As kids we used to create our own fantasies in our minds; Little planets where everything was possible for us and that nobody could get there to destroy them. Those places were sacred, and the only way how we could bring them to the reality was through our toys which, even if were our parents the ones who bought them, we had the authority to decide who and how could use them. The sense of belonging that we had with them was strong enough to establish bonds as solid as the ones that most of us would have for our own cars.

When Subaru and Toyota released the BRZ and the GT86 most of the gearheads hyped about this idea and felt excited for the fact of having the marvels of the subaru’s flat-four engine mixed with the charm of the rear wheel drive. Even if it did not have a turbo, or if it was not as powerful as some vehicles that could be found on the market, the idea of driving a car for fun rather than for being the first came back to the minds of many gearheads.

Some say: ”Keep your friends close and your enemies closer” . It is always important to learn about the flaws of your rivals to be capable to identify where can you attack him during a confrontation. And also if you know more about him you will be able to talk and give more solid arguments to say why you are better prepared than him. For that reason today I’ll talk about the Impreza’s always rival: The Mitsubishi Lancer.

As some might know Subaru stands out for their boxer engines that are installed in their flagship vehicles; The Impreza, the Legacy, the Outback, the Forester, the Tribeca, and their most recent creation the BRZ have one of those. However not every Subaru is the same. Each of the models mentioned above has different engines and depends on its version that the engine is designed for different purposes. They do not only change on the number of the cylinders as some have four cylinders and others have six.

Supercars and luxury vehicles are the kind of products that only a few with deep pockets can acquire. Usually this kind of customers do not feel happy with the cars as they are offered at the dealership, so they prefer to ask for the personalization options that might include special colours, dashboard trims, kind of leather and in some cases different performance packages. However there are also some clients who are even more eccentric and would rather pay more for products that nobody else can get.

I love the sound of a proper exhaust note when driving in a nice sportscar. However as a big fan of blues and classic rock, I think that going for a long roadtrip without listening some good themes will not give an ideal experience as we would expect.
