I was going to trade it in... - Toyota Yaris Forums

why? · 02-25-2013, 05:22 PM

A Subaru WRX is a good deal, the STi though is a bit overweight and overpriced. BRZ is awesome too. I have been a huge Subaru fan for a long time, the fact that everything comes with AWD is a gigantic plus for me. I wish more manufacturers would do that.

I will say the new CVT's are amazing. My mother has a 2003 Murano, and It is great to drive. The original transmission lasted 260,000 miles or so, and getting another one actually was about the same as any other automatic. The gas mileage on the car is not really good, but she has a lead foot, and it is a gigantic and powerful engine.

With the new transmissions and electronics coming, you could even program in how good you want your gas mileage. Like the throttle controllers you can buy, but straight from the factory, and able to limit power and acceleration, or make it better.
