Headlights are very Japanese!
Like it.
Bet most people on here that don't like it have the OLD shape and are now upset that there are 3 newer versions!
Change is good.

Well, Subaru have never been top of the styling pile.
My questions would be:
1) How much better does it perform (does it have a 2.5 *surprise* or ever a twin scroll turbo under the hood?
2) What is the drag coefficient of this design vs the blobby?
3) When is a complete new model coming - this is still just a face lift on the existing shape?
4) How much more will it cost?
5) What is the eight difference?
Now, the question is, do u get one of these... or an EVO X when it is released.

Still don't like the captain beaky look. I think if the centre grill section went narrow at the bottom, then widened out I'd like it more. The spoiler-lite on the rear window adds very little IMHO and reminds me too much of Saxo's etc. Umm what else.. Rear bumper goes way too low and again reminds me of something from Need for speed 2. Finally, it really is time to ditch the scoop and move to a front mount...

i liked the photoshop pics to be honest, i think that one looks horrible
FFS its now got lexus look lights as standerd![EEK!](images/smilies/eek.gif)
i think when i change my car im moving towards a m3, maybe a blobeye if the prices drop down quite a bit, dont think they will as the blobeye looks a bit better imo

Looks OK to me. Theres a bugeye STI in a local dealership parked next to a blobeye STI and I spent more time nosing around the bugeye than the blob.
I'm starting to like bugs more than the other at the moment. (Apart from classic obviously)

Hmmmm....not sure...can't make up my mind! ![Suspicious](images/smilies/Suspicious.gif)
Like the position of the Subaru Badge on the boot lid, although I miss the S U B A R U letters as I have always liked them.
Don't like the new rear lights much.
I see they have gone back to the Bugeye Scoop on the bonnet! Prefer the blobeye one personally (although I understand the pedestrian safety reasons behind minimising it)
Not sure about the new spoiler on the rear window.....a bit too much?
Anyone know if the interior is different from the current model?
I will be keeping my MY03 longer though...and it may even help the resale value

Think I need to see one in the flesh to really decide.

Yuk! Was holding on to see what the new model was going to look like as I may have been tempted, but think I'll spend my money elsewhere.
Thought that in a different colour it might make it look better, but looks even worse in silver!

Granted if it's a 2.5 (300 bhp standard) and the WRX gets the STi lump + 6 speed I'll be thinking hmm maybe should have waited
.. if the specs aren't much different though my thoughts are ...
HOLY COW WHAT WERE THEY THINKING !!!!!
They've taken pity on the bug eye team that were reduced to designing filler caps for Justy's and re-employed them as the A design team
It's a hideous hideous thing .... run, run, run while you can and buy the beautiful blob eye with free PPP. Run, I tell you, as fast as your legs or current scoob can take you .. I'm off to puke in a bag![EEK!](images/smilies/eek.gif)
Why oh why oh why ... boy am I glad I bought an MY05.
I just don't understand how Subaru can get it so right with all the engineering (well mostly) and then clothe the chassis etc with quite frankly hideous bodywork.
My only suggestion is it now gives the bug-eye boys someone to laugh at, someone further down the ugly tree hitting all the branches as they go![Big Grin](images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
**** me .. I'm frankly aghast at the abomination ... might grow on me I suppose
