Wow, the profile is almost a direct knock-off of the mazda 3. I'm even more stoked that i have an '05 (ftmfw,bigatches!).

Chopped from the spied pic with cladding. Check angles and compare details like grill and rear bumper reflectors.

Lets wait til April 5th!!!

I admit that owners dont like the next year model and like theirs better. However, this is totally different. Unless the sti is much different which based on prior history it should have the overall appearance, Subaru might see their tuner market disappear forever.

Honestly, who designed this? They reuined the car with the design and lowered their interior quality to that of the new lancer. Doesnt it look extremely similar to the new lancer interior?

At least we know we want the current model and dont have to ask ourselves "should I wait for next year?" The answer is NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For you maybe, you don't speak for all of us. I think it will do well in the WRC and is a superior platform than the previous gen. And it looks just fine too.

Learned the pulse of the people with a sum total of 33 posts, huh? Impressive.

Fact is, for the WRC, the car is better; the platform is better; the suspension is worlds better; and on top of all that, the looks are not half bad. It's a superior car in nearly every respect.

I'm waiting for April 5th but if this is what we get I give up. I agree it falls in line with other new rally designs but I see Evo sales going a lot higher. Now if you'll excuse me I gonna go light some candles around my 06 and beg forgiveness from the rally gods for Mazbaru's transgretions.
