Car look awesome to me. If they enhance with a little wider rear fender like the twin then it could be more sexier for bold STI version. Got to test drive this summer... and... ?!

P.S. Love that blue. Ordered my WRX in the same color.
How much are you paying for it? OTD price?

I'd have to get the WRX to avoid the melting ringlands.

Love how the new WRX/STI looks. It resembles of 22B.


I got the WRX limited HK/Nav/Keyless with short shifter. 34.5K OTD.

If it looked like the concept I would have bought one - so disappointed.

I don't care about the WRX concept like everyone didn't about FR-S concept.

That's your call.

Unlike a lot of other concepts the WRX one had me excited because it actually looked like it could go into production as it wasn't too radical. It was also accompanied by Subaru rhetoric that they wanted a major model design change for the WRX so did seem closer to a production possibility than other concept cars.

you gotta be kidding, 34.5k out the door ? that means without tax it is actually 31.0k ? Wow...if I am not mistaken, STI limited invoice is 34.5k + Now with no profit (hold back, market adjustment...etc) It will be 31.5k. That dealer works free for you, or lost some money. Because MSRP must be like 37.0k +

If that was the deal, congrat, and enjoy

Mine is WRX Limited, I got it for 500 over invoice with freebies. STI Limited is 36.5K Invoice + NAV/Keyless $1350 invoice + Handling Fee&Document fee, OTD would be well over 42K. I could go STI, but I despite EJ engine. I rarely track my car, so I don't see a reason getting STI at all. I may get STI next year if they switch to FA.

Performance is great, pity they didn't match with their new design.
