Wow , thank god for Subie this will perform and the interior is sweet ....because the exterior is incredibly ugly . The 4-door non hatch looks much better , but it looks like a Saab ...not a Subaru .

I honestly don't see anything special about the interior.. Except for the huge LCD screen.. Door panels look very boring, and just see lots of boring plastic color bits everywhere else...

It looks like a Corolla with a hood scoop.

I can't say I'm a fan... I'll look again in 6 months and see if it has grown on me.

Even the last one was better than that. Suby is in a design crisis. Jeez...

That car has more MCE's than any other model on the market. At least they finally redesigned the whole thing finally.

The last redesign I liked...very agressive looking, and it worked well with the Impreza body. Looks like crap on everything else though...
New car looks like trash. Interior looks like it came out of a Aveo. That side crease down the side of the hatch reminds me of the new Elantra. Sedan deffinatly looks like a Corolla S with a hood scoop.

The Lancer looks 100x better with this new gen. It actualy looks like a hell of a nice compact car. Evo X is gunna beat the crap out of the Impreza.

That car has a lot of @ss on it, that's for sure. I used to think the WRX and the STI were great cars, sharp, sporty, etc. Now, I wouldn't poke one with a sharp stick.

I dare say that this will be a perfect example of free market failure. I can't imagine anyone that used to lust for a WRX, actually wanting to buy this thing.

The front looks like it was ripped from the Monaro, two generations ago.

It makes the current "horseshoe" grille version look good.
