I've seen a RS and a STI. I think the look suits the RS. However for the STI, just doesnt look tough.

If anyones intersted my best mate is selling a 2007 STI, the last model before this monstrosity. Got to love the huge rear wing :D

The reason they went to the "hatch" look is to attract a new female market...hence all the hatch impreza's...they are looking to release the sedan at a later stage...but it really just looks like a kia

Wow, that really does look shit....and there is a lady behind the wheel, that says it all.

Better :)

That's just cheating, of course a race focus will look good :kiss:

Adz you suck, go home!

Oh and i don't think it liked the track, it made loads of understeer noise into turn 4, it just didnt look as fast as the older sti's

That particular car didn't like being started after sitting in the paddock after a few laps either. As soon as it started, it was puffing a cloud of oil smoke out it's rear for a good 10-15 seconds before it cleared up.

Yep... ball-less, unispiring, souless piece of shit... Worst WRX ever made!

And with 2 weeks in Japan i saw 6 R35 GT-R's and 1 STi Betty (the new WRX has earnt the nickname "Ugly Betty")... Subaru is on a real winner :kiss:

ive only ever seen the rs model of the new subaru. i like the look of the rally version though but i love the old look you knew it was a wrx with the big rear wing and the large hood scoop they were great. the bug eyed model isnt the worst model anymore either. do you think they will quickly change the shape again like they did with the bug eyed version or is this what they will look like from now on and never have that boy racer look ever again.

there are a few floating around sydney however they just dont standout like WRX's of old.. They look just like every other car out there...You tend to only notice them if you are deliberately looking for one

that looks like a camry!!!!!!! :D

on the roads, the hatch looks ok - but on the track.....just looks soooo wrong.....

I hate the new look of the SUBARU range!!

I had to pretend I liked them at the Motorshow when I worked there this year!

..and, we didnt recieve many good compliments or feedbacks either. Most people were like wdf?

But the new design of the STI was because they were aiming it for woman in their mid 30s-40s and for mums. Why? I duno lol but it worked coz so many older woman were loving the car and the younger age group and men hated it.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
