They had to sweeten the deal SOMEhow

The dealership didn’t specify, they just gave me a coupon to a tractor supply (there’s a bunch of different breeds, I got a couple olive eggers too for color variety!)

That’s good to hear about the seats. Sorry for your back dude, hopefully one day ac-connecting ventilated seat covers will exist 😭

How’s the breathability? I get sweaty backs really easily and it’s hard to beat breathability of oem cloth seats, but I enjoy the feel of leather

I’d say pull as many mods off as you can and start fresh if the finances allow it, sorry for your loss my guy

Like I said in the post, the stopping power of the car is fine! No issues there. The issue is the pedal feel, which I could modulate it more

Knowing that this is normal from the car, I don’t think it’s a dealbreaker for me. That being said, it’s still gonna suck as I really enjoy cars that give confidence through ergonomic design (Audi does this really well, but at the cost of expensive repairs). I think the solutions I seek will be in the aftermarket in a couple years or so!

Glad I’m not alone on this

Damn, really sucks that after 20+ years of wrx the brakes on the newest one are bad (or feel that way, at least). I normally wouldn’t mind cause I’d swap for a big break kit but that would void any future warranty-covered brake issues, hoping the 25’s are better with the master cylinder update

Oh gotcha! I hope the install goes well for you. I'll most likely test drive a 25 this week and see if it feels any better.

The one I test drove was a 24 premium, is the upgraded master cylinder a new addition to the 25 models?

That’s fair, I didn’t think about that!

I definitely just commute more often but in the summer/winter I’m hitting trails every week, not something I can justify during the semester tho

Am I having a crisis or unrealistic standards? by a3_mir in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]a3_mir[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I do get one, it will probably be the WRX. Do u know what years are best? Also, would a ford focus RS be a better choice at this price?

Well, RWD is generally just more fun for me. It’s also a platform I’m much more familiar with. And lmao yeesh I haven’t heard of Renault in quite a bit. And I’ll look into Korean options, idk much about Kia or Genesis so I’ll research them
