I don't really care that the first Impreza ran for 8 years with only a slight refresh. To me that's more honest than the 'General Motors-esque' bodywork changes on the same exact chassis.

BTW.. you are wrong about the Jag and it's XJ not XK (XK is the 2dr and is unchanged since introduction).

I'd hit it!!! Wagons are the ****. Its doesn't what kind of face you put on 'em they still rule. I just hope Subaru 4 pots/2pots stay on the boat and don't decide to jump off somewhere in the middle of the ocean.

I need to quit posting from work. I'm all wound up and *****y. Nothing personal. And sorry, I didn't specify about the XK. The XK, though not changed since the inception on that specific name, ustilizes the same basic frame as the XJ-S which was created back in '78. So the XK frame is infact nearly 30 years old.
Back on subject, I actually like the new nose. It's not the best looking thing out there, but it is different which I like. Then again, you probably shouldn't listen to me since I also think the Bugeyes look better than the 04 and 05 models.
