2019 Subaru Impreza 2.0i Hatch

Well, I went ahead and traded in the Golf and got the closest thing to another wagon under $50k. Lol Surprisingly much roomier than the Golf even though I lose some cargo room and I’m loving it so far. I know I’ll regret it eventually but I went with Crystal Black Silica. I love how a black car looks when it’s cared for.

Car was actually in pretty good shape from the dealer. A couple of adhesive lines on the roof and a few sections of large but light scratches.

Did a Wolfgang waterless wash, followed by some spot claying with Chemical Guys blue (light) clay since the rest of the car was good and then did a quick one step with D166 using yellow foam Meguiars polishing pads. I only did one pass on each panel, just working a little longer on the scratched sections and I’d say it’s almost swirl free. I wasn’t going for perfect since I still want to see how soft the paint is with regular waterless washes. I’ll probably end up doing it again before winter and taking my time before I cover it with UFF.

I have to get some good pictures once I get a chance. Took these quickly and also didn't fully clean the windows since I ran out of time.

I also picked up a 2019 Impreza hatch this year. Looks great, nice work. They are nice everyday commuters with a 37mpg avg. The only thing that annoys me is the dirt that accumulates under the lip of the rear glass. Also get some touchup paint. The front nose and hood chips when a fly ass hits it.

Yeah I’m loving it so far. Interior isn’t as quality as the VW but overall it’s really solid for this class.

I know about the paint already. Lol My friend has a white 2016 WRX and the front is chipped all over so it’s really noticeable.
