If you think about it, it's been basically the same chassis for 10+ years. It's due for a redesign. I'd like to see a 3-door hatch, but more than likely it will be 5-door. Personally tho, I really like the STI as a sedan...

I think the hatchback style 08 Subaru STI will be untasteful in

There have been many pics posted on other forums of this, they are all slightly different.
Never the less they are all hatcbacks, i has a look of a Mazda at the front and a Vauhaull at the back.
The car looks to me like it's going to be perfect for everyday stuff like shopping etc...But it is taking away all the class and exclusiveness of the STi.
Sorry for you lot who like it, but i have niknamed it the ASDA.I will no way be upgrading if thats all they can offer.

I like it. I'm not a big fan of hatches, but the new MS3 looks nice, but no awd. I'm still trying to decide what I want next, maybe a mustang GT, G8, 350z, MS6, legacy GT, wrx, ralliart, or evo. If they really do make it more affordable (under 30k), I would really like to get the STI. Right now it looks like my best bet with school loans and such, will probly be the new ralliart or wrx, depending of course, what they will actually be and the price when they come out...

Mustang GT? Try to take a turn at a relatively high speed and see how that works out :s.

Has Subaru confirmed that there will be a design change for the '08 STi or is this all speculation?

Unfortunately, it'll turn heads in the other direction...
