A sports car shouldn't be all about numbers, right? It should be just as much about those incalculable driving dynamics -- the feeling you get when you put the pedal to the metal and hug turns like you haven't seen them in years. That's what Subaru believes, anyway, with the 2015 Subaru BRZ.

Its modest horsepower and torque aren't what puts it on the radar of sports-car purists; its engagement and everyday drivability certainly are what does it. And we wouldn't write off numbers completely with the BRZ, of course, because it's exceptionally efficient for…

Being described as "driver-centric" may be an insult for a family car, but it's the highest compliment for a performance coupe. The 2015 Subaru BRZ certainly prioritizes the needs (and wants) of the driver -- and in more ways than one.

It's powerful and responsive with telepathic steering and firm brakes, and even the interior has its sights set on catering to the pilot. Controls are large and gauges are simplistically and clearly designed, and the center stack is intuitive organized for ease of use. There are three BRZ trim levels, but the base model already comes very well-equipped…

The Subaru XV Crosstrek is the latest model to receive a modern makeover for the upcoming model year. It covers everything from its front fascia to its safety systems -- from fun to functional -- and we think these nips and tucks are going to go over really well with crossover drivers here in the Milford, CT area.

The 2016 Crosstrek boasts a striking new headlight design as well as a modified grille and bumper. Beyond the aesthetics, the new Crosstrek offers a suite of driver assistance technologies like blind spot detection and rear cross traffic alert on Limited and Hybrid Touring…

Throughout New England, drivers love having a vehicle that is as unique as they are. Whether crushing off-road terrain on the many trails of the region, or simply enjoying a cruise throughout Milford, CT, drivers appreciate standing out amongst a sea of similar vehicles. Subaru models provide a great way to capitalize on all of the offerings of the diverse region and with genuine Subaru parts and accessories, drivers are able to outfit the vehicle for their chosen lifestyles and adventures.

The search for more power and control will inevitably lead drivers to the Subaru WRX. The most impressive vehicle in the rally racing circuit and an icon on the roads, the WRX is truly a one-one-of-a-kind vehicle. Powered by a turbocharged engine capable of immense power, combined with the legendary control of the Subaru Symmetrical AWD system, the newest WRX provides drivers with the means to fully enjoy their time on the roads or trails of Southern New England.

Few cars come with as impressive legacy as the Subaru WRX. Known for its incredible performance on rally circuits all over the world, the Subaru WRX is also known for transferring this experience to the roads we drive on every day, providing automotive thrills to all who site behind the wheel. The performance of the Subaru WRX recently dominated the New England Forest Rally 2015, where it eventually won the rally, its fifth-consecutive championship title.

In a recent video, we are able to ride along with the Subaru Rally Team USA car as it cruises through the third stage of…

When automakers set out to design a new vehicle, they do so with the intent that the vehicle will serve its purpose for many years to come. Unfortunately this hope doesn't always become a reality, unless of course the vehicle in question is a Subaru model. Notoriously reliable vehicles like the Subaru Forester have proven to be capable of lasting decades with the proper care and maintenance. Think of the many memories which could…

When it comes to high-performance success, few automakers can rival that of Subaru and the motorsports division, STI. With a massive fan base and widespread success in a variety of motorsports, the Subaru STI vehicles have carved out an identity all their own. Responsible for the success of the Subaru WRX and the WRX STI, the performance division of Subaru has an established identity of aggressive and reliable performance.

One needs only to look at…
