Subaru’s performance king, the Impreza WRX STI is an even more aggressive version of the WRX. It features a 300-hp version of the turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder boxer and a six-speed manual transmission. The all-wheel drive system also gets a driver-controlled center differential, along with a hill-hold system too. When you put your foot down the STI delivers a big hit, and its suspension has been refined to handle that power easily. The visual changes include bigger wheels, a larger hood-scoop, wider fenders, a more aggressive body kit, and four exhaust pipes. The interior gets STI logos everywhere, including the supportive seats. Available only as a five five-door.

Pros

Safe, secure performance

Cons

A face only a mother could love
