I was at Lithia today picking up some touch-up paint... took a look at a black WRX 5-door that was on the lot. They're not as bad as the pictures make them out to be, but they're still hideously bad.

I'd love to swap the interior into an '07 though.

Oh, and the sticker on the WRX was $30,000... winter package, no leather, no sunroof. :roll:

Yah, Jeremy was letting us know what the stickers were on the new ones. Nick sounded awful curious about the Spec-B...

Yeah, the 08's are pretty sweet, but the 08 spec b MSRP is over 10k more than I paid for my GT.

No thanks.

Besides, the 07 spec b interior is better than the 08 :p

EDIT: pictures for posterity

07 top, 08 bottom

Next month in Frankfurt, we'll all get our first looks at Subaru's new WRC car in the form of the Subaru WRC Concept. The automaker will have driver Petter Solberg on hand for the introduction of the racer, which for all intents and purposes shows us what the next-gen Impreza WRC car will look like. It should also offer a very strong hint at the styling of the forthcoming Impreza STI. The STI grille, big wing and bulging bodywork do the new Impreza some good, as this looks worlds better and far more aggressive than the soft-looking standard car. Subaru has released no details other than the two images you see here. Rest assured, our Frankfurt team will bring you the full scoop from the floor in Germany next month.

Better.

knucklesplitter 2007-08-09 10:23 AM

Much better...

sperry 2007-08-09 10:42 AM

Why do the tail lights have to look so crappy? And the grill is still too busy.

JonnydaJibba 2007-08-09 10:45 AM

Not bad. I'd hit it.

WRX06TR 2007-08-09 10:50 AM

I have to agree with Scott, change the grill and the tail lights and I'd hit it...

Emboyoyo 2007-08-09 10:51 AM

I like it!! just not the tail lights...

Kevin M 2007-08-09 11:41 AM

I'm sure Rockblcker is already all over a 2008 making smoked taillight covers. I'm not a fan of mesh-style grills either, but if I ever hold out for a perfect car, I'll be riding the bus for a long time.

This was also posted on i-club. Guy said he took the picture at the X-games...

uNf. I didn't need that other kidney anyway...

JC 2007-08-12 08:47 AM

So I went to the Subaru WRX ride and drive yesterday ugh the new WRX is terrible. The interior is god awful. At the least the bugeye was only awful on the outside (well unless you count the driver). There is no chance in hell I will buy a new STi now.

Dean 2007-08-12 09:13 AM

Yeah, I think the value of the '04-'07s went up when they introduced the '08s

MPREZIV 2007-08-12 02:47 PM

Hell, I think my car's worth TWICE what I paid for it by now! :lol:

Me either. Looks okay, but pretty much like the ugly WRX with all the WRC bits on it.

Hopefully those fenders make it on the STi... but I doubt they'll be that flared on a production car. :(

I like it
