The Ascent comes loaded with cool features and innovative twists, and it finally brings Subaru’s A-game to the contest.

Based on how Subaru is building and pricing the Specia.Gray edition WRX and STI, they’re spec’d to be the ultimate driver’s car for under $40,000.

I polled most of the crew here for their picks and then prodded for extra justification to back up their (incorrect) opinions.

Hood scoops and air ducts are where form and function usually butt heads. But if done right, a simple air intake can be a work of art.

All the classic WRX hallmarks are there, with some extra-important details.

Subaru wants in on the three-row SUV game.

The V8 now competes against twin-turbo V6s and tuned up four-cylinders that get markedly better efficiency.

Bring the office party, no matter what your title.

Today’s sport wagon is a far cry from Mom’s old Buick Roadmaster, and these five have enough stylized attitude to preserve your self-respect.

When purchasing a new car, crash safety ratings tend to fall below other priorities like style, fuel economy, performance, amenities, cost and even brand loyalty. That’s unfortunate, since more than a handful of cars will consistently fail to perform well in the one situation we all hope to avoid: a serious accident.

Since it arrived onto North American shores in 2002 the Subaru WRX has been making the case for unadulterated fun, one four-wheel drift at a time. Vehicles and our expectations of them however, have changed a lot over the last 13 model years.

The Subaru Impreza WRX (nicknamed “Rex” by loyalists) has a cult following to almost rival the Beatles (smaller and younger, but just as fanatic). New iterations or improvements often make fan clubs and enthusiasts both skeptical and nervous; you can’t mess with perfection, and the Subaru Impreza WRX is pretty close.

Just about every morning, before our cup of joe, we slap ourselves as a reminder of how lucky we are to drive some of the best cars in the world and get paid for it. 2013 was another year of stupendous privileges, with wheel time in Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Land Rovers, Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, Porsches, Jaguars, Mercedes-Benzes, Audis, BMWs, Aston Martins and more.

Japanese cars have long been the epitome of reliability and trustworthiness, but they haven’t always been beautiful to look at. Things have changed with the current generation of Japanese cars, which boast great design and more personality than ever, along with driving dynamics that can rival (and even best) the Germans in some cases.

You’re an hour late to the Christmas get-together, but not because that red velvet blazer you love so much is nowhere to be found. No, instead you’re trapped in a snowdrift in your vintage AMC Gremlin.

The venerable station is no longer what it was: a dowdy people hauler that oftentimes “sported” less than favorable designs (faux wood paneling, anyone?). And though the American populace now prefers cross-overs, station wagons still survive in the domestic automotive landscape.

In the States, we know that size still matters. And just like dinner portions, Americans love their bigger cars and trucks.
