Sedan pics are out.

The front fascia seems a little cluttered (note, this is coming from a 08 STi owner), but every other angle looks pretty nice.

I really really hope they do something crazy/wack for the 2011 STi.
"...and the interior remains unmolested as well."

lol

Pretty cool - they managed to make it look like a Subaru! Can't believe no one has mentioned the grille yet. To me, that makes the front even though it's a subtle change.

On closer inspection you can see the shape of the wing. I think that's pretty cool how it's shaped like those tall race wings.

"In the past couple of years, if you were looking for a turbocharged, AWD rally-bred sedan with an oversized rear wing, you were really limited to the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
But now Subaru is reviving a large rear spoiler of its own on the new 2011 Impreza WRX STI four-door, which debuted at the New York auto show.
The sedan joins the five-door wagon in Subaru’s flagship performance lineup and marks the first time the STI has been offered in two body styles. The STI sedan adopts the wide-body design found on the wagon, with heavily flared front fenders and rear quarter panels. In addition, the bumpers feature a more aggressive look with blacked-out fog lights, a new grille with black inset and the aforementioned oversized rear wing.
Helping to raise the handling prowess in both wagon and sedan versions, Subaru reworked the suspension tuning, which was previewed on the 2010 Impreza WRX STI Special Edition. Ride height is lowered, spring rates increase, antiroll bars are thicker, and front pillow-ball bushings and rear subframe bushings are stiffened. The standard 18-inch wheels are also new and weigh 17.6 pounds less than the previous wheels. All of this results in reduced body roll, more neutral handling response and better lateral grip capability.
Both the 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX STI sedan and wagon land in showrooms in late summer."

According to that link the wheels are much lighter which is much needed imo. It does look like the Evo X.
