Front sway only, which tells me that last gen sways will fit the front. Front springs too, probably. The exhaust is plainly their R&D project piece, all welded together out of bits of stainless tube, probably using the last gen muffler and tip. S'okay, they wanted to get one out there ASAP, but I would not have expected them to drive it much. Also why-oh-WHY didn't they at least get the 'sport' grille, which looks eleventy billion times better than that chrome Chrysler knockoff???

i want my 3 minutes back for that video.

jonsti · 08-24-2007, 06:41 AM

omg that car is so ugly.

So, Cobb didn't learn their lesson about slamming a car with lowering springs? Those tires look like they rub (quite badly), too.

Meh, saw one yesterday. They certainly look better than the photos and the hatch is 100% more attractive than the sedan.

I don't care if COBB is tuning the new Camry five-door hatchback even though it utilizes Subaru's boxer. IMO- it still looks ugly.
BTW- I saw a truckload of poop the other day with Subaru badged all over the contents. I think Subaru is getting into wastedisposal.

I LOVE the new 08 hatches! That goes to say...I'm probably one of the few.

I'm guessing the "BOV" was being tested on an STI.

STi_1212 · 08-24-2007, 01:55 PM

I wish they had the car running but ill take what i can get. The car is really growing on me.

It looks better than a stock one, but anything does.

Spectrum24x · 08-24-2007, 02:36 PM

i know its been thouroughly discussed... but i hate them..
yet i must say +1 for sound clip

JD_STI · 08-24-2007, 02:41 PM

It doesn't look like there is much of an opening for a front mount.
