Anyone see the pics in this weeks AutoExpress (got in the post this am) of the scoob at the Tokyo Auto Show?

Shows a pic of a chopped, lowered WRX. Unfortunately its been axed It was shown to gauge reaction and had wide bodywork, ground hugging suspension and its roof height cut by 10cm.

They said a more subtle version may hit the show room, but other designs are taking place too.

New shape 22B anyone?

I saw it although it took a great deal of searching, the pic is so small! Not sure about the paint job but the lowered roof sounds like a good idea. I never did really like the profile view of the car, a lowered roof would improve this greatly.

Anyone else think that Subaru must have been inspired by The Fast and the Furious

A special edition sounds like a good idea but it makes buying one even more complicated! Damn you Subaru!

I thought the the same about the WRX in the Gatso article

Its a step in the right direction with the car, but a 2 door shell, wide arches etc for the new shape is required
