I am definatly excited for it, they made it look much MUCH better than the evo 8 by getting rid of the split in the middle of the grille.

Looks like they did a much needed update to the interior of the car. I'd love to see some pictures of the dash.

Yea, evos have always had terrible crash test ratings. I do like the interior change they have made to it. other then that, it looks almost identical to the GSR VIII series with a mildly new front end on it. STi still |0WNT| in the sporty look department, inside and out.

I thought the EVO XIII seats were among the most comfortable I've ever sat in. I wonder what they did to the engine/driveline/suspension.

It is a truly lovable car, but I still prefer the STi.

Interior looks the same as the current evo 8. Remember that photo is of the JDM version which has always had the more aggressive recaros.
