Return of the SVX!
i agree with the others. i think a comeback of the SVX would be awsome. i mean they did it w/ the stinkin Brat! but yeah, get those transmission gremlins fixed! i know a guy that owns one, he's had 3 rebuilt trannys in it, and one of them rebuilt again. its ridiculous. but i like the car alot otherwise. by the way, the rendering of the sketch looks much better. i just want to know how you did that?!?

Drawing and rendering skills learned from 4 years in a good industrial design program helped me do that! Seriously, though, it just takes a little imagination and some markers (or Illustrator and Photoshop in this case). It's just a different approach to the sketch rendering shown on the main page, same principles. If you can color in the lines (and sometimes not) you can render.

I agree with the SVX sentiment. Subaru lost something when they got rid of the Impreza coupe, and hopefully this new "concept" car will satisfy the void left by the coupe's absence.

OMG, they've done it again...
First, they made the back of the Forester look like a Volvo, now they'll make a new Impreza (or whatever) look like an Alfa !?
I really like Subarus and I think the Legacy is a beatifull car (especially the BG). So were the pre-bugeye Imprezas, especially the wide-body WRX versions.
I also think the SVX was an awesome car and it still turns my head when I see one! Common Subaru, take it from there, don't take if from someone else!!

Ewww... Subaru ate Honda's bad apple! I like WRX's style because it is sporty and rugged. Seems like companies nowadays are trying to make cars that look like big toads! (thinking the "new" Honda Civic and RSX v.s. the old Civic and Integra styles). I guess I'd better hang onto my old cars

Oooh I like it. I could do w/o the baby blue interior but I guess Subbie loves blue. Notice the suede. At least they took something from the SVX. Not all Subarus need to look like rally cars.
Wonder if it will really see production and how much will it be changed till ist gets there.
OK wheres the new forum thread.

alright i don't agree with the whole alfa and rx-8 stealage. why??? i understand subaru is trying to change its image from a totally mid 40 year old mother of 2+'s dream car, but come on. its almost like they are selling out. i love having a wrx CAUSE ITS A FAST 4 DOOR MOTHERS CAR!!! thats why its so bad ***. if i wanted a total sports car, i wouldn't buy a subaru, i would get a vette, or a 350z or any number of other sports cars(EXCEPT MUSTANGS!!! YUCK!)
i mean just think of how you make all the camaro's, mustangs, all the damn vroom vroom mazda's, benz, bmw's, audi's, ANY PONTIAC!(i strongly dislike pontiac) owners feel. especally young kids who have there dads stang that can't keep up. subaru's aren't expected to go fast, BUT some do!! thats what i think makes it great, the sleeper aspect.
maybe its just me. but subaru should stick with its stealthy middle aged woman look to a certain extent. atleast so you can see the old subey in it somewhere. not like this RX-8 with out the rotary, that got a face lift from Alfa himself.
