Toyota didn't even have a press conference, guess their attention is turned to other matters right now. Instead, an Avalon is on the main display stand in Toyota's section of the show.

I guess not. I'm waiting for it too. tC news is bad already, I dun need any now.

Gost · 03-31-2010, 09:01 PM

I'll be at the NY auto show, I'll try to get whatever info i can if there is any and I'll try to get some quality pics, assuming that it'll be there.

Midship Runabout · 03-31-2010, 09:40 PM

If it is there it will be the first time in the states if im not mistaken. probably wont be there though

Well, there was a face lift announced for the WRX sedan and hatch.

The 2011 STi is still under wraps.

Yes we will see STi tomorrow, and yes "THE WING IS BACK". Finally, Subaru understand that STi needs a Wing, a huge wing( er not really huge).

Someone on the NASIOC said the EFI Logics(suby tuners) guys are at the Subaru press conference tonight and reported back, the STi will now be offered in a hatch and sedan so you can choose.

Like this

OH...... and STi spy shot from tonight

Dark · 03-31-2010, 11:49 PM

I thought the WING would be higher. I'm wrong again.

No, wider fenders, STI suspensions and black Brembo calipers and pretty much all the STI stuff it has on hatchback ver.

As for the pic, that kinda looks like Impreza GT, instead of STI (GT is between WRX and STI iirc).

Tougerenner · 04-01-2010, 12:29 AM

^ it was only in this last generation of impreza the GR(08-10) platform that STi did not share any of its body panels as the WRX. The GD(04-07) WRX and STI had identical bodies(fenders). I see what suby is doing, trying to save money by not having two sets of fenders.

It just came to me what the rear bumper of the new wrx sedan looks like....

I was assuming that pic was the sti. Plus, my post had a bit of smart-assary to it. I knew there were other details. I was being demeaning to subaru.

Yeah, I agree. It looks like an ugly car that someone tried to patch together with oddly matched body kits...

"lets glue some scoops here, and some fender flares here...and..."

Myka · 04-01-2010, 01:06 PM

I feel sorry for the subaru guys. Apparently, this was a major letdown for them.

Matador · 04-01-2010, 01:15 PM

Meh.... I wouldn't kick it out of the garage.
