chassis it's still a better platform. 😢
  • @mistamaog
    Considering a Civic Si starts at $31k and the GTI starts at $32k, while both being FWD, the WRX is still a great deal. The only trims I feel like aren't worth it after the limited and GT.
  • @coolman9i6
    Kinda bummed i bought a limited last summer. Those brembos on the tr would be a dream on the limited
  • @chrischarles9218
    Still a great value all considered. You will see others in the online car community compare their cars to the VB all the time. The thing is the cars they are claiming that are "better" than the new WRX are $15K more.
  • @HadEnough745
    These cars don't seem to be selling in NY. I've been monitoring dealers' inventories. I guess people don't want to pay $4+ per gallon only to get 19 mpg. If we had a president who wants the US to succeed and be energy independent, gas would be $2 per gallon and these cars would be selling like hot cakes. The "smiles per gallon" novelty wears off after a while as you keep digging into your pocket to pay for premium gas.
  • @AltraxX
    Canadas 2024 WRX trims are so different. WRX - Sport - Sport (SPT) - RS - Sport-tech - GT (SPT)
