Looks a bit better in these pics. Those clear taillights need to go though.

That frontend is digusting.
The rear would look better with Amber lights (similarly to JDM evo 7)
Needs a nice lip and lowered a tad.


Then again, I prefer the evo 9, hence why I'm going to get one when these hit the states along with the X's

Man that is one fugly car. Looks like it should have a Ford badge on it and a chrome "Focus" name plate. The performance and the interior seem pretty good.

I still think the car is ugly, but hose wheels look pretty good!

I think the biggest problem with the looks is the front bumper. It's... hideous. Same with the tail lights. Other than that, it's pretty decent.

before anyone enjoys that subaru, they are still using Al blocks IIRC. once you turn the boost up, #3 cylinder tends to melt unless you do a rotated mount turbo up top...

So is the new Evo, and every LS motor Gm makes....the alum block complaint is getting a little tired.

ON a side note. I do like that the BBS wheels are an option. Why pay a premium for them if you plan on buying aftermarket wheels to begin with.

I wonder if they'll come out with a 2-door hatchback version? That would save some weight and make the car that much sportier.
