Its not that. Its just for s stupid reason.

I'd buy the fuck out of a first gen Impreza - coupe. Which is impossible to find in Europe.
>They really would benefit from an I4
No, because that would be adding even more weight in front of the front axle (on AWD Subie's) causing even more understeer. Subaru should just get their shit together in terms of reliability and ease of maintenance. There's room to improve.

Why are rotards like this?

Aluminum block I4 isnt going to ruin subarus already terrible weight over the axles.

Honda civic. Everything about it would make it a great car for me. It fits all my requirements , except the stupid fan base makes it completely repulsive to me.

It's not about the weight per se, it's about where it's located. For that matter, every single Subaru flat four I can think of uses an aluminium block, which make them about as heavy as an I4 - maybe even lighter, because the block is shorter.
Anyways, location is more important. "Thanks" to Subaru's AWD system, engines are always in front of the front axle. The longer the engine, the further out if sticks. Simply put, a V or boxer is the shortest you can go(outside of a radial engine) compared to an inline (which is the longest layout). Therefore, V, flat or boxer would be better, since it keeps the CoG as far rearward as possible. It doesn't show up in axle weight measurements, but it does have effect on how much a car understeer. You can't (easily) have a V4 because of balance issues, so Subaru went with the flat four (and later flat six because it's easy to expand architecture that way).

First gen Imprezas are literally AWD Corollas without the reliability.
