Every time Subaru announces a new WRX the replies are always the same that we see here. I hated the hawkeye and then after a few years I liked it, I didn't really care for the 3rd gen and it it grew on me. In the case of this car, I like the way it looks as it is, and this is the first WRX we get that is actually all new, from top to bottom. I'm excited to see what they did with it, specially how it drives. Hopefully this new engine is easier to make power out of, we get a 6 speed on the wrx, and more reasonable fuel efficiency.

Car companies should really do polls for car designs, especially for a car that is aimed at car enthusiasts. We are the ones that will be purchasing the car after all. I wonder how long they go before remodeling like the 2009 wrx before it went to the wide body.

Makes my 2013 STI look like a damn supermodel in comparison.

:barf:

Looks like they started a new WRX up front, gave up after the quarter panel, and attached a Civic instead.

Wheelbase is too short, and front fender is also too tall above the wheel. Yea I know, because AWD, but it makes the car look chubby

This is one reason I just bought the 2014 WRX, the 2015 just doesn't work. I also didn't want the new problems..like having to replace the ECU on my BRZ. Lov'n my BRZ and WRX! Don't fix what isn't broken...listen to what buyers want Don't get me wrong, BRZ/FRS are the best thing that could happen to sports cars! Just work out the bugs before building.

Meh, everyone likes what they just bought. I like my wife's '12 Impreza, so I think this will look decent in the flesh. Especially in that tasty lightning red, or the new crystal white.

that car is crying for new wheels and exhaust. I don't know it looks so ugly to me inside and out.

I don't know, the more I look at it the more it's growing on me. I think that's how wrx usually works...

It's really grown on me since the first teaser the other day. The development video where it was running test with the brz really opened up my eyes to its potential. It's going to be be the best WRX yet, performance wise.

I sincerely apologize. Let's start critiquing every post on the forum. Next time your smart ass comment to yourself.
