Yay! they got rid of the stupid triangle front end. It think the new sedan looks pretty sharp. I'm looking at getting one for a DD when I'm out of school. On the disappointing side it looks like the STI will only come out in the hatchback version which imo looks like crap. Oh well.

I heard they have one of the design guys from Mazda working for them now. It looks like chit. I'm looking into buying a 02 or 03 WRX for a DD this summer.

Eh, I think it's an improvement over last years body style. The front ends on those things were hideous. Then again who cares, there'll be a kazillion body kits to choose from soon enough.

If this is what the new sti looks like then I'll stick to one of the older models. I'm not very impressed.

If thats what it is going to look like I am very disappointed... The previous models all appealed to me, even the bug eyed ones. This car I agree looks like a Carolla, ugly IMO!

That's badass. I'm torn between that and an Evo for a DD if i bought a new car.

For now it's '88 Bronco II > Evo STi

Yeah...the bad thing is anything with Suburu stamped on it is crazy expensive. I priced shocks and struts for a Legacy once and it was 800 bucks!

How much suspension work could you do on the 5.0 for that $800, right? Whole rearend rebuilt? Seriously expensive DD!
