You sure about that?

Middle one is for EyeSight cameras. Despite it being manual it still gets it.

Anyone else notice that they increased wheelbase by .2 inches? I wonder which axel they moved.

Rear if I'm not mistaken. Was mentioned somewhere.

I'm more concerned for the engine.
This is not the same engine as in the ascent. So this is most likely another detuned version for us.

Meaning, that it won't take modifications too well. Gotta keep those STI sales up.

I'll wait and see whether I'm correct on this. But I'm pretty happy with my '13.

Increasing front caster would increase the wheelbase.

Saw this on FB. Some people just want to watch the world burn.

Like others have said, the design feels... off. Maybe it'll grow on people as it ages as people tend to not like refreshes at first. I'd be curious to see what the aftermarket will do for the much maligned front end. No helping the fundamental shape of those new headlight units though. From some angles it looks great (rear three quarter, profile) from others (front, front three quarter) it looks ungainly. The rear end looks like a Honda Accord mixed with Lexus RC-F. The front looks like a weird impression of Porsche something-or-other. On the interior, the new seats look fantastic and that dash design reminds me of the Toyota MR2 Spyder. I'm still trying to decide if that's a pro or a con... The digital gauge cluster seems like a checkbox the marketing department demanded be checked. Digital clusters tend to age quickly and this isn't a fancy enough one to really be excited about and runs counter to the "simple and affordable sports car" ethos of the car.

Mixed bag, really.

Well summed up!

As if it isn't factory riced enough!
I guess it was inevitable.

Oh no now all the 18 year olds that cant afford one anyway are going to be mad at me.

Could someone with more photoshop skill than me (read: any photoshop skill) please add scuff marks from shoe heels on the middle of that side skirt thingy that sticks out? That way we'll have a more real world view of what the 3/4 profile will look like. Thanks!
