So is every single Impreza ever made...

I like the fact that the STI is ugly. It'll hopefully scare away ricers so only the most hardcore buy it.

dont forget a few aftermarket upgrades would make it look alot better.

I cant stand those tail lights. But i guess that would be an easy swap.

I've been a huge fan since the gc8 days. But ever since they started that Alfa Romeo front, the designs just went downhill.

Now this!? I like the idea of a hatch design cuz it's kicking azz on the rallys. But seriously, now they wreck the back as well with that RX300 design? I just can't handle that, I would totally go for the Evo X this round.

imo, this is not as ugly as the previous impreza...

[cityhunter2501]

its just hard getting used to an STi HB, but I'm sure it will still be fun to drive.

if i get one, first thing I will do is change the front grille

[LUCKYSTRIKE]

Yeah its still ugly as hell, but hey if its an improvement over the last one (performance wise) then good on subaru.

I agree. Possibly the nicest impreza to date.

Yea they look like a mazda 3, but they are starting to grow on me. I have to see one in person to know for sure though. Kick-ass car!

I still think 04-05 was their best looking gen... but thats just me.

If it came in a sedan i would say this one is much better than the last gen, i just cant get over the HB.

The best looking Sti was the GC8. 04-05 style is second best.

I would take this the 08. I could live with the hatch but I would need to change the front grill and the tails asap!

GCs look riced out from the factory with their ridiculous ricer front bumpers.

02s ahve the ridiculous bug eyes

04s still have boring body lines and would look just like any other Accord Camry or Altima without the scoop and out of place fender bulges.

06s...pig nose.

Now the 08 are keeping the tradition of ugliness.

Is anyone buying one since the rebate is pretty decent?
