The bodykit isn't too bad, but the paintjob is rubbish. Would have been nice to see it in WR blue.

I'm not keen on the paint job but it's great to see that Perrin have stamped their name on it!

Default Have I got this straight?

Subaru make a Fugly hatchback that doesn't sell to the 'Traditional' crowd as they don't like the look much.

Subaru aren't bothered as they want to make the new model more 'mainstream' and less in your face.

Subaru give 7 cars to the makers of F&F and turn it into a saxo drivers w*nk job.

Subaru FAIL.

Agreed.

Vin Diesel was on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross last Friday. They didn't talk too much about the new film but they show a very decent looking clip with the Scooby in a chase. Head over to BBC iPlayer and take a look.

Vin Desiel was his last guest on that show's episode.

Yeah I saw the clip on The Ross show with Vin Diesel. Just thought the hatch looked quite bland with a very dull paint job though it was clearly shifting in the clip. Its a bit of a no brainer for Subaru to donate some cars which will then be featured in a Hollywood Blockbuster about fast cars. I still don't like the look of the hatch no matter how good it may be/can be with modifications to drive.
