The 2015 Subaru WRX has fielded an unworldly amount of harsh criticism, in my humble opinion. Since the 2015 model year product debuted at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, it seems like the car has taken an unfair beating — in this writer's opinion.
Folks have critiqued it's look, which I happen to like, and they have also thrown eggs at the company's decision to offer a CVT transmission. Considering a lot of automakers are abandoning shift-it-yourself 'boxes, I find this peculiar that people are bashing Subaru as they still offer a standard anyhow.
From what I've seen though, the real automotive tastemakers have been weighing in and setting the record straight.
