I think this car will look good without my glasses and thick cataracts, but I'll reserve my comments till it comes out . . . ah too late.

seriously I will reserve me comments till someone dares to drop it, throw rims on it etc. same goes for the EVO X. When I 1st saw the bugeye, I swore that was the ugliest thing evar as in I've seen better looking things floating in the toilet at the gas station, now I own one. Talk about "insert foot in mouth".

All I can say that will the wheels at the corners, shorter wheel base, lighter load, this car will be a riot to drive. In lieu of WRC, Subaru may be a competitor again. I think the fron end looks good. Overall not too bad, I ilke it better than the '06. Hatch backs kick ***.

Any rumors on pricing? Is it going stay the same? I hope the STi doesnt go up to the 40K mark like the EVO X might.

Oh well, another uninspiring design, I'm used to not liking new releases these days.

It seems the only somewhat mainstream companies to get styling "right" these days are Audi and Porsche. Audi is actually innovating design while keeping things looking decent. Porsche is just sticking to what works for them with classic and clean lines and it's working very, very well for them--997 in particular. I would still never get an Audi that is designed to be FWD before RWD (i.e. A4 with engine placement above front axle), and Porsches are just too expensive... Everyone else is just blah, or just downright hideous. I don't hate Toyotas--the latest Camry is decent--but the later Hondas are pretty ugly (fit excluded, it's an older design that just came to the US), as with the new Subarus...
