That's a travesty.

They took the current WRX, a gorgeous vehicle that was stylish and functional looking, and turned it into JAR (just another ricer).

Well, its better looking than the thing it replaces. The first facelift was really good lookinf, the second, not so much.

It looks like a Mazda 3 and a Kia Spectra 5 had some kinky play time sex in a subaru factory and that came out.

I was saying the same thing but I wasn't too fond of the models with the round headlights just as well. Maybe it looks better in person? I'll take a look at the NY Auto show.

Hopefully for my viewing pleasure there won't be any of these in WRC or RallyCross.

Subaru has their own unique body styling, that i really like, but this is just wrong. :| But it isn't a bad looking car in itself. :wink:

As a huge fan of Mazda, I rather like it. I always thought the WRX could use a bit of a face lift. This latest model is, at minimum, a step in the right direction.

I've been a longtime fan of the WRX, but this latest version has lost a lot of the character that was inherent in the styling. Looks too mainstream for my tastes now. :(
