This new shot has everything I felt was missing on the 08/09/10's for the WRX.

I came into the scene in 05, so I didn't witness the birth of the 04/05. However, I hated the pictures of the 06/07 models, but they started to grow on me (still not my favorite, and wouldn't trade mine for one). The 08/09/10's I hated the pictures, but the STi grew on me. That's the STi though. Even after seeing them in person, the WRX's still look like ****. As we always say though, who bought a Suby for good looks?

I agree, I would have never considered a new WRX before this change. This makes it pretty perfect, and the flared fenders + increased track changes everything. The STi was too expensive and I dislike the interior. Sure I didn't buy my Subaru for looks, but I would not buy an '08, '09 or '10 because of the looks - meaning the styling was enough to remove all interest.
I wonder what they have planned for the STi...
OneManArmy - shouldn't you buy Rat's FXT????

I took it as one of the instances where "can" = "This is what you should go do."
I still don't get it though. I never said the looks were all that mattered. I said that the appearance element was what was missing from the WRX, which is an otherwise good car.

Only visual change I can see is the fenders. Thus making it seem like thats what was most important visually. Dont get me wrong, I think it looks sick.
Other visuals all looks similar to the ZeroSports wrx even the fenders.
I really hope this one wont be almost 30k
