'08 WRX-330 hp?

[#1hustler]

Was reading a magazine at the newstand and it had some spyshots of the '08 WRX. They were talking about 330hp in the wrx and (don't quote me on this) something 420 or 450 hp in the STi with a H6 engine. They were saying that they might drop the impreza name :( .

Is it just me or does that look like a mazda or something? Look at the grille. I knew they were talking about a hatch but I didn't expect this.

Just also noticed the windows are framed, booooo.

i heard the STI will be discontinued after this year thats why the new wrx has so much power

I can't see them discontinuing the STi it's expensive and sells way too well. Well I guess maybe :( .

330 hp would not be too much of a stretch I guess considering the current 2.5L Sti is rated at 293 hp.

I guess they would be responding to cars like ms3 and the upcoming srt4.
