The R2 name is appropriate. It looks like R2D2!!!!

not too fervent about the grill...reminds me of chrysler cars. we'll have to see it on a WRX concept car though.

when is the WRX due for a re-design?

I don't think it looks tooo bad

it just looks weird on those stubby cars. I think with the scoops it looks pretty good.

Not even if they end up changing the front of and STi to look like that?
