Black is most definately best - is that blue/black or graphite? IMHO I think the new front looks better than the bug eyes but NOT as good as a bug-eye with Morettes. I certainly would NOT say it looks menacing! In fact is it me or does it look identical to the fron of a Hyundai Scoupe ????

Why didnt they ditch the ironing board and have this look as standard......??

Well this is my tuppence worth...dont really care for the new shape, the scoop looks pants, the front looks half finished, back ends OK but boo to the spoiler and the colour, well someone said it here Blue is the only colour, but then i would agree as mine is Blue.Though all those ownwers in silver, red, green etc etc will disagree and Adams garage makes it look all the more atractive.Not...sorry but i'm happy with my MY00WRX even if the first impressions of the driving are good.
Tuppence over..

Im in 2 minds, I think overall it is better looking than the bugeye, but not the STI bugeye.

Dont like the air intake too much.

And it needs a wing! but rallytech can sort that out for you

LOL

Popeye P1

Needs a better spolier. Also cover up thos ugly bug eyes.

I still think the front end lacks an aggressive look

uugghh.....I hope it goes better than it looks.

The Subaru boffins seem to be doing an amazing job of makeing the car look worse at each new release since the STI6.

Even the mondeo looks sporty in comparison. I suppose its OK if your over 50. I think people will buy it because its got a Subaru badge on it.

Be honest....would you still buy it if it was the exact same car but it had a vaxhaull badge on it?

Update - Saw these in the flesh at my local dealership on Saturday. The STI8 looks awesome! The wrx COULD look great with a few accessories.

Ajax-nice photos and car, didn't you notice the paint has started to blister in some of the shots......??????????

What will this latest incarnation be known as? Bullnose or Uglybloke?

Suddenly the Bugeye looks pretty god damn good!

I'm not so p****ed off now that Mr Subaru has dropped the price by £2k and I can't believe they've stayed with that excuse for a rear spoiler. Maybe they're recycling the thousands of them that must be lying around garages as some sort of save the environment from plastic dumping.

It's a pity as the WRC 03 looks menacing (from the front).

I suppose after something as perfect as a 22B it could only go downhill.

Pretty shiny all the same.
