Again, I always sound like I'm bashing Subaru lately, but come on, don't most of us agree they are really going downhill lately?

I drive by new WRX's on the road now and most are woman or old guys. Um..............is that who that car fits now? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

wow that looks really good too bad its a Photoshoped.

If this article was true, correct me if I am wrong but this symbol "£" is a british pound. That article claims the new Subaru's will cost as much as £25k, which is $49,377 dollars. So the 2010 STi will cost $50 GRAND loaded up?

Either this article is lying or subaru can go F them selves.

We get cars WAY cheaper in the US; usually about half the price. So you can just trade the £ for the $ and get a ballpark.

Ok, so its a photoshop, but who cares? It looks way better than the original.

At this point, I've decided that if I want a new STI, I'm either going to buy the new toyobaru, or wait 5 years for the next gen impreza, cuz this new one sux.

Is this a toyota clone or a real STi with 2 doors (hopefully hatch)?

Looks like a Crossfire with a hood scoop and panel lines to me. While I do like it better than the new hatch it still sucks. Gimme a trunk, some shopping cart butt antlers, and....wait I already have that. Next.

I really take offense to someone stating that old guy's and women are driving Subarus. Well guess what my wife and I ,55 and 58 years of age,have been driving Subarus since 1982, which makes it 26 years now. Most likely you were not even born or were just in diapers. These vehicles are just not built for the younger crowd, they are built for loyal customers like myself. I have been driving performance cars since my teens in the 60's, and I love them. I will always drive some kind of Subaru, currently 07 Forester XT Sport, and 07 WRX Limited. Both have been tweeked with Cobb Accessports and exhaust and cold air intakes. They make excellent vehicles, and to even suggest they are just for a certain age group couldn't be more untrue. Get your head out of the clouds,there are many older people that love what Subaru has to offer, 4WD,safety,reliability, and yes performance. They are not only designed for young tuners, but for people that have been driving them for as long or longer then you can imagine, or even know about.

I think this might be the subaru version of the toyota/subaru collaboration FR coupe.

I hate to say that after some investigating, I found a picture of what appears to be the new coupe with cladding over it to help mask it's looks( next autos site), but after looking further, I found the car that appears to be underneath the cladding on Top speed .com. If you remove the cladding from the car, in the picture, it completely resembles the car shown on the Top Speed site. That same picture is also shown on the Africa chapter of the Subaru Club. It doesn't look anything like the picture shown above !!!!
