Is it just me, or is there something of the "shed" about it?

Its a bit like a Chrysler 300C estate but presumably smaller like an Audi RS3.

I wouldnt say no, if it still has impreza driving characteristics. Presumably it will have direct injcetion petrol engine too, which would be great for economy

dont like it, seems they are losing the Impreza name too - "Notice the name "Impreza" hasn't appeared anywhere in our discussion yet. Subaru is reportedly dropping the name in an attempt to get more 'Likes' for the WRX by making it more approachable"

Obviously not keeping yourself upto date with what's going on

"Impreza" now to be "run of the mill" models. latest being the "4 Gen" saloon and hatch....





Having same chassis etc as the XV..............



Performance models in future to be marketed under the WRX and WRX Sti names................ and "at the mo" still to be based on the current G22 body in both wagon and sedan versions.......





New WRX/WRX STi due 2013/14 ?
