The original concept art where it was supposedly going to be built on its own all-new chassis was infinitely better. This is clearly built on the current Impreza chassis, and I expect it to be boring and hard to make fast like the current WRX/STi.

To be honest, it is pretty ugly....

The back end is the same, the little BWM antenna is over used, the front end has the same setup like the KIA Optima where the foglights are.

If this is the car that comes out, I think it loses its appeal as a sports car and more of a car that I would recommend to a co worker who owned a legacy gt....

It just LOOKS heavy in the pictures, lol. Who knows, if they produce the hatch, it may look good. But the sedan is a thumbs down in my opinion.

The world did not need another Corolla. That is what this is. It looks cheap.

It looks like a 4 door civic si to me. I think it looks pretty slick. Remember though the last time they revised the wrx, it was bigger but 50 lbs lighter. I also think the rear fender wells on the current sti look disastrous and this is a huge improvement. Who knows they might surprise us.

The 2.0T is reported to put out 268 hp... a small improvement over the outgoing WRX 2.5T (but still a good effort, considering it's a tad more from 4/5 of the displacement), but there's likely a good amount of juice left in it, since they don't want it to compete too much with the STI's 2.5T (which it is reported to still use).

Looks worse than the current one. Subaru is going backwards again.

It looks the same as the old one. Major disappointment.
