Wow! I'm gonna have to kick up my savings plan a notch. This is the best looking car I've seen since the FD RX-7...

I don't understand why it couldn't look like this?

They have consistently said the Subie and Scion would have different rear and front end treatments.

Yea but a different bumper/grill mold in plastic is alot different than a different door.

I like it but... what is up with the huge wing going on there? Can't they do something a little less bomber like? I dunno I guess I'm just not into the whole car/plane hybrid look

I do too. After looking at the Toyota stuff a little more, assuming those Toyota taillights are split in two pieces at the trunk line then these may be possible, although they'd require a different trunk which we haven't been led to believe will be the case yet..

I'd love to see the final Subaru design!

Bumpers, not anything with sheet metal like fenders, doors, trunk, etc. For this to happen there would be sheet metal changes.
