• The Subaru WRX followers, with a penchant for unique naming of the WRX, followed on from the "bugeye" model by naming the 2004 facelift as the "blobeye," and two years later, the "hawkeye" refresh was introduced. 
• Based on the fourth generation Impreza for 2015. The WRX was fitted with a higher output engine, firmer sports-orientated suspension, larger brakes, resculpted body panels, lowered ride height and sportier larger intakes.
