Had a good look round a couple at Litchfield's the other day, loved the interior but still hate the looks......

Saw one at the Geneva Motor Show. Better looking than I thought, not quite as Honda Civic as I imagined. Boot small though, might struggle with the golf clubs...

I looked at one at a dealer about 5 weeks back.

Thought it looked pretty agressive actually. But parked up next to a regualr WRX it sure made the WRX look DULL!

Only thing I don't really like is its hatch styling. The previous models, saloon and Wagon looked grown up. Something you'd aspire to. This new one looks too much like a teenage jazed up hot hatch, more akin to a Clio.

Theres a white one at local subaru dealer its on for £23k, maybe a low spec? the wheels certainly are very bland, looks ok i guess but potential to look a lot better.

Saw a WR blue one at my gym, if my car (MY03 STi) wasnt so filthy i would have parked next to him to steal its limelight imo lol.

There are a few around where I live and they look okay. Nothing really that impressive (for me) to be honest. The main one I see is white though, which really doesn't appeal to me.
