Plenty of new cars claim to be fun. The 2026 Subaru WRX tS is one of the few that backs it up with a turbocharged boxer, a 6-speed manual and all-wheel drive. The Subaru WRX Dream Giveaway is putting a brand-new one in somebody's driveway, and Motorious readers can enter here with the promo code MOTORIOUS59 already applied.
A Daily Driver With a Performance Attitude
This is Giveaway No. 219, part of the Daily Driver Series, and the car is finished in Ignition Red with Crystal Black Silica exterior accents. It rides on 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, and the steering is quick-ratio, which is exactly what you want in a compact sports sedan.
Inside, the tS gets Recaro performance front seats trimmed in Ultrasuede, black upholstery with blue accents, an STI short-throw shifter and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. Drive Mode Select lets you change the car's personality depending on whether you're commuting or chasing a good road.
Turbocharged Boxer, Manual Gearbox, AWD
Power comes from Subaru's 2.4-liter turbocharged BOXER four-cylinder, rated at 271 horsepower and sent through a 6-speed manual transmission. Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive handles the traction, which matters as the weather turns cold. Stopping duty goes to a Brembo system with six-piston front and two-piston rear calipers.
A manual-equipped, all-wheel-drive turbo sedan with Brembos is a short list these days, and the WRX tS sits near the top of it. If you've been waiting for the right excuse to get in on this giveaway, this is a pretty good one. Subaru fans who like the brand's quirkier side might also enjoy our look at the Porsche-styled Legacy B4 Blitzen or the forgotten Subaru SVX.
