while I really like the addition of the steering wheel controls, they just look so cheaply integrated

I wonder if we'll be able to modify the PIDs of things displayed on that little screen, like with the WRX or Forester. Sneaky boost gauge or ethanol content gauge, anyone?

The rest is cool too!

ehhh, except for the headlights nothing dramatic, the 86 front looks much more aggressive than this. I'd pick the 86 over this. Too much going on, I like it simpler.

They could've done a much better job. Maybe it was a last minute idea. The controls and wheel on the sti would fit better IMO.

I'm very keen on seeing this at the NYIAS this weekend. Hopefully it looks just like it is in person! I love the headlights, it's growing on me.

I think this is a beauty. One day maybe they'll make it.

Loving the new padded dash section with the red stitching. Shame it doesn't extend around the head unit, otherwise I'd definitely upgrade to it on my '13. The bezels on the climate control knobs look much nicer too. The new bumper and headlights look good, but I still think I prefer the current gen (will have to wait and see if/how they integrate fog lights into the bumper as an option)
