In real life it may not be as bad.
The front grill, or whatever its called, looks a bit PT-cruiser
like to me, which I don't like. Overall, it may be a very functional,
roomy design, it certainly seems to have excellent driver visibility
- plenty of glass all around. The rear is somewhat weird,but lets
not forget its a Subaru, and I bit of quirkiness, or whatewer
is the proper word, is going to be pleasing for many of us.

You're right, many vehicles are posed/shot from low angles. Even the
'samurai face' of my '06 is less objectionable when viewed by an upright
human in person. Plus there will be aftermarket grills and other bits
folks will take advantage of to alter any cosmetic treatments.

when dealing with long URLs I recommend tinyurl.com (there is a handy
firefox plugin too)
e,g, your ling got shortened to http://tinyurl.com/ys4gdm

How uninspiring. And what the hell is with the brown interior?!? Suddenly
all pre-'08 Impreza's just jumped in value! I'll take an '04, '05 or '06 WRX
thank you very much. Hell, even the bug-eyed WRX was beuatiful in
comparison.

I am aware of Tinyurl but in todays drive by hijackings you can't be sure what you are going to get if you use
them. |

wishful thinking. Not even the new awd elantra from FHI
is as ugly as the bug eyed impreza front end.
They spent all the steam fixing tribeca with no energy
left for the impreza. I wonder why they had to change
it since it's obvious that 04-07 looks better than 08.
Get the 05 skin back, please. |

come on, 05 skin sucketed too. IMHO, the best ever was first generation
shape. I still see many RS 2.5 and they are the coolest looking cars. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
