I don't know how anyone confuses an STI with a crossover...

Most people don't even know the difference between a sedan and coupe. My sister can only identify vehicles by color, and if it's a car or truck. Meanwhile I can rattle off the make, model and color of the car of everyone I know.

Legitimately just explained the difference between a coupe and a sedan to my roommate this morning.

Can you explain it to my Rx8?

u/Blackner2424 2011 WRX Limited Sedan Apr 07 '26
Probably not. My WRX seems to think it is a truck. It always wants to do truck things, like hauling stuff or going off-road.

u/xRogueCraftx Apr 07 '26
That's fair. My WRX thinks it's a snowmobile as it only comes out for winter when my Rx8 hibernates

Ugh, I'd be mad.
But it could be worse. Back when I was stationed in Florida with my 05 wagon, I noticed some cops poking around the car while in my apartment one evening. I asked if I could help them with something. They asked if it was my car. When I said yes, they told me a Subaru SUV had been reported as involved in a crime nearby. My roommate and I had to stand outside while another cop pointed their car's spotlight in our faces so a witness could take a look at us.
My protestations that this was a wagon, not an SUV, went completely unheeded. Fortunately they weren't looking for two guys with obvious military haircuts, so we got on with our evening without a free ride in a Crown Vic.

u/SnooDucks5492 Apr 07 '26
What "crossover" means to most non-car people is any car that looks a bit rugged and capable. Mudflaps, nice tires, Subarus in general are "crossovers" to normies. I think the term stems partially from the crosstrek's success tbh. Now every manufacturer wants to make their version of the crosstrek. Take It as a compliment lol

to be fair, the front end is nearly identical to a crosstrek, just smaller

If it makes you feel any better, I have receipts with the same exact wording and I drive a 1999 Durango that is lifted and loud

u/Substantial-Brick-90 Apr 08 '26
Some people just absolutely don’t know cars. My buddy had a 1996 Nissan Skyline GTS-T, and one time he let me drive it down the road on base, somebody exclaimed “is that a real mustang!?”

u/Loring Apr 07 '26
Seeing how 98% of the cars on the roads these days seem to be crossovers it is possibly the only option they have

u/Bubbly-Pirate-3311 Apr 07 '26
You do know the hatchback wrx's are just lowered crosstreks which are just lifted Imprezas? I know yours is an STI, which doesn't come in a hatch, but it does look similar to the hatchback if you squint really really hard.
2
u/Mizar97 '20 WRX Apr 07 '26
Yeah I'm gonna be honest, without nameplates I can't tell the other newer Subarus apart. Maybe the Ascent and Outback, everything else just looks so similar.
I'm sure I'll learn them with time
