New WRX is hot!

Click here! to see it.

Clearly, Subaru has learned a thing or two about design.

Never mind, this is the advanced tourer concept from 2011, I was misled by the article and too hasty. My apologies.

Let us wait and see the production version before we declare it awesome. I do not see much the concepts sex appeal sticking around by the time it is ready for showrooms.

This seems more like a Legacy GT wagon replacement...

And the bigmouth bass-look is overplayed - I think Audi is the only one who can make it look decent

Yep still hasn't grown on me that concept is f'ing hideous. If they turn that into the new wrx, I predict a massive sales failure.

Honestly, if the new WRX STI isn't sub 3000 and 2 doors, I'll be disappointed.

However, if it is, I going to have to take a long think about my current STI.
