i think the hatch look just doesnt match the evo or the sti's appeal. Thus i have no idea why Subaru made the sti a hatch?!?!?!?!?!?! It seems like more of the wannabe import fanatics prefer the sti cuz it looks more badass, idk. So, this just baffles me. and im soo very curious how the sales are really gonna turn out. Same with the evos, IMO anti rally look

If I had a wrecked evo I would definitely consider looking for a nice sportback and doing this. The ultimate sleeper. From the looks of it, the bumper and quarters are the parts that would be hard to get. Funny, looking for a pic if the rear i noticed this sportback has a US size plate. When I mounted my JDM rear, I had to alter the license plate bracket to mount my plate. I wonder if there is a factory bracket available for a us size plate on a JDM bumper.Hmmmm.

i don't like the evo wagon. ugly. i would actually go with a subie wagon before an evo wagon based on looks alone.
it would be the wifes ride anyway, not mine.

I think about this swap every month or so. There's one of those yeller wagons in my neighborhood and whenever I see it I start fantasizing ... If I had money to burn it would be such a fun project.
I'd grab one of the Evo IXs I keep reading about on this forum; you know, the ones that just suddenly leap off the road and hit a tree FOR NO REASON, and make the switch ... it would be such the awesome sleeper.
