But then again, nothing to be proud of, it's not a production car.

Definitely, I am aware that FQ400 is faster than the IX MR (were just saying that to whoever said its slower than the IX MR) I personally love how the Prodrive look but I guess this is not what this thread is about. Anyhow, I'm loving the way my 06 Aspen white STI looks

Subaru unveiling new Impreza in New York, WRX being dropped

I posted this in the ralliart general in the MEGA-MERGE thread, but figure I would post it here aswell. It had me thinking though, "whats the next impreza going to look like"? Well I may have just found it:

No official word, but this is a spyshot. What do you think? Yes, it's a hatchback as Subaru has officialy said the next impreza will come in a hatchback!
Subaru unveiling new Impreza in New York, WRX being dropped

Autocar is reporting that Subaru will volly a strike against Mitsubishi in early April when it debuts the all-new Impreza at the New York Auto Show. The body style will be a five-door hatchback with styling similar to that of the B5 TPH concept that first appeared last year in Tokyo. Power will reportedly come from your choice of a 1.5L or 2.0L flat-four boxer engine. Autocar's shocker is that the popular WRX model that slots between the everyday Imprezas and the high performance STi model will be cancelled, and that we won't see the new STi until 2008. Autocar doesn't cite its source for this information, and it seems highly unlikely to us considering that Mitsubishi is planning to make its Lancer Ralliart more powerful than previous generations in an effort to face the WRX head on. All will be revealed in the Big Apple come April, but for now we sit and wait.

No official word, but this is a spyshot. What do you think? Yes, it's a hatchback as Subaru has officialy said the next impreza will come in a hatchback!
