2008 Wrx *pics*

I prefer the older and sleeker GC coupes over the bulkier 4dr GDs now.

FTW!!!

You all know Toyota bought GM's holdings in Subaru. So that might be why this Impreza looks like a Camry. Toyota is building Camrys at the same plant that builds Subaru Legacys and Outbacks.

Toyota and Subaru are looking into building a joint vehicle. Maybe a Matrix replacement?

I think we can all agree this is the best Subaru ever made.

^^ pwn3d by the internets.

no direct linking off that site

Oh and.. yeah I definitely plan on have a turbo GC8 2.5RS someday.. mmmmm It would be like my P5 just less sexy, much crappier interior, older, worse gas mileage, harder to work on, but 4X4 (ftw!).

As some of you may or may not now, there are some leaked pics of the actual car from a german site:

maybe it's the graininess talking, but it looks a bit like a Kia Spectra/Spectra5

Something about the chrome part of the grille rubs me the wrong way and those taillights? Ugh! With some tweaking its got real potential. Just not coming together for me quite right.

 

[mikeyb]

Its all wrong.

 

[misbehave]

How come I keep feeling it looks a lot like our Mazda3 hatchback.

 

[Kansei]

oh dear the higher res pics.. just make it even worse. go back to the tiny pics so at least I can't see that ugly mug and ass

I was thinking the same thing. At least its got AWD!

I have a feeling that 04-07 wrx's will be getting a better resale value once this ugly duckling hits the market...

Things to change:
1. NO CHROME!!
2. needs fender flares like current models
3. where did the trunk lid go???

1:yes
2:yes
3:suby says the sedan is still there. this will be replacing the wagon.

it's starting to grow in me, at least the basic shape. then again, i didn't like any of the 02-07's when they first came out, but after a while, the uglyness went away.

and yes, the gc, gm, gf body styles were and always will be my favorite.

The scoobydoospeed3 front chrome emblem resembles a chrysler emblem. This thing is just one ugly mut. Hopefully the performance will at least still be there.
