Great photos mate, especially the cross section of the engine.

Agreed, Photo's are high quality.

With out the front driving lamps the car now has frog eyes! Ribbit Ribbit.

And you could still write Hyundai on the back and no one would know otherwise.

Like the new interior, don't yet (might grow on me) like the front bug eyes! As Top Gear said, it looks like a Toyota Corolla from the from, not good.

I am trying to like it ....I really am but I'm sorry it looks total shi*te, even in STi form. I think it was designed to appeal to the giant American market.... and they will love it cos it will blend in with the rest of the shi*te looking cars over there!

I will be keeping my 'old shape' till she dies

Come on, it's still a SCOOBY!(with bigger eyes). Especially the blue one has the look of the R34 GTR from the side.
Does anybody know a price yet(officially)?

Hmmmm, I just don't know. I'm still going to wait until I see one in the flesh and have a good look at it.

Some days I like it, but others I don't. It still looks like a Daewoo Leganza at the back.

I think that the wagon looks pretty good.

I still don't like the front lights or the rear end look of the saloon. It looks better on the track photo than it does on the close up IMHO.

If the 280BHP version makes it to our shores it might be worth it but I doubt I'd go for the 220BHP version.

Had a good look at them in the metal yesterday at the motoshow... Sorry it looks as badd in the metal

The Wagon looks best IMO, the WRC looked good but the new design just looks a bit soft, it has lost the agressive look it had before..


Shame..


At least I can't afford one!

Scott!

Wagon looks good, but the saloon looks as bad as ever. The spoiler (esp on the white one) looks like the sort of thing Ford used to stick on 1.6 Escorts.

Interior and wheels are nice though.

I'm sorry lads but that is just plain awful.

I was never a real fan of the previous Scoob's looks, but at least it had some!!!

The old scoob looked far more aggressive. You see this in your rear view mirror, you arent gonna know whether to laugh or think its a Corolla.

The intercooler is STILL in the wrong place as well!

Come on Subaru, bring us a car that even us RS's would like!!

The rear end reminds me of a Hyundai of some variety.

Maybe the Japanese misunderstood the meaning of making the car look like the dog's bo**ocks, and tried to make it as pleasant to look at as a real pair of dog's 'nads.
