I wanna see you laugh even harder when a Kia Rio look alike murders your cute car with lots of body kit. Rex is there for purely 1 thing, to win WRC. I’m picking mine up tommorow and I’m an ex 02 WRX and 06 Impreza owner. Rex for life.

That thing looks like a daewoo lanos… usually when a new WRX comes out I see alot of them on the road … so far I’ve only seen one of these this year and they are trying to tell us that they are making sales lol.. I drive past a subaru dealer every day and just laugh to myself when I see those daewoo lanos look-alikes and whats even funnier is that not one of them has been sold yet LOL!!!!!
I’ve always loved the rexies but now that Ssangyong has taken over they wont be getting my money

I am a massive wrx / sti fan with my fave model being the 05.

at first when i saw the new 2008 wrx i was really angry lol. i hated it with a passion, how it went against everything the wrx stands for. But after slowly being introduced to more pics, and overtime i guess i started to not hate it as much. Then i actually went to see it at the showroom and it looks alot better in real life than it does in pics, now i actually kinda like it.

With that said the 2008 STi looks alot nicer than the wrx does imo, i cant wait to see a 2008 wrx STi in the flesh in black paint.

I always think if the new 2008 wrx was never released as a wrx but under a different range if people would like it a whole lot more. i think they would. I still think that would have been the better option, have a entire new range and still keep the old wrx style.

my fave is still the 2005 model, but i’ll wait until i see the 08 sti first.

This is a great design that will achieve its objectives of attracting a new ‘cardigan’ market group to the impressa grange, which is the exact reason I would never buy one. It’s greatly appreciated to see it has more under the hood, 20 per cent more power and 7 per cent more torque; but its an ugly car. The Subaru liberty should be the car Subaru use targeting this market.
I actually love the new liberty because they look mean and aggressive similar to the impressa WRX models. Subaru need the WRX and STi to compete against Nissan’s gtr and Mitsubishi’s evo models, which are uniquely bold and beautiful. A characteristic the impressa models have had all along. Scrap the design!!! The cardigans can go buy a forester.

Mate, I agree. It is the other hammerheads who go on with silly thinking saying it is fine. It looks like crap. The purpose of a high powered motor is performance and you should expect a hot aggressive look to mirror that. This car is like the TRD Aurion CRAP and it is the armchair wallies who try and defend these cars by saying it is fine. These type of people support hero cars designed by Mr Bean!
