I clicked the link and a pop up for some red ford came up that covered the subie picture....... I started to think that's kind of bad, but not horrible. When I realized it was an ad, I closed it and saw the real car.
What narcotic is their design team addicted to? I hope natural selection will take care of this.

They are probably smoking pot and got lazy and said to themselves, F it lets just slap the Suburu badge emblem on a Mazda 3 and be done with it.

lol "much-anticipated" WRX. It has the front grill/fascia of a Ford, and the rear end of a Mazda.


So....this is the wagon version, where's the regular one?

This is the regular version. I saw this magazine the other day. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. That thing is ugly as hell.

The WRX is now a hatchback, so I'm not completely sure there's going to be two different versions. However, since hatchbacks have historically done bad in the US, subie is keeping a sedan version for the US market. When pictures and information will be available, I'm not sure.

Yeah I'm sure after they debut this mess that a hatchback, sedan, and wagon will be available just like the Mazda 6. Mitsu will probably do the same thing will the new Lancer, its all messed up too. Oh well. I guess goods things had to end some time. At least there were IX good reasons before the downfall but didn't think Suby would follow.
