Subaru Impreza Version 9 is an “in” thing amongst Malaysian car enthusiasts. Matching the carbon fibre laden exterior of this fine machine are the carbon fibre panels for the dashboard, power window switch trimmings and the door handles in the interior. Besides the sweet notes from the exhaust system, this car also has a completely decked out Kenwood in-car entertainment system to entertain the driver. Installed on top of the dashboard is a full array of Defi gauges, giving the driver a full spectrum of information on his engine’s performance. Finally, as a guard against the build-up of sludge inside the turbocharger due to switching it off while hot, an A’PEXi turbo timer is installed. The Subaru Impreza’s popularity is due to its balance in term of performance and reliability – a mix that not many high performance cars can boast of having.
