When you see it for real it's ok, it's a WRX underneath anyway

I think you'll find the key in the same location as on the WRX.

Thanks, Nick.

Key is in the same place as the Impreza. Apparently Saab "didn't have time" to relocate it.....

IIRC It has got a nice center section. Better looking than the Blob Eye.
