Hi I had this in another post ( But it was off the topic there sorry for the copy)
I'm in Australia
Anyway I was looking for a car and had the choice between a Imprezza ( the base model) which had sort of the same specs as the lancer ... 94kw ( same as the lancer) same suspension, sohc, 2.0ltr, ABS, the main difference AWD in the sub but the lancer had sportstronic shifting standard ( I would have had to get a auto anyway.... ) well I was told I should have gotton the imprezza.... They seemed the same power wise I prefured the look of the new lancer heaps more!!! Anyway just wondering what u all thought.

 

Lancer

 

for some reason, i think you may be a biased result, this is a lancer forums.






get the lancer man, no question about it

 

Yep

 

hehe I just wanted to reasure myself I got the lancer just wanted to make sure it was the right choice..... Ahh well I love it so that's all that matters

 

they had the same power? what was the engine in the base model impreza? i thought they had at LEAST the ej25's...

There are 1.8L, 2.0L and 2.2L EJ engines overseas. I'm not sure the displacement for the Aussie's base model scooby.

I just don't like how the scooby look, with most of the specs being the same, go for the Lancer

 

here are the australian Imprezza RX specs
