They are just going the wrong way with that car, they say they want to cater to a different crowd but that is what the Legacy is for. I used to have a bug eye and I think they just killed this car. Even my hard-core Subaru friends hate it...

I think it looks pretty good...with some wheels and a drop that thing will look good. The STi pic I've seen (photochopped or not) looks badass.....

Badass if you like Ford F***us's. Or Mazda 3. Take your pick. Reviews and drives by various car mags = sloppy handling, crappy power delivery.

Oh, sorry man. Didn't know that. I'll remember that in the future.

If needed, can a mod move this?

At least the nose isn't as fugly as the '07 model's. Now THAT was fugly.

Yea I'm thinkin of that european Focus which have 300hp + AWD when I think of this.... bad news is I'm actually thinking of a Focus on steroids instead of the Evo.

In the end better front end = design improvement
ONLY being available in a hatch = BIG step back
Performance better save this car's (ugly) ***

I can't understand the japanese guys, Evo and WRX sales increased with performance oriented buyers, who wanted a nice desing, BUT the most important thing was superb handling, agressive power delivery, easy to mod.

Now they want to add luxurious interior bla bla bla increasing the weight and changing from the RALLY performance car to an easy to drive everyday car.

What a mistake!!!
