Maybe so. I don't it's that bad. The new headlights are better than the 04-05 and a million times better than the bugeye. Sorry Charlie. Still GC8 owns all. Oh yeah, they should have stuck w/ the 04-05 tail lights.

All in all, it excedes expectations in my opinion.
i totally agree. it doesnt look THAT bad, i guess its already starting to grown on me.

question: why go back to the 02-03 hoodscoop... is it more functional?

I'm just wondering after this 3rd large front end change on the same chasis are they going to change the back end? I'd like a new designed wing. The trunk and everything is the same, just the tail lights are different.

Not impressed at all.

Looks like they took a ford taurus and strapped a "bull horn" type grill to it. Imprezer is right... doesn't look nearly as aggressive as past models.

They should have spliced a Skyline with a GC8. Wide aggressive fenders and all the trimming. THEN we would have been in business and I would be buying one.

I mean you look at all the Impreza models and you have no idea where they're going and where they have been with the design. Goes from a boxy type design, to bugeyes, and to what we have currently. At least I can see how the BMW and other cars have matured over the years.

For those of you at Subaru that read this: Go back to your GC8 style roots!
