give it a few months and youll see the real deal. ill bet it will be a three door hatch, but that its not close to any of the funky photoshop pics youll find on the web.

I belive it's still a concept but, from what I hear it could happen.
I think the hatchback style 08 Subaru STI will be untasteful in
my opnion but,different though.We will see what happens.

Slim 617,impreza Is Never Been About Good Looks Ever Since.its About Performance.it's About It's Engine And It's All Wheel Drive System.i Think You're Not Really An Impreza Guy.

08 Sti

Any way you look at it, the release 08 Sti is something we can all look forward to. If nothing else, Subaru is doing something right, given that we all talk about the anticipated release of the 08 Sti. I am sure it will be just as impressive as its predecessors. I agree that its all about performance, so long as Subaru paves its own way. I just hope that I can afford one and there isnt too much of a wait when the time comes.

Wink Picture Above

Just one more thought...I am pretty sure that pic above is phony. I am no engineer, but with a hatchback like that, wouldnt the spoiler be entirely pointless. A couple hours of photoshop might design something very similar.
