Traded my '15 STI for a Tesla Model 3. Dumbest move of my adult life. I really enjoyed my '15 STI and drove her spiritedly for 50,000 amazing miles and with zero issues. I think I'll hold out till next year for the redesign. I sincerely hope the STI will remain true to its roots. Edit: Didn't wait till next year. Proudly sold my Tesla for a '20 STI. Too much uncertainty with what's coming for STI. Edit again: WOW! Am I happy I followed my heart and bought the 2020 STI. The end of STI as we know it has arrived folks... If there is a car you're on the fence of buying, don't delay. EV generation is upon us and the days of ICE vehicles are numbered. Enjoy them while you can! Life is too short to sacrifice your happiness...

For as much shit I used to talk about the STI, after i had traded my STI in for a F80 M3, I still find myself tempted to go back to the STI. Power aside, the refined EJ motor, 6 speed, true AWD, it's simplicity, raw driving experience, driver focused feeling and it's hydraulic steering really brings back my joy and experience with the early 2000s late 90s JDM cars/ driving style; which is nearly impossible to find now in modern cars today, except with the STI. This cars simplicity and raw driving experience are going to be missed now that everything is electronic, robing us of what true driving experience is about. We may not see it right now but give it time, all of us who complained about the STI being "old" and "needs modern updates/ tech" will eventually realize the "old" & "outdated" feeling is what true drivers will crave, not a car that does the driving for us with its 20+ ECUs. We will all realize we were wrong for hating on the current STI and resent what we complained about. Once this old school STI is gone, it will take time for us to realize and wish there was still a driver focused sports car that retained that "old" 90s/ early 2000s JDM driving experience and style.

This is one of the best review videos I've seen. Clean, simple, and to the point.

"I just drew an EJ engine".... the OMG that intro, LMAO

I think it’s so interesting how personal preference plays such a big role on someone’s opinion over a car. While some say this car isn’t as engaging and fun as the type r or focus rs, many reviewers in England for example said the sti is such a characterful and analog experience and it’s amazing on back roads..... that’s why it’s important to really test drive a car before you choose one, that’s the best way to see what you like Great video though guys! Like always!

This is so classic, watching Throttle House and Engineering Explained collaboration just made me so giddy inside... like a little kid watching a favorite cartoon on Saturday morning so many years ago. Well done guys!

BEST INTRO YET. Love Engineering Explained.

At this point I’m so done typing comments about how good your intros are because I know I will run out of creative praises to say before you guys run out of creative intro ideas. You win. That tho definitely is the kinda classroom, classmates and professor I wish I had in college

This has been my fave channel for a few months now. Keep it up guys!

This video is so enjoyable that I keep coming back to it over and over again

Loved the intro Loved the STI review Adored the outro. You guys are kick Grass!

You guys are killing these intros! Well done! I have a 2012 STI hatch - which has been a great car, especially in the winter. I knew when I bought it new back then that the engine was old. It's 7 years later and not much has changed there. Subaru needs to seriously up the power. 80 more hp would be good for a start. Better fuel economy would be nice too.

Love my 2020 STI. Here in Canada I was driving up quite a steep hill on a snowy day, no one was able to go up the hill but me. I still can't beleive how amazing the traction is. Always loved subies, i still cant beleive i finally bought one 😁

Loving the collabs these days fellas. Keep up the great work.

I bought the 2015 when it first came out. Track days, snow days, long road trips, and 80k trouble free miles. Family car. Track Car. Commuter car. U name it, this car does it. It’s a do all car. My son took it to college and he’s enjoying it as his daily driver. I love it !

I bought the '19 in March and adore it. Your review is spot on! it is a modern take on what made me love driving in the 90's and is a jack of all trades. but...It does have a lot of road noise that needs to be droned out with an aftermarket exhaust so you enjoy the deafening roar. Well done gents!

How's the car doing now? I got my '19 right at the end of 2020 with 9400 mi on the clock. I'm at 38k now, and it's still doing great. Upgraded the brake pads, put Motul gear oil in the trans and diffs, tires, and oil changes every 3-4k. And the necessary muffler delete :)

This is an amazing car for the winter. I bought one 4 years ago. It puts a smile on my face every time. Simply awesome. It does what you ask of it. Control with confidence.

Is it just me or the video quality has improved dramatically? Esp the shots from inside the car. The scenery outside almost feels surreal! As always, great vid guys!

I love the banter they have when they're in the car together!

When manual transmissions are a dying breed there's a special place in my heart for the wrx/sti, just cannot bring myself to dump all that money into such an old design. I'm holding out hope that 2021 refresh will be the one for me.

Just picked up a 2019 STI back in July (ordered it in late April), and I love it. Been wanting one ever since they debuted in North America, and finally went ahead and grabbed one this year. Was debating waiting for the refresh, but since just about everything about is is a big unknown at this point, I went ahead and picked up the current generation. Would feel uncomfortable buying the first few years of a STI with a new engine, and on a new platform, anyway. Better to wait a few years to see what kind of problems pop up, and hopefully give Subaru time to address any issues.

Some cars in that price range you mentioned like the Merc are just a whole different audience though. The driving experience is very numb in those cars, the WRX has always been a more raw experience. And even though these new ones are far more refined than what they used to be, they seem almost deliberately less so than their competition. And that's OK.
