well from those REAL pictures now it doesnt look half bad.
except it doesn't look like a car I would want.

i'm gonna say it's just a wrx, basically the high end impreza like you would find in any other car manufacturer..you know what i mean?
the sti it seems will be the beast of them...sort of like the z06 corvetter compared to a c5.
the c5 is a wrx, the z06 is an sti for an analogy.

that is my understanding of what subaru is trying to achieve.
the thing that gets me on the new wrx though is that flashy grill and the the scoop looks very odd to me.

I can swap an 08 tail for a 05? I think you missed my point.

we don't even know what kind of tails the sti will have, so i wouldn't hold any ideas true.

but he's saying the base impreza is going to have normal red tails, the wrx will have those clear ones...
so you can swap.
