Looks like a cross between a Astra and a Rover 218. Dreadful. Hope the STi looks better.

I guess Subaru are going to lose tousands of loyal suppoters, who have been fans of what the impreza that was. IMHO I feel we're being shafted.

Bad move subaru.
Here comes mitsubishi

just imagine what it will do with the 2nd hand market on scoobies, they will all go up in price as nobody will want a new one.

Actually those pics at the top of the page are OK. The first pics were stupid, boring looking car with a scoop on the front of it At least that looks conservative and seems to all blend in together.

Still rubbish as far as an Impreza replacement goes. EVO is the only option atm.

Follow that link and take a look at the pics.

The interior shots show a picture of the engine bay....tiny little intercooler!

The site seems very slow, but the pics do load eventually.

The saloon looks a bit better from this angle.

Its weird. When the hawk eye was released I didnt like it initially but knew id begin to like it later.

This is just aweful. I mean the hatch back looks like a friggin cross between Mazda 3 and a BMW 1 series. Its aweful.

The saloon gives off the impression of a typical Subaru Legacy. I honestly dont know where they are trying to go with these new designs. I did read however, that the new Impreza is not intended for the UK market. So maybe we shall have something different.

Also its strange how quickly theyve released a new version when the Hawk eye wasnt released long ago

It does look 'Yanky' Dare I say 'Hyundai'ish'


I'm sure the UK version will be slightly tougher looking as I severely doubt anyone will buy that effort when they compare it to the earlier models
