The second-generation 2005 Subaru Impreza is a compact car available in either sedan or wagon style. It offered four trim levels: 2.5 RS, WRX, WRX STi, and Outback Sport. Depending on the trim, engine options range from a 165-hp 2.5-liter flat-4 to a robust 300-hp 2.5-liter turbocharged flat-4 in the WRX STi model. All-wheel drive (AWD) is standard across all trims, a trademark of Subaru vehicles, and transmissions include a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic. The WRX STi model features a 6-speed manual transmission. Safety features include antilock brakes and front side airbags. The Impreza WRX came standard with automatic climate control and a six-speaker audio system. The 2005 model saw minor revisions in the headlight and taillight designs compared to its predecessor.
