From the exterior this model is easily recognisable with the huge rear spoiler, along with larger Brembo brakes, ventilated and drilled front and rear discs and 19 inch alloy wheels.

Inside the tS Spec B has Recaro sports seats, with electronic adjustment for the driver, heated front seats as well as outer rear seats,

Performance additions include Drive Mode select for the manual. This includes electronically adjustable dampers, enabling drivers to customise their driving dynamics for a more personalised experience.

There is a new 12.3-inch full LCD instrument cluster, NEW Emergency Driving Stop System (EDSS), and a great feeling leather steering wheel with STI logo.

But the best feature is the sports exhaust that delivers a delicious burble from the turbo boxer engine.

The Subaru WRX has long been a sports car performance icon, and even though the competition has caught up and sometimes bettered it, there is an amazing amount of popularity amongst the public for this car.

But the WRX at heart is a driver car. The boxer engine delivers. It’s  not outright fast from a standstill, but:

Through the gears on a windy back road there are few cars that deliver as much excitement

and driver engagement as the WRX Ts Spec B.

In short it was a blast to drive.

The post Subaru WRX Club Spec now available appeared first on Motoring Minute.

I got to drive some historic Subaru models at a drive day at a private track a few weeks ago and I have to say it was a lot of fun.

Models included a 1995 SVX coupe with its sensuous styling and 3.3L engine. A 1998 Outback which changed the face of SUVs forever.

Of course, there was the iconic 1992 Brumby Ute as well as an early model Forester.

These were mixed with several WRX and WRX STi models ranging from a 2000 model through the last 2021 WRX STi model.

And just to add to the fun there were a few BRZ coupes as well.

Having a look back drive day is refreshing. It allows us to drive some classics as well as appreciating all the technological advancements. Mind you some of the earlier models were pure fun to drive.

Its also pleasing to see just how popular and loved the Brumby Ute is.

Thank you, Subaru.
