wow, aren't you guys the fashion police? you should pull him over!
OMHO I think the fact that there is a diversity of personal taste is great, otherwise there would simply be just one way to do things and everything would look the same. If his car looks different, then that only serves to make yours different from his. I think it would be worse if his looked exactly like someone else's, that ironically thinks this car is ugly, but secretly wouldn't like it very much either if it looked identical to theirs.

Those rims are not cheap and they're ugly as hell. He's clearly got some dough invested in his car... notice the JDM fogs and most likely coil overs to get the car to sit like that on what might be 19's. UGLY! Don't like the weird green thing in the grill. Don't like carbon fiber hoods with stock painted scoops. Don't really care for smoked tail lights unless the rest of the car is dark and then only VERY little. Just don't like the car. That would be my opinion.
I like the fact people do stuff differently but different doesn't mean looks good.
Nice bikes though... super nice bikes. (closer to $4-5k not 2k)

yeah I got to hand it to them for having very nice bikes indeed, but I have seen far worse subarus, there was a blue wrx years ago in santa cruz, where the guy just took all his interior and exterior black plastic pieces and rattle caned them yellow. that was much worse than this. At least this was executed well, even if its not very subtle.

I honestly wouldn't have a problem with this car minus the wheels. I don't even mind that green when used properly. Hell a part of me REALLY like that green wagon with the pink stuff all over at subiefest.

to each their own... by that i mean i would never drive it and if a friend drove that i'd make sure he didn't park that thing near my house for fear of being associated.
totally agree. I like the colors just not the execution. but again it's his car and as long as he likes what he sees right? I hate when people put gold wheels on silver wrx's and any designer could tell you it's faux pas in color schemes... but as long as the owner likes it.

Those green wheels are doing a little too much on a WRX wagon. IMO, if you're going to put green wheels on a car it should be a Lambo or at least something a bit more exotic than a Subaru.

It may be nice that he didn't go the same route as everyone else, but that doesn't mean it it automatically looks good. Some times the most common thing is the most common because its the best option.
