WRX has always been an odd looking car I have always liked a bunch. This is no different....

I really like the new STI. I might even sell my IS and get one in two years.

They get worse and worse every year. My favorites are the 04-06? body styles.

It's nice to see one manufacturer serious about rally-ready production cars sold this side of the pond, rather than just Europe.

I would stunt a black STi in a second.

But WTF was Subaru thinking with the tail lights?

Awful design by Subaru. I really liked the 06 STi. But this one is just plain ugly. Looks like any other hatchback out there with alot more exterior accents from a distance.

If Subaru isnt going to release a non-hatchback sedan version, they are making a grave mistake. Personally I would never ever spend 30k on a hatchback
