meh...i think they're trying too hard with the commercials. if the car is as good as they say it is, the word will get out real quick...especially with the market they are targeting. For the price, I can't see it really competing with the wrx. I can definitely imagine a better interior, but other than that, I don't see why anyone would buy one over a wrx wagon. obviously, I'm biased.

Nice car, I like the looks of it, and the 2.0 has already shown it's potential. The commercials are funny too.
