xenon expert Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Looks like a pissed-off Corolla with a gaping head wound... Yeah. I thought that too. I think it looks like a Corolla sport. Interior is nice but I hate the exterior design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviemadness Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 btw, is that a jdm bumper? if so, did you have to remove the safety beam to make it fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLegacy99 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I heard that the WRX is supposed to have HIDs, but that doesnt appear to be the case in these pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLegacy99 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 • High-grade, double-stitched seat fabrics provide a feeling of quality. Well thats good that they provide that feeling, but are the actually high quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 The black interior looks quite nice... http://www.jalopnik.com/assets/images/gallery/12/2007/04/medium_444848269_3f9374fcbb_o.jpg After thinking about this car overnight and seeing a few Suzuki's and a Daewoo that resembles these two models in more ways than I can describe I am more let down than at first. I hope it looks better in person because at this point I just don't get it. My vB Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirSix Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Will ugly Imprezzas cause Legacy sales to increase? Yes, I think so. As this stupid euro hot hatch Ford Focus Seat Vauxhall design will loose the late 20 and 30 somethings like myself that had actually considered the previous WRX or STI as a viable option to the Legacy for modability and performance enhancemants, sans some of the boy racer add-ons. I've seen enough older dudes like me driving STI's and rexs to believe that some market share will naturally move to the GT. And if Subaru was hoping to somehow grab a portion of the Hyundai/Mazda/Toyota/Suzuki average buyer hatch/sedan market by designing this WRX in their images, they made a huge mistake. What average buyer is going to pay the extra insurance, gas, and general upkeep for a turboed AWD car in this class. Enthusiasts are the lifeblood for Subaru in this class, their Y2K WRX sales prove it. Idiots.... I tell myself that an N/A Forester is just an STI without all the fluff like, power, handling, style, racing heritage, and curb appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGTLT Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Looks like 12-spoke for the Impreza and 10 spoke for the WRX. The wheels and interior look good... the rest of it: I still don't get it...

If the new one has all the usual Subaru attributes (reliable, safe, awd) and it performs well in WRX and/or STI form, people will buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcTec34 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 so yeah.. i sorta came around to the design a little bit.. but then i found this picture and decided its ugly again. ugh. stupid SOA. this will be my last subaru after what they did to the new legacy/outback/impreza. at least the new tribeca is normal.er http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/autoblogwrx08_6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGTLT Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Well, looking at the two interiors answered another question some had: Would they REALLY put flat ugly seats in the WRX too? NOOOO! It must only be the tan regular Impreza. Once we see the seats in the black WRX, I'm sure they'll be moire supportive, agressive, etc............ NOT! SAME ONES IT LOOKS LIKE.

Scooter Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Interior looks great, IMHO: clean and simple lines. And I love the interior on the Trib and my LGT, too, so I think it's high time Subaru takes whomever is responsible for the recent interior styling and promote them to be responsible for the exterior as well! I can't believe that anyone there really thought this exterior would be a hit, but then again, I've seen some pretty bad styling exercises here in Detroit, as well. This looks like they took the side profile of the Euro Focus and added the Mazda3 rear quarter window, the Bangle BMW side character line, the concept B5-TPH nose and god only knows where they got those hideous taillights from. It's just plain bad. How come the guy who styled our LGT's didn't get a crack at this? - the 2005 model was widely regarded as a huge step up in styling over earlier Legacy models. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
