If you thought the Subaru WRX reached the pinnacle of affordable performance with the 2017 model, you’re not alone. Many Subaru lovers in around Rockville, MD, including yours truly, didn’t think this spectacular sedan could get any better. But guess what? It has, and you’ll be able to test drive a 2018 Subaru WRX near Washington, D.C. when it hits Herb Gordon Subaru this spring.
As many of you know, this model comes in two versions: the Subaru WRX and the Subaru WRX STI, which jacks up performance another notch or two. Both models will feature new front styling for an even more formidable appearance, and a refined suspension that’s well-tuned for optimum handling and comfort. The new front end’s biggest addition is a revised grille with a larger lower opening, and the new suspension tuning pertains to the 2018 Subaru WRX model’s front and rear ends. And when you factor in the upgrades that have been made to this model’s six-speed manual transmission, including a new synchro design and reduced friction, you have a sedan that really sizzles.
Specific to the 2018 Subaru WRX STI, this year marks the first time that 19-inch wheels are available to prospective Bethesda, MD Subaru buyers. These wheels boast a sweet-looking Y-shaped spoke design, along with special tires that up this model’s already impeccable cornering. And in addition to its new wheels, the 2018 Subaru WRX STI gets upgraded Brembo brakes with yellow-painted calipers. These brakes are specially designed for better feel, improved heat dissipation, and better fade resistance.
There are several other enhancements to look forward to on the 2018 Subaru WRX, and we’d love to tell you about them at our Subaru car dealership serving Bethesda, MD. Visit us today and put your name on the list for this phenomenal performance sedan!
