I think the STI looks pretty good, but the WRX is too different for me . . . kinda ugly :rolleyes:

6 speed CVT transmission.
huh? This source doesnt seem very well informed.

also, every report ive read has said that the front will loose the "aircraft" grille/nose.

These last chops are pretty bad.. They just picked the B5-TPH and putted some lights randomly and some fog lights of the first impreza in the front..

It probably won't... since Mitsubishi has retired from rallying...

And by the way aren't CVT gearboxes, seamless...?

the rear lights on the yellow "wrx" look like inverted BMW lights.

i call chop, there is no way that subaru will go that way with the car, maybe something like it, but this isnt it.

Especially the ones which apart from having the big wings you mention, are blue with gold wheels.

Do some research. Subaru still produces a 2.5RS.

You usually have to pay money for that sort of thing.

There's a differecne between good and cool. Subaru Imprezas are good cars but not cool. The Fiat Multipla might look ugly but it's very cool indeed.

Hi all,
i'm new in this forum ! I would like to know if the future Subaru Impreza WRX STI will be a Hatchback STI or a normal STI ( Sedan ) .... THX

Chances are if the Regular WRX becomes exclusively hatchback than the STI will follow suit.

When can we be sure if the future WRX will be Hatchback ?? ( i'm sry for my english ) ...Is it sure that the future STI is a normal Sedan ???? Hatchback is not beutiful !!! The most important thing (FOR ME ) is that in 2008 - 2010, there is a STI Sedan !!!! How many possibilities are there that the new STI is Sedan ???? THX .....

Probably likely since the new Evo is going to be a sedan

Oh, I think anybody saying Subaru STis look ridiculous is spot-on. I might take issue with somebody saying they're slow, but they've got yellow wheels, for god's sake. I'd say that makes them fair game.

Lime green wheels > gold wheels.

Lord, what had lime green wheels? Stratos? It'd have to be Italian anyway.

huh? This source doesnt seem very well informed.

Nissan has started to do this with their CVT's... they have 6 programmed gear ratios which, when placed in a "manumatic mode" will allow you to shift gears like in every other mannabe sports car. I SERIOUSLY doubt that Subaru will adopt this technology, especially in a high performance capacity.

Id still own one in spite of that fact I must be a fanboy lol.

Very good question indeed. It's said because of the safety regulations. But can't designer really think of good solutions? There are examples out there that it can be done.

I dont view it a bad thing most people who buy these cars end of modifying them eventually.....This will just make sure it happens sooner rather then later i guess lol.
