What a huge improvement over the current model. A little more adult. 330 horsepower for the regular WRX?

looks like they decided to just throw in the towel on ever being able to design a front end But at least they've copied the GTR/EvoX trend of squinty headlights... It looks like a forester that someone either pissed off or confused...

At least it's better than the original bug eye design. And let's face it, I still hear people who don't know what an EVO is thinking it's a Pontiac with a big wing slapped on so it's hypocritical for anyone driving one to criticize the styling of anything. Sounds almost funny. Like one ugly girl calling another one ugly.

Can't really tell much about the front end with all the masking on there. I don't think it can get too much uglier than the current model.


Of course the Tribeca makes me reconsider that statement.

Nah, im sure that is the STi model. I like the rear, but the front still is garbage.

The comments are pretty funny,
no more flying vagina frontend!

I think Top Gear has an episode of the "Prodrive Subaru STI" which is a REALLY a small hatchback and it flys!! 3 seconds faster than the EVO IX MR.
