Front is ok but it's undersized wheels and profile are poor.

The earlier 2 door design idea was better than this

Mmm. A bit bland, though it's the wrx not Sti so I dare say the Sti may look a bit more aggressive. I think this is just a stop gap though before a completely revamped 2015 model is launched. I hope so anyway!!!

A lot of nice cars have had their 5 minutes in the limelight, unfortunately the Impreza has had its 5 minutes and now its just another car.

As the article says, it could even be mistaken for a Korean car I think.

The Mitsi Evo's are pretty well dead in my eyes as well, Ford Cossies gone and RS's good but not mind blowing. VW have lost the GTi thing.

So what now? Well we will have to spend more, AMG, Nissan Skyline, BMW M cars still?

I wish I had discovered Scoobies sooner, I really liked them when they came out, but felt they just got the Hooligan/Chav reputation too quickly which then put me off them totally. It was only by accident that I got my wagon, and initial impression was one of huge disappointment, until I had my little fettle with it, now I love it.
