Funny I actually think the rear is a big improvement..the side profile stinks and the nose looks better suited to a hatch BUT I think I could forgive the ugly looks with this because its a saloon...glad they didn't' add that huge spoiler from the USDM version...I'm emailing my local dealer now to blag a test drive.
Suppose the thing with the spoiler is you can always spec it, I'm sure it will be an option, be interesting to see how many people do actually spec it.
It is growing on me, the looks can be changed, i'm sure there are going to be plenty of aftermarket lips, bumpers, spoilers and scoops to please the masses
my mate was in a garage today and seen one Dealership is called "Bulldog Subaru" in Twyford just outside Reading
pictures below
says it looks a bit weird without the spoiler but also was unsure how it would look with a big one also
lovely exhausts on he said different to the ones on the hatchback
i much prefere it without a high spoiler much more sleak looking and would prob appeal to alot more people that dont really no their cars without the big wing
Think about it in silver, carbon fibre Bonnet, carbon wrapped roof, large wheels, lowered on coilovers with large amount of camber on front wheels
Nice carbon fibre front lip and grill with a subtle carbon fibre spoiler!!!!!
prefer the hatch also now
