Honda Civic Si (EM1) vs. Subaru Impreza 2.5RS
The EM1 Civic Si was all about lightweight fun and a high-revving VTEC engine. Subaru’s 2.5RS offered AWD traction but lacked the same rev-happy charm. On dry pavement, the Civic was the driver’s choice. The Impreza, however, had an edge in bad weather conditions and rally-inspired fun.
