The metabolism of the new WRX STi feels more acute, more present, focused like a preschooler on Adderall. The steering was heavy and accurate, with tons of road-reading feedback. The ride was stiff but well-planted. The brakes are heroic. The sport seats are some of the best in Christendom.

The 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX STI can now be had as a sedan. While it’s heavier and there’s a wing in the rearview, it’s also very good.

The Subaru WRX has changed quite a bit in the years since its introduction, and the 2011 enhancements have produced the best-driving iteration yet. Perhaps best of all, it remains among the few standout enthusiast machines available for less than $30K.

The man who buys a WRX STI knows he’s getting a street-legal race car, and all the gut-wrenching performance of a Porsche 911 for half the price. At the right moments, it’s an utterly outstanding piece.

The Subaru WRX STI is still the most approachable and user-friendly all-wheel-drive speed demon on the market, a go-anywhere, do-anything piece of all-weather genius that wants to be your friend in a million different ways. The suspension updates merely sharpen the knife.

Pricing for the Subaru WRX is in bargain-basement territory, truly a lot of performance car for relatively small change. The suspension, body and interior improvements are substantial.

Subaru has a potent one-two punch in the WRX and WRX STI; the only question is how sharp do you want the tip of your spear to be?
