New wrx in the photo looks like a bad take on a celica at that angle.
Al least the back end. The scoop doesn't look right with the rest of the car.
I agree this is a really uninspired design by subaru. It looks cheap. Makes me sad.

AutoExpress Magazine is like the National Enquirer of car magazines. They have been known to create images with PhotoShop and pass them on as official. That picture is not real, the final design of the 2007 Impreza has yet to be seen. That picture was created from taking bits of rumors and information from different sources and slapping a modded STi front to a Celica. One rumor that seems to be flying around is that it will definitely be a hatchback.

that thread has tons of pics flying around bout the new WRX i cant read what they're saying though...

some of them are ok but i like Grim's drawing better than those concepts

Here's yet another illustration by a car magazine, it proves that for now it's all speculation so don't go by the first photo you see.

On a side note, this is a decent rendering. With some time and patience I think any of us can get this good.



The Photochop on that magazine cover is based on this illustration that popped up about a month ago in a Japanese magazine.

Oh dear!
^That's ugly!^

I mean the rendering style is great and very professional but the cars design is just... boring. What the hell tells me it's a Subaru?
Probably only the small sign on the hood...

[GrimBeaver]

it seems it has gone hatchback... *sigh

[bonzelite]

your subie design is neat. i'm waiting for the next step from you.

the concept magazine subie is pretty gay. the concpet car's headlights ruin
it for me.

Dammit...why does the Impreza have to change again? I've always been a fan of the Impreza...since 1998. The best Impreza imo is the bug-eyed one with JDM black housing headlights. The peanut eye one right now isn't too bad, I like both. But the one on magazine covers look like crap. And literally...crap.

[GrimBeaver]

does the right side of my bumper look better now?

[teazR]

looks like they have a celica rear, daewoo front and citroen lights on that... yuk

[lostprophets]

i really hate to bring up dead threads but since we all seemed curious about it i think i should clear things up

car&driver does alot of testing around here and just today an event down at Michigan International Speedway (6 miles away from me)
i was sitting on the porch and the new impreza drove by

looks like that but the lights are all one piece and the spoiler is larger and at a 45 degree angle

just thought i'd update the world

Here's a bigger picture of the actual car...

bingo! thanks teaz

neat car. very nice makeover, i'd say. it'd be even more gnarly with deeper-dished wheels and dropped.

that link with pic makes a nice desktop.
