Saw my first 'new 08 impreza sti yesterday
sat on the m1 in the roadworks between 10-6 junctions so plenty time to study it, from the back and side at least.
at first i did not recognise it as a scoob as it is so different from previous models.
It was in red and TBH and IMHO did nothing for it, STI badge was all but invisible and the rear light clusters looked pretty chav and unbalanced with the BIG reversing light dead centre one side and fog the other. Not a clever piece of design and done much better by others.
I am sure it will grow on me but tbh i was pretty underwhelmed and it was not so much understated and just plain and run of the mill.
I am not saying i disliked it it just had little impact on me and presence which the other scoobs had, the classic in abundance!
