The giant STI wing is the only thing that stands out to me.
Aside from that, I don't find them "rice" at all. I prefer the 14's (obvious bias) but I have not seen a 15 in person yet and all indications are that it looks better in person.

I really don't mind the styling, but I do wish they would have made a hatch...

That big wing is completely functional on the track. STI is advertised as a track car, so I wouldn't say it's "rice". The problem is, most STIs never see the track day, but yeah I get your point.

Same here, I wish they bring Levorg here with 2.0L 300hp... or I can do it myself with COBB stage 2 as long as they bring Levorg to the state sides. While waiting, I'm picking up the '15 Sedan.

too bad no hatch was made. So i traded my frs for the 2014 hatch. 304 HP, is enough.

The car is insane, mpg sucks, but the fun you have with one in the snow is crazy
