2015 WRX STi pics leaked

Looks very EVOish to me and not feeling the side profile but with Carbon Fiber roof and some side skirts I think it could look possibly look nice

Funny because I was thinking the same thing as I scrolled through the pictures.

I don't find it aesthetically pleasing at all. Pretty bland, actually.


3/10, might bang if wasted. (saw it was on a 5 star basis, 1.5/5, still might bang if wasted)

I meant to give it a 3 but hit two by accident. Oops.

Either way, what a fucking letdown compared to the concept they teased.

They still doing that cheap toy car blue and gold wheels? Is it still 2002?

Honestly, I don't care how great those cars are, they are absolutely ugly as sin. Why is there a prerequisite for them to have to make the cars absolutely gawdy, tacky, and hideous looking? The Evo is right there too. I consider those two cars peas in a pod, and you have to be pretty hard up to actually want to own either of those boy racer plastic fantastics IMO.

This car is just straight up butt-ugly like all the other WRXs they have ever made.

Man such a missed opportunity. The concept was awesome looking. This new version looks too much the same as old, and the changes the DID make weren't in the right direction. I'll reserve final judgement until I see it in person, but if it's like the photos I can check this one off my list of future purchases.

Never liked the way they went after 2007. The entire Impreza line went to a big, bulky, blocky shape that looks more "Toyota" than Subaru. I think Toyota ruined the line.

horrible, made even worse by the fact that they teased a concept which looked damn good

I should have known not to trust Subaru. what a letdown.

Tail lights look different in both pics.

Either way, try again Subaru.

Except Subie seems to be trying to convince everyone that there won't be a wagon version of either the WRX or STI this time.

Is it weird that I think it looks worse than the prior (current) version?

I love the looks of the sedan STi but this looks like shit. The front and side profile are horrible and it looks like an econobox Honda.

For a Sedan I like it. I would like to see the wagon version. I would like to drive one with the new square stroke & bore boxer motor. There are some first drives of the WRX on Youtube.

Typical Subaru to have a disappointing production car following a great looking concept. I swear everybody hates the looks of the wrx when they first come out, but later will grow on them after seeing them on the street. Happens everytime.

I personally don't think it looks that bad... Probably would look a lot better wingless.
