eh , I want to like it. but 2 thumbs down. maybe when i see one in person, like with the 07 front grill, although i liked the new grill look a bit before seeing it in person.
With out knowing about any spec changes, I liked last years Subaru WRC car better , guess they didn't though ![]() |

I don't dislike the look outright. . . I think both hatch and sedan actually look ok. I miss the flared fenders, though. The new fenders are too plain. At any rate, new and different are always odd at first. I'm sure people were complaining (and some still are ![]()

Someone photoshopped the uprights on either side of the grille mesh body color and the mesh black on Nasioc. I for one thought it was a dramatic improvement.
Lots of the first Motor trend photos made some of the exterior trim appear too chrome-y. The more photos I see, the more I like. When the 06 came out I felt much the same as now, saw some in person, then came around very quickly and began appreciating it. Now I have an 06 and think it looks great.

Ok, I just read the Evo portion of the article (only had time to read the STI portion earlier). As before, the Evo sounds more advanced but the STI has the benefit of the 2.5L and DCCD (which is more of a cool factor item than a performance item). If it looks like the pic above, I'll be happy. I'd prefer a wagon, but the 5 door is close enough. But they said an Evo hatch might be in the works too...the STI vs Evo question has never been easy...that semi-automatic tranny in the Evo sounds pretty sweet. Newer technology is always kind of scary though.

Unless the WRC changes its rules to allow >2.0L, yeah probably. Plus there's an additional tax in Japan on cars with larger motors.

I like the new STI. I think the new WRX looks way to docile and has lost much of its character but the new STI doesnt look to bad. |
