Subaru WRX vs. Volkswagen Golf R
From the start, the Subaru WRX garners attention. The WRX is an affordable and fun performance car. It offers a starting MSRP of $37,750, saving you thousands of dollars over the Golf R. The VW Golf R's starting MSRP of $49,455 forces you to dig much deeper into your pocket, stopping you from enjoying the roads unless you want to spend more than $11,000 just to climb behind the wheel.
The WRX offers a single engine option. Its 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® engine delivers up to 271 horsepower. The Golf R's 2.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers more power, sitting at 328 horsepower. However, the WRX's standard Symmetrical All-Wheel drive ensures you'll enjoy greater control, maximizing every ounce of that 271 horsepower, giving you a journey that you can depend on.
When it comes to safety, the WRX and Golf R have their own versions of features that are designed to keep you and your crew safe on the roads. The WRX's award-winning Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist technologies are the perfect wing-person to have in your corner when you're on the roads. Whether you're riding solo or with your crew, this vehicle ensures you'll have the confidence to tackle anything that comes your way. Get more out of every mile when you choose a WRX.
Subaru WRX vs. Honda Civic Type R
Your wallet matters. The WRX is more affordable than the Civic Type R. The WRX has a starting MSRP of $37,750, making it the obvious choice if you're comparing prices. The Honda Civic Type R's starting MSRP of $45,895 causes many shoppers to pause because they know they can enjoy a stellar journey while saving thousands of dollars when they choose the Subaru WRX over the Civic Type R.
The Civic Type R is track-tested but lacks one serious component that can make the difference between a safe and confident journey. The Type R doesn't offer all-wheel drive performance. However, the WRX does. The Subaru WRX features our standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, making it the obvious choice for those looking to get more out of their daily excursions. There is a greater sense of peace that comes when you know you have a performance car that can tackle the roads, no matter what Mother Nature throws your way. You'll get that and more when you choose a WRX from Ciocca Subaru of Allentown.
The WRX and Civic Type R grant access to infotainment and safety features that are designed to elevate your daily drives. The WRX offers a larger 11.6-inch touchscreen, while the Civic Type R's 9-inch touchscreen falls short. When you choose the WRX, you'll enjoy crisp graphics and a profound and richer infotainment experience that's unforgettable.
