2016 Subaru WRX Performance and Engine

Turbocharged Power and AWD Confidence

Under the hood sits Subaru's FA20DIT engine — a 2.0-liter turbocharged horizontally-opposed four-cylinder producing 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a precise 6-speed manual transmission and Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system, this WRX delivers the kind of connected, confidence-inspiring performance that made the nameplate legendary. The AWD system provides genuine traction in all conditions, not just the kind that only activates when things go wrong. For Riverside County drivers who tackle mountain routes, canyon roads near the Inland Empire, or just want assured grip on freeway on-ramps, the WRX delivers in a way few cars at this price point can match.

What the 6-Speed Manual Means for You

The 6-speed manual transmission is a core part of the WRX experience. It offers short, precise throws and a clutch engagement that rewards skilled drivers. If you're buying a WRX, this is the transmission you want — it keeps you fully in command of all 268 horsepower, and it's a big reason why WRX enthusiasts are so passionate about the platform.

Subaru WRX Limited Features and Interior

What the Limited Trim Adds

The Limited trim elevates the WRX significantly over the base model. Expect features including heated front seats, a leather-wrapped interior, keyless access with push-button start, and upgraded audio. The WRX Limited also includes the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity, making it genuinely practical for everyday use. The sport seats provide excellent lateral support during spirited driving without punishing you on a long commute — a balance Subaru engineers clearly worked hard to achieve.

Practicality You Wouldn't Expect

The WRX sedan body style gives you a real trunk and a true back seat — this isn't a two-seater sports car that sacrifices usability. It's a four-door performance vehicle you can use as a primary car, drive to work Monday through Friday, and still look forward to every single morning.

Subaru WRX Reliability and Ownership

The WRX has a strong reputation for durability when properly maintained. Subaru's turbocharged FA20DIT engine responds well to regular oil changes — ideally every 5,000 miles or less with full synthetic oil — and owners who follow the maintenance schedule are routinely rewarded with high-mileage, trouble-free ownership. The AWD system is largely maintenance-free under normal driving. Common ownership advice includes watching coolant levels, keeping up with the brake fluid, and ensuring the differential fluid is fresh. At 96,000 miles, this WRX has plenty of life ahead of it. It's the kind of car that earns enthusiast loyalty for a reason.
