test mules end up looking like nothing resembling the final product so I reserve my comments until I see more pictures with regards to actual concept cars or test shots of the real wrx.

all subaru is doing is just fitting wrx/sti stuff on a newer chassis impreza to figure out how its gonna work imo.

I personally think it will be sick, but definitely a new direction for the WRX/STI line. Getting rid of the EJ engine will be a huge step and something completely new that we have not seen in decades.

some more renderings:

the 1st and 2nd images look like a hot wheel/matchbox car.......

If anything, id prefer that last image. Front looks good, but the rear may look a bit funky..

Well.... This appears to be the new forester. Seems like they want a legacy look too all the subies.

It isn't a "legacy" look, it is the new Subaru look.

Even the GH/GR had that same look, but the grille is a bit larger and more squared off now, so it stands out a bit more. As I mentioned, I actually kind of like it. I thought the 2012 Impreza looked kinda ugly in pictures, but it looks better in person than in pics.
