well i dont hate wagons

but i hate the idea of a sports car being a wagon!

ill probably get over it cause for a while when i was lookin for an awd i hated the four door and now i love it!

i also hated the hawkeyes when they first came out!

so this will probably grow on me too!

but i would still rather buy the sedan and supe that!

I thought this had been beat to death here for the last few years.


WRC cars get 4 jugs for fast changes between stages.

street cars will still be 5 lug

the shape of the headlights is so freakin anonymous & the grill is still weak, better than any version of it so far but still FAARRRRRR from pretty.
oh & +1098740981750918730495 no altezzas.

& to go off on a complete tangent, when did Subaru change their tire sponsor? IIRC they were one of the only 2 factory teams running Pirelli while everyone else was running Michelins.

Yeah, early concept photos are always tarmac spec because they look cooler. The real gravel spec cars will sit a bit higher and have more suspension travel.

The CORRECT Subaru terminology for that vehicle is a FIVE DOOR. We don't sell Sedans and Wagons anymore...

<I learned that during the new model sales training/'08 WRX Auto-x racing/Tribeca drag race/Impreza Auto-x driving event I attended a week ago.>
