So I have an annoyance with the 2006 pre face lift new Charger. That thing is one PITA to parallel park. First of all it won't really roll from what I think is torque like the Subaru does. Secondly the thing has massive blind spots especially that massive C-Pillar. Third, that steering wheel is really annoying and feels too big. Of course I'm used to the Impreza's more compact steering wheel but that massive wheel in the Charger is a bitch to make hard turns with. And its just an overall uncomfortable wheel for me.

Thankfully I don't have to take my drivers test in that and I will in the Subaru.

TL;DR, I dislike parking a Charger because of reasons and Impreza's are better.

and Impreza's are better.

Unless it has six letters on it, three of which could mean "sexually transmitted infection", no they're not.

Then unless the Charger has the 2.7L V6, I laugh at your opinion!

As someone who regularly parallel parks a Crossfire, if you can dream it you can do it. You just have to believe.

I don't really have a problem parking my 5.7 Charger, I just check all the mirrors before I start looking back and reversing. Im used to driving giant cars though had a Explorer and a Silverado before.

Small(ish) hatch is better to drive than a heavy muscle sedan from a meh Detroit company?

I'm shocked.

First time parking it too. And also very used to to sight lines in the Subaru and not the Charger.

My 5.7 is the same to me. Those mirrors become really handy. And from someone who works for a Chevy dealer...there are much harder cars to park (and no it's not any of the trucks): the Malibu's are the 2nd hardest with the absolute worst being the new Impalas, both of these cars (when not equipped with a backup camera) are absolutely miserable due to the trunk line coming up so high. In the new Impala, you can't even see most traffic's headlights when driving behind you.

Yeah it defently takes some time getting used to it. I like to reverse into parking spots though so I dont have to worry about people walking into my blind spots when I park head first.

Parking an Impreza is easy. Just get enough speed to get it airborne and it should fit in the trunk of the Charger. Then park the Charger wherever the heck you want. Get out and walk away. Pause and over your shoulder tell the instructor, "I park where I like! Because freedom from tyranny includes parallel parking spots. 'MURICA!"

An eagle will alight from the nearest church spire and leave the Impreza keys in your hand (because we beat them damn japs in WW2. May as well use their ingenuity on Henry Fords invention (don't get me started on how many times we whupped them Kraut NAZI bastards, let alone who invented the car. We all know ol Hank Ford did with Jesus' looking over his shoulder and God handing him tools))Do a 4 wheel burn out in the grass of the nearest town square with one arm raised out the window simultaneously giving a #1 finger, thumbs up, and THE finger, and yelling,"WOOOHOO! 'MURICA! FUCK YEAH!"

Then tear off into the sunset while listening to Aerosmith on 8 track.

scuse me, I need to go kill and/or hump sumthing, in no particular order. May even be the same thing, because 'MURICA.
