No this is the Wagon we are STILL waiting for

Both saloon and hatch continue to NOT do it for me.

think it will please most fans with going back to the saloon and wagon shape but i must admit i was starting to like the hatch shape every time i seen one but for the guys that got the hatch shape i think most will be up in arms now that subaru are now about to launch the new shape saloon and wagon model

shoot me down if you want but that rear end and wing look a bit like the evo x

It does a bit, but the Evo X is a much better looking car though.

I'd be happy with the hatch - it has grown on me now, especially the cosworth collaboration

Hatch like the bug / blob and hawkeye models had lots of bad press for the looks but as normal they end up grwoing on people, I was not a fan of the hatch bit I have to say it has grown on me and have seen a few tastefuly done cars which have changed my mind. Sure these new models will be the same, time has moved on and sonhas the overal design of the Subaru, I do like the that wagon though although it is more of an legacy estate if that makes sense compared to the old wagons

that does look quite nice, the only thing though is it's to much like the new legacy can you do it so the estate bit isn't as big?

Supposed to be available in the UK from Oct / Nov this year.
I'll definately be looking into buying one then.

Never liked the hatch, hence the reason for sticking with my JDM new-age STi a bit longer than normal.
I think there will be a lot of hatch owners not too happy now.............just they'll never admit it.

Sorry but is too big - overhangs are massive. Looks like a lard ****. just looks like they have extended the rear of the hatch - horrible.
