HAHAHA PRICELESS!!! this is a post that was in that thread!!

"My [email protected]@@ check engine light came on at 100 miles or so. This is utter bullsh_t! I traded in my Honda CRV for a new 2.5 RS and I get this! The Honda didnt give me one problem!"

LOL

That does suck though... some people admitted to filling up their gas tanks while the car was running.. and then complain about a CEL came on for evap emmissions. Just about all the people in that thread had alignment problems to.

hopefully the evo will be a bit better.
Damn, this sucks.

My friend is getting one before the summer so he can mess with it before he has to deal with the MN winters.

One day I give my boy the link with the Doc praising the WRX (which completely had him sold, and today I have to send him this one.

Yeah, that would be unexceptable. Noises I can live with but engine and electrical problems are a different story. Why did they have to make the WRX a Low Emissions Vehicle? The people who will buy this car are after performance no doubt and I don't think they are tree huggers, so why make it a LEV.

On the WRX board there are lots of talk comparing it against the Prelude, good to see they are thinking of us heehhe

I think the CE Light indicates the hamster in that tiny turbo needs more pellets

I think I'm gonna have to go test drive one, if for no other reason than to act our a little aggression today.

Just saw a 50-something guy in a blue WRX wagon.

I hope this doesn't become a trend.
Danny I see you're lurkin the i-club board too eh? hehe i saw that post and makes me want to wait till early next year or late this year to look at the WRX as an optional car. What other boards are there?
Just read all of those post...whewwww.

For now the WRX is OUT!
What would you expect from a car the has 3 cats on it???

I drove one, I wasnt impressed at all, alot of lag on such a baby turbo...

Nice to live in an area with no emissions tests or vehicle inspections. If I had a WRX I'd rip all the cats off the thing.

Yeah, I am curious about this new nihon import. I guess it is hip and new that is all, they styling doesn't appeal but the performance does. I'll go test drive it to see what I am missing out on ehehe, in the mean time hope those guys with the new WRX figure that problem out.
Can we please take all this WRX talk off the prelude board? It's getting annoying.
