Fifth Gear: Volkswagen Golf R vs. Subaru WRX STi


The Subaru is not a Japanese Beetle. At 70 MPH it doesn't even breathe hard.

Do you hear vibrations? We don't. Horizontally-opposed engine at work. Quiet. 
Do you have front-wheel drive? We do. Our front-wheel drive makes safety corners, surefoot curves, holds the road, zips through ice or snow. Power to the front wheels! 
Turning circle. Just 31.5  easy little feet. Feet smaller than you-know-whose. 
Inboard brakes.   We've taken our front brakes out of the wheels which gives you 1: a remarkable stable ride with 2: marvelously light-handed steering. 
Hey, racing fans. Rack-and-pinion steering. 
2 doors not enough? For about $100 more, we can also give you 4. 
Look. No fan, no fan belt. Listen. No fan noise. Learn. It takes a lot of horses to drive the fan. We use ours to drive the car. 
 How do we keep it cool? With two radiators, not one. And a clever thermostatic device that automatically takes over when the going gets hot. 
Where's the spare? With the jack and the engine locked under the hood. Doesn't everybody? 
  6-footer leg-room up front. And nobody has to ride side-saddle in back. 
Oh, my aching back? Not in our Subaru. An orthopedist designed our seats. Anatomical, adjustable, and ahhh, reclining. 
What? Your back windows don't open? Ours do. 
You know what's missing? That hump in the floor, thank goodness. 
On, the room in the trunk; it boggles the mind. How do you like 6 full sets of golf-clubs plus 3 hefty suitcases? We like 48 soccer balls. 
THE WHAT? 
Independent suspension, all 4 wheels. Takes the ump out of bump, even in back. 
The price? $1898.40* and not stripped down, but loaded with the options most people buy. *Total suggested retail price. Local taxes, dealer prep, inland freight, etc., extra. 
THE SUBARU. 
The Subaru is not a Japanese Beetle. 
At 70 mph it doesn't even breathe hard.
