nope, just roomers as usual. It looks like there may be hatchback and sedan versions for the new models. But that's about all anyone has heard.

For 08 I was told there was going to be no sedan model for the STI, They will only be producing a "Wagon STI".... this is coming strait from people at Subaru Steven's Creek Dealership (so im not to sure how acurate it is.)

The official debut of the Impreza will be at the New York auto show in April. Until then, we only have 'spyshots' and rumors. The big rumor seems to be that the STi will only be available in a 5 door hatchback bodystyle. I don't know about the rest of the line though.

I think I read a few threads down that the latest news says there will be a sedan 2.5i and WRX available, as well as hatches, but STI will only be available as a hatch.

Yes, this is correct. It is pretty recent news actually. A spokesman for Subaru had said it in a interview.
