Avi,
I don't mind at all - in fact I was considering releasing the pic on April 1st to do just the same to Scoobynet
Shame somebody had to go and spoil it so soon though - that was pretty pathetic
I'd like to have seen at least one person taken in by it. That said, your post didn't have any reference to Photoshop until after you'd edited it

Has anyone seen Avi's thread on I-Club? http://www.i-club.com/forums/showthr...hreadid=148528
The Yanks don't seem to like the 2-door look much, although they've also spotted the resemblance to the Skyline. It wasn't intentional, but I noticed it too and didn't put any effort into removing it. It's the rear windows that do it for me.
Someone also suggested that it looked stretched, which is odd given that I didn't touch the wheelbase. I actually just lengthened the doors slightly (like the old shape 2 door cars), and lowered the roofline to give it a sleeker, more sporty profile. Personally I really like the result (although I probably would say that!), and a hope Subaru are listening. I've promised myself an STI in about a year's time... hint... hint...
Trivia: the pic is actually based on the UK300 that was in my group at Prodrive Live last week - most of the work was involved in transforming it into a convincing STI in the first place
Here's the pic without the wheels, spoiler and STI badge:
Ditch the bug-eyes and the 'new age' Scooby could almost look good again... IMHO of course
