WTF is this!!

wakeboarder109 · 12-20-2011, 10:56 PM

I've been a long term Subaru fan and owned a WRX when they first brought them to the states. I can't believe what they've done with the newest version. They are slowly killing this brand!

That is the new Impreza? Yeah, not liking it. They have been getting very, um, fat lately.

I agree. To the point it's starting to look like a pontiac vibe or minivan/wagon crossover.

immiketoo · 12-20-2011, 11:26 PM

I think it has some Mercedes SUV DNA in it. Yuck.

wisesoul · 12-21-2011, 03:28 AM

Good thing the WRX and WRX STI will be completely different models. They wont be based off of the Impreza anymore. Thank god

BMW269 · 12-21-2011, 05:21 AM

Subaru will have the BRZ as NA and RWD, and the WRX as FI and AWD. They are going to separate the WRX badge from the Impreza just like Nissan separated the GT-R badge from the Skyline.

I hadn't read that but that's good to hear. Still terrible looking none the less.

sanf · 12-21-2011, 09:42 AM

my cousin just got one. i just dont like their hatchbacks period. new or old

PINeely · 12-21-2011, 09:53 AM

Looks like a Pontiac Vibe/ Toyota Matrix. This car deserves better.

Silver-Bolt · 12-21-2011, 12:32 PM

It's the 2013 XV crossover.

Except when they're not. The F30 is larger, yet lighter than the E90.

fugly....

cloakster · 12-21-2011, 04:01 PM

Someone on my street just got one....sooo fucking ugly. The prev gen hatchback was sooo nice, how could the fuck up so bad?

Sylon · 12-21-2011, 08:23 PM

I am curious how one would look when someone mods the hell out of it.

johnL · 01-04-2012, 12:57 PM

maybe it looks better in other angles?

BMW269 · 01-04-2012, 01:51 PM

We'll see. This month at the Tokyo Auto Salon Subaru is going to reveal the Impreza G4 STI Concept. Don't get mistaken, it won't be the new WRX.

I'm not saying it is pretty, but this is one of worst angles I have seen. It looks better from street level, though not much.

As mentioned earlier, it is moving toward mass-market appeal, and the good stuff (WRX, STI) will be separated and hopefully look much better.

I have never LOLed at a legitimate car press photo. That's a first.
