Subaru

If you show up to enough track days, you are bound to run into some interesting kit cars. I’ve seen plenty of Cobra and Daytona replicas and ran into more than a few Exocet kit cars in my day.

Though it may not be the most original hue chosen for special edition cars, Subaru is coloring their BRZ and WRX STI similar to the Volvo Polestar cars and calling them The Series.Hyperblue because a cool color absolutely requires a cool name with no spaces.

If rally racing were on TV here in the US more frequently, I would watch a lot more of it. The sport gives me anxiety since the cars are so close to trees and certain death if drivers make a mistake.

Subaru recently unveiled the 2016 WRX and STI. The cars were all new last year so there aren’t any major changes. However, the company has added some new safety and technology features to the 2016 model.

When we first saw the Subaru BRZ, we all said. “That’s an awesome car, and such a great platform. The STI is going to be off the hook” (Because we’re all aliens that learned English via Arrested Development and we think people actually say “off the hook.”)

We’ve all been clamoring for a Subaru BRZ STI since we all initially calmed down after first seeing and driving the BRZ. It’s a great car on an incredible chassis that is crying out for more performance.

One of the things that draws many car guys and gals to particular cars is the way they sound. It’s hard to get the same sort of visceral sound from a 4-cylinder car that you can get from a big American V8.

Subaru makes several car models but only three of them have any interest for the car guy in me. They have the cool WRX, the BRZ, and the Crosstrek. I am not a SUV guy, but I really like the looks of the Crosstrek.

Subaru previously gave us just a brief glimpse of the virtual supercar they’ll be bringing to the world of Gran Turismo 6, the Subaru VIZIV GT Gran Turismo. The project was built by Subaru as part of the commemoration of Gran Turismo’s 15th anniversary – as a gift to the players of the renowned racing game.

Subaru will be joining the host of concept supercars that can be driven in the virtual world of Gran Turismo 6 with its VIZIV GT Gran Turismo. The project was built by Subaru as part of the commemoration of Gran Turismo’s 15th anniversary – as a gift to the players of the renowned racing game.

The all-new 2015 WRX STI is a heck of a road car and has already proven its world-class capability in rally events by setting a new Isle of Man lap record twice. Now you can win a limited Launch Edition model of this 2015 all-wheel drive performer courtesy of eBay and the Subaru Rally Team USA.

To promote the 2015 WRX STI in Spain, Subaru put together this promo spot featuring the rally-capable car tearing its way through dirt and gravel-covered roads, and doing a little Gymkhana on its way to pick up some bread so its driver can fix a nice breakfast for his girl.

We recently shared a highlight reel from driver Mark Higgins’ record setting 4-wheel lap of the Isle of Man TT Course, and now we have footage of the entire 19 minute, 15 second lap from the driver’s perspective.

Subaru rally driver Mark Higgins set the record for the fastest time around the Isle of Man 37.75-mile rally course with a time of just 19 minutes, 26 seconds, breaking his own record time he recorded in 2011.

Mark Higgins set a new record lap time for a four-wheel drive vehicle on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course just a couple days ago and now he’s already broken his own record. It’s actually the third time Higgins has set the record on the rally course, first doing it in 2011.
