Oh no, I'm not questioning the fact that people like yours at the car shows. What I'm saying is that the crowd at a car show isn't indicitave of the general population. There are far more people who know nothing about cars than there are who go to car shows. The average person in the US buying a car won't even understand why there's a scoop on the hood, even if you explain it to them.

Exactly. I've shown pictures to at least a dozen people in that age bracket who said exactly the same thing.

Yeah. When was the Wicked Big Meet?

The Subaru guy that's here mentioned that he's been taking it to car shows.

it was june 17th outside of boston

I don't care what anyone says, I think it looks good.

The link below has a dual exhaust, wtf? Also, it's mid corner and seems to have plenty of wheel gap.

^----thank you!!!

The first person to buy an STi at Ertle in Stroudsburg was in his mid 60's and requested the spoiler be take off. All I am saying is the car isn't going to appeal to the older generation anyway. So you might as well leave the aggressive nature of the car intact. They didn't do it with the Lancer, Subaru didn't do it with the Legacy. So why take your peformance car and slowly kill it?

because subaru wants more money.

wait till it comes out. its not going to be killed. people still miss the turbo era of the early 90s. we will take what we can get. The MS3 sells like crazy. ANd people love AWD so why not. I like it alot. it has great interior styling and the outside still looks good to me. Its no blob eye but what are you gonna do.

the ms3 is a far superior car to the new wrx... we'll have to see about the sti.

oh i beg to differ greatly on that. I couldnt possibly see how it is. except a higher HP rating. have you driven one. whoa understeer!

i cant say i have driven one... im just going on reviews from all over the place saying the car is fantastic... and i personally found the stock wrx's ive driven to be ****ing boring.

i find that most sti owners that i find on the road are either bald or completely gray. so i dont know what your talking about. some of them even have catbacks. i have atleast 4 customers of my own that are in the 30- 70 year range.

Ok and that would explain why you like the look of the 08. The interior looks great......in a Tribeca.

what about me iam half bald and half gray and half old lol

i like the hatch look but i hate the way the front end looks

So is this actually a new chassis or is it just a reskinning?

My thoughts exactly, boring and uninspiring to drive. The great AWD grip can only save the car so much, but the base WRX needs a lot of work in the fun department.

how does that explain it at all? please dont generalize.

im pretty sure its an all new chassis... but we all know how much subaru loves to carry stuff over...

and i agree the base wrx is very uninspiring... it just doesnt make enough power or have enough feel to make it "fun"

Ok to be specific, the new WRX is being criticized for looking like a Mazda with a hoodscoop. You said the MS3 is the best car out there. They are visually similar, and while a lot of people can't stand how the 08 looks, you like it. Now we put it all together and get, you like that style in a vehicle. Do you get it now?

fwd makes baby jesus cry
