Default Does the new WRX's have a petrol light!

Owned my 04 WRX for about 3months and have never seen the petrol light come on even when really low, so I was wondering if there is one, as I dont want to find out the hard way by running out of petrol.

Do you not have an owners manual??? The 2002 scoobies have a low petrol light but it does have to go below the E line before it comes on.

The owners manual is somewhere, I just thought it would be easier to ask as I always tend to fill up before it goes below the line. Just being lazy!

You havent managed to make your petrol light come on? Thats because youre driving like a big girl; now sort yourself out!

Theres no point driving fast, cause ive read that a standard WRX could beat a BMW M3 and Porsche 911 turbo and anything else which it comes up against, so ive nothing to prove you only have to read some of the threads to reliase that .
