Hanger Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Sedan Version the bumper kinda reminds me of JDM Legacy Spec B bumper? the body line reminds me of a Corolla? the side body line definitely screams BMW 3 series And there's something about the rear design, like something you would see on a Hyundai or Kia (Kia Rio to be exact XP) Hatchback Version the body lines reminds me of a Tribeca especially at the ass section, the rear lines indicates lines from a Honda Fit the rear end reminds of much like the BMW X3 with the tail lights and the rear roof spoiler.. ○ ○ ○ Instagram: itshangertime :spin: ○ ○ ○ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTWILLY Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Definately not too happy with the stock look, but I wait to finalize my thoughts until I see one lowered nicely with some personal touches like wheels, lips, tint... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godwhomismike Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 The sedan doesn't look that bad. The wagon on the other hand looks like an aborted fetus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_KT Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I'm going to get lynched for saying this, but I like the looks of the new sedan. Albeit, not as much as the 2002-2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natheya Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 The darker grey one looked pretty cool. I also think the new back is better than the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRAC3 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 ugh, an 02 Chevrolet Malibu Grill(now called the Classic for the rental car companies) , weird high cheeckbones impeding into the headlights... goofy looking "CARS" kinda grin... no need to Pchopp in a smile, just the eyes in the windshield. styling stolen from pretty much everything on the road, and not the good parts either... did chris bangle start working for Scooby as a side project?

showbo Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 One of two things, i forsee happening. 1. Alot more LGT owners will come about. 2. Subaru sales will drop so much, Subaru will have to file bankrupt. GL SOA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opie Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I like it alot...best Impreza since the GC days... Although a lot of "purist's" may dislike it, I think the mainstream customer will like it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elle Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 and that's a problem because? http://www.pistonheads.com/pics/news/11855/ford_focus_st_2005-L.jpg it's bad because it used to be a subaru that looked like a subaru. now it's a subaru that looks like a ford focus.

ghibli99 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I still hate the tails on the new Impreza hatch (and the sedan's backside is hideous), but the scoopless 2.5i hatch looks pretty damn nice to me: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1235682 http://www.smugmug.com/photos/140768869-M.jpg http://www.smugmug.com/photos/140769463-M.jpg Interior is nicely upgraded and more 'Beca-like: http://www.smugmug.com/photos/140768446-M.jpg New Legacy rear is looking aight, too: http://www.ftwracing.us/subaru/2008/2008%20014.jpg -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerboa113 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I'm afraid we need to read our last rights.. as 2008 is the death of a long running great in the industry.. the WRX.. this once great vehicle has been replaced by a mazda 3 with lexus RX suv taillights, and a corolla front clip. I blame Toyota and their recent involvement in the company. but I dont know if their evil overseeing "brown bag UGMOBILE only" policy leaked into our great commuinity or what. I think an engineer who fell and hit his head on the edge of a table and suddenly decided "I have an idea.. lets take a car with GREAT sales and a huge following AND DESTROY IT!" is responsible here. or maybe someone wants to suicide the company. Whoever signed off on this disgraceful design.. I think we all need to write a letter to the company petitioning that he be kicked in the balls by every owner of a subaru for the last 10 years. I mean sure.. the Tribecca is ugly.. I'll give it that.. but its UNIQUE in its ugliness.. this thing is every other damn car on the road.. "nothing to see here folks.. keep moving" if I sound a little sour, I am.. I found out yesterday when showing a firend of mine here at work who just purchased an 07 wrx (ftw!) nasioc.. its on their main page.. and we quickly found the post about it.. I was simply appauled. its kinda like when you trust someone as a friend or something.. and then they steal money from you.. its that kind of insult for subaru to do this IMO. If the legacy takes this path in the next few years.. I will NOT be considering a subaru as my next purchase at all. oh yea.. and heres one more thing: http://www.caranddriver.com/assets/image/2007/Q2/040220071521237840.jpg http://a904.g.akamai.net/7/904/506/v0011/www.autobytel.com/images/carcom/05_Toyota_Corolla_XR5/400/05_Toyota_Corolla_exfrpass34.jpg "The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men." - Plato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
