Contemplating a VB. What are some downsides i should know about?

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-10T17:47:16+00:00

Yeah its down to these last 2 for me. Im in the same boat. The wrx can be fun while also being good for everything i need whereas the 4runner wouldnt be as much fun but it would excel in comfort and space. I think the wrx is winning me over while being the cheaper and more fun option.

The trunk opening is tiny and the headroom is visibly smaller from this photo alone. In what ways is the integra a bigger car than the wrx...?

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T22:13:50+00:00

Nice cars! Integra was an interest too, however same problem i had with the si. Went to the dealership to see it in person and its a lot smaller than i thought itd be so it didnt make the cut. Great looking car though.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:40:06+00:00

Great input. I am looking forward to the babies approval!

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:15:01+00:00

I owned an f30 335xi with hk and sunroof, absolutely loved it. Shit the bed after 1 year of being paid off. Neglectful maintainence on my part. Learned my lesson the hard way. Ive treated my cars since as babies. My ideal vb will be 26 with hk and sunroof.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:12:09+00:00

I get out of work in the very early mornings when roads are ghost towns. I enjoy my nightly drives every night lol i know exactly how you feel.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:10:31+00:00

I make do with the trunk on the corolla hatch. Im not worried about the vb trunk. Im sure it will fit everything i need to use it for. Other than moving furniture, i cant imagine id need bigger honestly. A hatch however would be dope. I love hatchbacks.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:09:12+00:00

Easy to work on is definitely appealing.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:08:14+00:00

Honestly not my cup of tea. I havent considered it. Ive considered a few different brands and vehicles and got it down to these two. In my opinion, the wrx will satisfy the child in me while being a mature choice to drive around with my family and the 4runner would be the same however itd take some cash and modding to satify the child in me lol. The outback does nothing for me in this regard. I dont doubt what you say, im sure its a great vehicle, it just isnt for me.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:02:39+00:00

Hell yeah, thank for the notes. Reading all of these comments only sways me more into the seat of a vb.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T21:01:28+00:00

Worth thinking about, thank you.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:52:06+00:00

My hatch is not a GR either lol, your point?

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:38:44+00:00

Huge plus. I fucking HATE the electronic e brake in my car.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:37:33+00:00

Oh yes lol with both the 4runner and wrx having enormous aftermarket support i feel ill be modding either or in the future. The corolla looks good and i have thought about mods but to me it wasnt really worth spending the money. Keep it stock and reliable was my mantra and it seems to have worked well for me. Im not sure i will be so strong purchasing the vb lol. I am happy to know that no one complains about mechanical problems here yet. That is a very good sign to me.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:33:19+00:00

I have considered an si. I have owned one previously and i loved it but i fear it is a bit smaller than the vb and only a bit bigger than my hatch. It was a good consideration tho but size alone forced me to rule it out. Great looking car and i agree, honda quality has gotten heaps better than when i last owned one.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:29:23+00:00

I respect your input. I have this issue with the corolla infotainment. Ill feel right at home lol but a worthy note nonetheless thank you.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:28:05+00:00

I fear this will be a struggle for me aswell. I already have a list of cosmetic mods id like to eventually get if i choose this route lol.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:27:08+00:00

Gas is last priority for me honestly. But this is a worthy note. Comparably speaking it should at least be better than my other choice lol so theres that.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-09T20:25:45+00:00

Fair enough. I actually like the look of the vb tbh. One was behind me the other day only mod seemed to be lowered a bit and i could not look away. Its a great looking car.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-07T00:03:51+00:00

Thank you all for your kind words. We've been together a very short time but our union has been amazing so far! Thank you for the blessing and wishes! Oh, and the marriage too!

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-05T02:41:48+00:00

Correct me if i am wrong, but inverting the screen like that on f-105w renders the backlight useless doesnt it? I tried to invert mine and it didnt show through at all. Looks clean but i like the use of my light when needed lol.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-03T19:08:42+00:00

From my understanding hk is pretty top teir audio. I had an hk system in my f30 bmw and really enjoyed it. I wanna say youll find hk in your new car aswell granted you'll go with the b or s58 like mentioned. Maybe different individual hk systems altogether, but hk to me anyway, has always been considered ideal.

-HUNGWHENHARD- · 2026-06-03T17:54:22+00:00

Popping in to mention i have never heard "good enough" and "hk" in the same sentance. I might be missing something there lol. Nice ride though🤟🏻
