Used 2022 Subaru WRX Base

Ice Silver Metallic 2022 Subaru WRX AWD 6-Speed Manual 2.4L DOHC. Recent Arrival! Odometer is 8982 miles below market average! 19/26 City/Highway MPG. The WRX is an excellent GT. AWD system is great and has no issues. The transmission has 6 forward speeds, which means it’s often not obvious with the optional “short-throw” shifter what gear it’s in. The manufacturer gave us a dashboard indicator to tell you that, but it’s low on the panel where it’s partly obscured by the steering wheel hub unless you adjust the tilt wheel and seat height carefully. The indicator doesn’t show anything until you let in the clutch, when it’s too late to correct having selected the wrong gate. The movement of the shifter is a little unnatural in the top two gears with a deliberate sideways push necessary to get 6th when shifting up from 3rd, instead of 4th, and if you’re trying to downshift to 5th, the synchromesh wants to give you 3rd. Fortunately it’s a close ratio transmission so you won’t cause much trouble by getting 4th instead of 6th. The brake and accelerator pedals are placed at different levels and too far apart for heel-and-toe downshifts while braking. The collar on the shifter you have to pull up on to engage reverse is another modern “idiot proof” feature but I think it's helpful – with the sideways push you need to engage 6th it would be truly a disaster if you got reverse instead and the gates are really close. The HVAC system has its own quirks. It has a thermostat so you dial in the temperature you want. This system has been available since 1990 to my certain knowledge, but it’s an example of “why-tech” rather than “high tech” (with apologies to Road & Track, which produced an article with that title). If you get into the WRX and it’s below freezing outside, you’ll discover quickly that the thermostat’s lowest setting is 60. That results in hot air pouring out of the heater. You can turn it off or take off your outer layer.
