We know what the 2012 models of the WRX and STi will look like... exactly the same as they currently do.

You know what I mean; I meant the next generation based on the new chassis.

Different Nav system, too if you want to be picky (among other small things). The body will be the same. Which means the car will look the same. Small details like the headlight housings are meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

I think the new tailight/bumper treatment give a whole new meaning to the term "butt-ugly" and the nose looks like a chevy cobalt or some crappy thing.
Oh well, styling has never been Subaru's strong suit anyway.

I'm at Stevens Creek Subaru right now. The light is bad so I can't take pictures. If you want to see it, just imagine the new Outback that's been shrunk, literally.

I think it looks good. Perhaps, sti on this model will look great. But current STI needs more power. 300hp is not much anymore in today's standard for top performance model.
