Gav

Don't suppose you've any more details do you... one's that could possibly make it into TG? :lol:

Rather have the JDM with the 2.0 and better spec. UK 2.5 with its chocolate pistons and cardboard ringland would last until the end of the Karrousel

Goes well with Tommy McKinnon behind the wheel and looks proper Impreza instead of Rover 25/Focus/Prius thingy we have the now

OOOfffft!! Controversial as always Grant! HAHA. I have to admit, its nice to have a Saloon back bearing a Subaru badge without it being a Legacy.

Still prefer the hach TBH :lol:

Well said that man :lol:

I like the looky of the new saloon, it's a modern design.

The Hatch is far superior than the saloon regardless of looks 24/7 period.

Oh look i have a cute wee boot in the saloon or a dirty great bear's cave loadsaroom in the hatch and thats why i like it.

If it comes down purely to how a car looks then i am sorry but every Subaru look sh!te, saying that i didn't buy the car for looks :lol:

Each to their own i suppose, i should sell up & buy a R8 instead :lol:

Looks rather Evo'ish to me............especially around the rear!

Should be interesting to see what it is like when it arrives on our shores!

I thought it was an Evo in the first pic!

Looks like an Evo/Mondeo hybrid!

Still better than the hatch tho.

Nice.

Nice video.. Another one here of the same day but different point of view:

Thoughts on the saloon model.

Front = Yeah!

Side = Evo

Rear = American (It was designed by an american afterall) Not great, very plain..

Overall It looks better than the hatch.. IMHO, Front I always liked.. Side, hatch style is takign some gettign used to.. Really flawed design on the rear of the hatch TBH.. No doubt the hatch should in theory handle better though..

Also interesting to read thoughts that despite subaru aiming to release more diesels in the next couple of years, including a Diesel STi along with their hybrid.. Theres definately a element that subaru are targeting more fast road track use with their cars rather than rallying.. So despite the apparent lul in the model (no offence intended) things could be looking good again in the next model, which could be more focussed to road use how about a JDM 4WD TOCA series between scoobies and evo's on teh track!.

... Just hope they get a decent designer to do the rear of the next mode! :lol:

Thats a nice Video there too Al! :thumbup: WTF with the truck at the start though! :o

I have to say, that I'm feeling the love more for this new one coming... not that I really dislike the hatch, I've started to come around to it, but its been a slow thing to happen, the new saloon I think is going back to where it belongs... There was always a hatch and a saloon along side each other, and often people have preference to one or the other, its just preference...

from the back it looks like an Hyundai (wtf) and for the front .... em .. like a hatch !!

the hatch is much nicer machine all together. ( almost as good as a classic :thumbup: )
