SUBARU.COM : MODEL OVERVIEW : 2008 IMPREZA WRX 4-Door

It's not just the rear thats the problem. It's the front, side, rear, and interior.

My god that car looks terrible!!! There is just no appeal to it at all!! I actually think that the hatch looks better than the saloon and I didn't think that would be the case at all!!!

The back looks like a Kia saloon I was following today!!! Euughhh!! Subaru, what have you done!!

I actually prefer that to the hatch. But, having said that, I'd prefer prison over being dead.

The 4 door is a much better looking car then the hatch, set of agressive wheels and a rear spoiler and I think it would work here as the new Impreza...looks a little bit Skoda Octavia RS's to me!

Was having a look at this site earlier today and notice the new STI is $35k in the US which is about £17/18k.And they are trying to make out we are getting it at a bargain price over here of £25k aye right.

I reckon thats loads better, kinda like the newages ... would take some getting used to changing from the classic but you'd get there .... where as the hatch back .... will take much much longer

I'm sure I passed a new scoob yesterday. On the road there was absolutely nothing to look at. No presence at all.

Default 2008 US Saloon looks much better than UK hatchback

At least you can see that there is some distant connection between the new car and the NewAge / classic. The hatch is completely anonymous.
