Thoughts on the new WRX and STI

Personally, I think the new WRX and STI is uglier than the Tribeca, and the Aztec combined. I'm not sure what they were thinking. The new rims are nice, the interior looks the same, and the 3HP gain? I'm not sure how going from the 2.0 to a 2.5 give a 3 hp gain, maybe some other benefit? Anyone know?

I concur that the new nose is ugly. Im a fan of the 04-05 only. The nose reminds me of a RX8/Saturn/Infinty combined.

Even though the peak hp only increased by 3hp there are a lot more gains in the low-mid range.
