Good grief, I thought they had finally ditched the juvenile rear wings. The hatch is the best looking Impreza by far (not much of a challenge though it has to be said!). The last thing it needs is even more cosmetic tat - it looks like something out of my 7 year-old's toy box.

^^^ LOL, bitter party of one. Let me start by giving you a disclaimer. I love you guys "across the pond," I have a man crush for Jenson Button and Jeremy Clarkson should be Prime Minister. So with that said.
1. A "saloon" is where you would drink alcohol in the old west, not a 4 door vehicle.
2. We call them sunroofs also. Not moonroofs. I have no idea where you got that from.

It is coming here.
Went to see my dealer yesterday. Thinking about changing my 58 plate STi hatch. They've got a deal on - 330s pack they call it - Prodrive kit and 18" wheels at no extra cost. Quite tempting, but thought I'd wait to see what the saloon looks like when it comes, but its going to be Oct/Nov time. He also said that they are stopping the hatch. There are only 40 new ones left at the Subaru hub - all silver. He said he'll run out of cars before any saloons arrive, and that he reckons the hatch will reappear alongside the saloon next year. Plenty of vids of it on Youtube.

I like it and Right hand drive 
We may get lightened Spec c version of the saloon as the Hatch didnt require lightening this might
Now the WRC is the WRHC or World Rally Hatchback Cup
AFAICR In WRC terms, the hatch wouldn't gain any advantage by being lightened. Therefore was not Lightened for Homologation and Motorsport purpose. Sadly this only effected "Road users" & "enthusiasts" who would buy "Spec C's" for being lightened as standard. Many people i have spoken to were disappointed by the lardy Spec C hatch.
IMHO
