I don't know if this has been posted already but it's pretty cool:

Also Pistonheads have just written about the new Coupe with Toyota:

A bit like a focus. But with some tweeks it could be all good.

Looks a bit like a toned down P2

Maybe there'll be one afterall

It looks like a shrunken version of the recently facelifted Mondeo. Its not bad but I fail to see how this could be even remotely described as a concept. If it appeared in Autocar back in 1990 described as a concept that would make more sense, but in 2011, really?

Why would anyone consider buying this car new with their own hard earned cash over anything else? If all it has under the bonnet is the all new phase 3 boxer, an engine which is already hopelessly off the pace in terms of co2, mpg and power then I'm afraid the future for aspiring owners of new Imprezas looks bleak and you should mind your Classics and New Age Imprezas extra well!

A more detailed report that Car & Driver did at the Los Angeles Motor Show 2010:

I'd rather stir sloppy seconds with a wooden spoon than use a CVT!

It's madness I can't see any reason for it unless they are trying to trick young buyers into thinking it's a DSG
