In a market where the average new car price is somewhere in the upper troposphere, it is gratifying to know shoppers can still purchase a well-equipped all-wheel drive vehicle for $24,665 including destination.

This is a Subaru WRX. If you’ve been anywhere near the base car (as a WRX buyer, at least) the stereotype says you’ll already be plotting Tien coilovers with spring rates similar to diamonds on the Mohs Hardness Scale, a nicer exhaust, and some Brembos pinching brake discs so big you could inscribe a lengthy epitaph to the STI on them. 

Today there's a feisty Subaru in my driveway -- the 2024 Subaru WRX TR.

Today we bring you a pretty mainstream car -- it's a clean-looking 2012 Subaru Outback that is also a bit high mileage.

Yes, it is the quickest and fastest WRX race car to date from Subaru Motorsports USA. No, you can’t buy one.

Last week we brought you news that Fiat is bringing gas back -- and we also discussed Toyota, Mazda, and Subaru's decision to back off from full electrification.

Meanwhile, Nissan says it won't invest in any new gas engines.

What's going on?

Toyota, Mazda, and Subaru conducted a press event designed to explain why they’re walking away from full-blown electrification. While this is something numerous automakers have done in recent months, the “Multipathway Workshop” faced a predictable amount of criticism from EV acolytes.
