    Savagegeese is now what Car & Driver used to be, back when Car & Driver was a good rag that did independent testing and excellent writing. Well done, gents, very well done.

    I realy hope TuxMats realizes how valuable your advertising exposure is. Your guy's are genius.
  • @mitchotoole9876
    I ended up purchasing a WRX recently and even at the premium trim I don't know what car you can get an awd, turbo, 6 speed for under $35k. I paid $32.5k out the door for mine two months ago. I had my eye on a GR Corolla for a few months but the dealers wanted more than I was willing to pay. I am really happy with my WRX but I think they both seem like great cars overall.

    This is more or less exactly what Top Gear back in the 2000's said about the WRX vs the Evo, saying exactly what you're saying about the WRX about the WRX, and exactly what you're saying about the GR Corolla about the Evo

    Since I installed TuxMats in my vehicle, my T levels have increased by 50%. Thanks Mark!
  • @sparkcorolla2020
    the ad alone should be emmy nominated for best acting and cinematography 😭😭
  • O'Neil rally school up in NH just bought a new WRX and has been posting videos of them tearing up courses. It looks absurdly capable straight out of the box. Funnnn.
  • @vlj1133
    The geese taking flight as Mark reprised the Jimmy Page psychodelic sunglasses by the lake scene from The Song Remains the Same movie was just brutally clever.
  • @andrewmai1541
    I really appreciate the level of technical detail in this report. You guys just seem to get better and better.
  • @connorpolich5072
    Got a laugh out of Mark having to stop himself from saying “a more luxurious experience” when comparing interiors
  • @cmagnus7062
    Subaru with their whole "Hatchbacks don't sell so we won't make a hatchback WRX" is complete and utter bullshit. Every single car they sell other than the BRZ and Legacy (which is being discontinued this year) is a hatchback. Subaru needs to give the people what they want. The Impreza RS body with the WRX drivetrain.
  • @aroundomaha
    This is a comparison I had in my head for a practical daily for my BRZ. Awesome timing! Omg the Tuxmat placement rocks!
  • @asdpoi121
    And please do know that we appreciate and value the quality you bring and the time you invest on this.
  • Just wanted to thank you guys for the awesome videos. Keep up the amazing work!

    Respect brother, never seen actual stock stereo audio testing and Dyno testing AND! non pro vs pro driver track testing all in one performance car review! I've watched thousands of car reviews, as a mechanic these things interest me very much(performance machines of all kinds have pretty much been my life for 30yrs) and this is the most comprehensive and complete review I've ever seen! Props guys SUBSCRIBED!
