In the bifurcated world of Subaru, the WRX STI is Mr. Hyde to the standard Impreza's Dr. Jekyll. You'll never confuse the two: With its wide stance, flared fenders, and gargantuan deck spoiler, the WRX STI could scare Vincent Price. (WRX refers to "World Rally Competition;" STI stands for "Subaru Technica International") The turbocharged 2.5 liter, four-cylinder engine puts out a remarkable 305 hp and launches this screamer to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. The fun starts at $37,445.
