davey l wrx Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Different but i wouldn't say no. It would need a decent engine in it, not the item they fitted to the BRZ. Oh and a rear spoiler of some description, just a small one would do. Is it just me or does it look like a 4 door version of the car Prodrive (P2 i think) made a few years ago!

g1983 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Very Mondeo'y, 4 door anyway, similar lines. Maybe Ford drafted up a Mondeo RS, bringing back the old Sierra Cosworth, 2 door too Link to comment

spect Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Kind of 4 door cross breed between BRZ and Ford Mustangy kinda thingy - If it looks like that then YESSSSSS for me Link to comment
tbtstt Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Angular & aggressive: the things the Evo-X and GT-R got right and the "sharkeye" didn't. I think this looks the nuts! Just lose those back doors now Subaru... Link to comment

dabiscuit Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Looks nice, but can't help think its lost some its wrx'ness. I know its not a replacement for the impreza but it still be nice to have a rally bred car Link to comment
ccrien Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 What if its really a HATCH. Ha ha. Can't tell from those angles. Link to comment
The Don Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 What if its really a HATCH. Ha ha. Can't tell from those angles. Just need to look at the rest of the pictures in the links......... Link to comment
ccrien Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Thanks again Don, I hadn't looked at the links. You mean the whole rear windows and boot lip opens up? Squint and its bit like a Vauxhall calibra Needs fair bit more ground clearance for UK roads. More likely to see this one on circuits than forests. not sure that's ideal but may be way things are going. Sorry, still undecided, colour and badges are great, front a bit square and mustang-esque, needs to grow on me, Or actually get a bit smaller /nimbler. Edited March 27, 2013 by ccrien Link to comment

t5nyw Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Still think the TBH05 hybrid will be oug before this Link to comment
dabiscuit Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 It does look like that prodrive car. I thought the impreza "replacement" was going to be a hatch back. I remember Don had found some pics Link to comment
