I've just had a quick look at AutoExpress the pictures appear to be the same as this car (Better Pics though)



Slightly different to the white one

The back isn't really much different but appears to have Half Red/ Half White lights on the back.. not as tacky as the lexus ones that we thought would be on it

The back isn't really changed!

That Best Car image is a mish-mash of the STi and WRX features - the scoop is flippin huge on the STi, and there are some canards on the bumper, which has some Prodrive influences (styling). Not to mention the wing on the STi, which is different.

Nimbus, that white car is the Autocar picture - I'm looking for the different Auto Express picture.

Avi - that blue car looks well

Much better than current car

Unhappy

Well this should be interesting if it looks like this IMO it looks worse than the "Bug Eye". At least that looked "a whole" as if it was designed, wether its to your taste or not. This one looks like a complete mish mash akin to a poorly modified car thats had bits added on without any thought to the overall style. Crap! long live the Bug Eye!

Here you go then, courtesy of Auto Express . . .






There are photos of the wagon, but that looks like the current model in that it hasn't got the manly wheel arches of the saloon, but it does have the new front, and the rear lights mimic the new saloon's.

The bumper on the silver one is excellent but I feel the Morette conversion it much nicer than those "new" lights.

Gotta say the blue WRX from the Jap mag looks totally cool (silver one doesn't look so hot to me).

Generally better but the scoop, why so big, it will need an anti bird guard & I pity any poor pedestrian who happens to be hit.

I've got it. Its a cross between the much loved "bug eye" and the Mk2 Hyundai coupe.

I've got a MY02 STi7 UK for sale ....... £32,000. Please make an orderly queue.
