It's a shame we haven't heard about people doing much with the four-door version of the current WRX.
I'm sure we'll being see more once the widened 2011 version hits the streets, but for now only a few brave souls have shown love to the Impreza sedan. This '09 WRX I spotted at the S3 meet in San Diego is owned by one of them.
The WRX leaves the showroom with an incredible horsepower/dollar ratio, and a few simple upgrades can bring the car up to the next level. First off, suspension – in this case Cusco coilovers.
A CS lip spoiler adds a bit of style to the front end.
The rear of the car looks all-business with a single exit Invidia exhaust. To me there's always something great about seeing dual exhaust tips replaced with a big single.
Then there's the wheels – 18×9 Enkei RPF1's in the sexy SBC finish. Also note the Brembo brakes up front.
Even with "narrow" bodywork, the owner of this car has shown that Impreza sedan can be just as cool, or even cooler than its hatchback cousins.

we dont even get them over here in the uk
A bit tame for my tastes but a nice clean looking car and great rims
saw this car in person
love the wheels!
nice looking car !!! i drive a wrx tr 06 fun awesome to work on subie keep up the good work !!!!!!!
Looks very nice actually. I'd take one!
They look eerily like a Hyundai Elantra at the rear. This could be why the fan base is a lot less.

MEH. fugly.
Well at least it doesn't look like a Saturn.
I really like it and this one looks really clean with just the lip and wheels, Awesome!!
Hey Mike
"It's a shame we haven't heard about people doing much with the four-door version of the current WRX"
I think you meant to say Sedan version of the current WRX. Both the Sedan and Hatchback are four-doors.
I hate the hatch but love the sedan versions.
win! way better than the hatch version
Just hit me and realized the hatch would be called a five door. my mistake.
we need the 4 door in the uk right now
this confirms why
that's just never going to be an impreza..

(I might be biased though..
Perfect example of badass daily driver. i loved it!
bleh. the 2011's arent that great either. i mean this looks nice for an '09 Corolla, but really the only good things about this car are the color, exhaust, and rims (which are becoming a bit played out and look wierd in 18" on here). no offense meant to the owner, im just not a fan. ill keep my 04.
MEH. FUGLY.
that sub is prety stelth
that wagon in the background looks sick! more pics of that?
Looks very tidy.
Cant wait for the update with the pumped gaurds to come out.

@kyteler: I say more Kia Rio-ish.
Very clean, nicely done!
like the spoiler at the front .. a nice touch.. Enkei rims look sweet.. quite a nice car all in all..
Francis beat me to it. I think they look a lot like the Rio
Invidia Exhaust is definately quality straight from Taiwan!
Hate the 08+
